Vishnu Sahasranama in Kannada

with 31 comments

I had set myself a goal of completing the transliteration of the Vishnu Sahasranama Stotra into Kannada during the long weekend here. Could not get started till Sunday evening and when I started, I thought of doing a few shlokas every day so I could complete it maybe in a week or ten days. But a sudden spike in interest led me to finish it in less than 24 hours. You can download the same from here. I would be grateful if any mistakes/corrections are pointed out. Please leave a comment here with your feedback. I have also uploaded some daily prayer shlokas at the same location.

  3. Oops…I can’t find any site offering a Kannada version of Durga Saptashathi. That puts it on my radar :-) But I have not had initiation into reciting this and so am not sure when I could get it ready. Will surely try and transliterate it.

    Thanks for your nice comment about my blog.

  8. Namaskara Vishwas,

    I don’t think there is a website offering Durga Saptashati in Kannada.

    I will do it myself but it could be several weeks before I put it up. Maybe I will start by uploading the individuals chapters.

    Thanks, Hari

  13. Hi Hari,

    Dhanyawadagalu,

    Do we have the meaning of Vishnu sahasranama in kannada, I guess it makes more sense when chanting these mantras if we know the meaning. I know it’s a mammoth job but just wondering if anyone has scanned it from a good publisher.

  17. Dear Hari,
    You have done a very good job. I ended up at this site searching for the “Meaning / Translation of ” each paragraph. We have several books on Kannda translations of Vishnu sahasranama. Do you plan to translate the sanskrit meaning into kannda?
