Śrī Nṛsiṁsahasranāma: a Thousand Beautiful Holy Names of Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva

Śrī Nṛsiṁhasahasranāma contains a thousand Holy Names of Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva, the half-man-half-lion incarnation of Kṛṣṇa, which are the remedy for the suffering of materially conditioned existence. Śrī means beautiful on account of being full of spiritual qualities; Nṛsiṁha is the Sanskrit Name of God, the omnipotent, omnipresent Creator and Master of the universe, in His half-man, half-lion incarnation; and sahasra-nāma means a thousand Names. So Śrī Nṛsiṁhasahasranāma means “A thousand spiritually beautiful Names of Lord Nṛsiṁha.“ Actually God is unlimited, and therefore He has an infinite number of Holy Names. These thousand Names are just the most prominent and beneficial of Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva’s Holy Names. They are so powerful that anyone who simply hears or chants them regularly, with faith, becomes relieved of all material suffering. This is our direct personal experience. How is this possible? By the power of transcendental sound. All this wonderful knowledge is available in book form, and you can read it online, download or purchase the hard copy of Śrī Nṛsiṁsahasranāma at
