I know that Sage Parasara has prescribed recitation of the Vishnu Sahasranama many times for the appeasement of planetary constraints.

I would like to know people's experiences by reciting this Strotram.

Please respond if you have experiences with this Strotram and/or know of other peoples responses to devoting their time to recite it.

Thank you,

GSK

Namashkaar gsk ji

I dont recite but listen it when ever i travel, I do not listen for appeasement but i like it very much.

Hey ,
I remember very well that KN Rao ji is a big  big fan of Vishnu sahastranam.
When asked about remedy he only goes for 3 of the mantras/strotas and this is one of them.

As per him it can solve any of the troubles in life and shud be treated like remedy for almost everything.

He also prefers it to chant them on ur own instead of geting it done by someone else..
Makes sense to me

Raman Deep Singh

I didn't know before today that KN Rao has given this recommendation...

I have mentally read (as opposed to chanted) the Vishnu Sahasranam quite a few times....but never more than once a day....quite intermittently as well

I feel calmer on those days....and more adept at solving my problems...

And its not just the meditation/puja effect...as there are other books that I read as well....but nothing compares

Over a period of time as I have realised this, now on the days when I am expecting trouble, I try to make time to read the Vishnu Sahasranam

Here is a Youtube Video that  in Sanskrit and in English Transliteration helps you recite the Vishnu Sahasranama. I hope everyone uses this video as it will help you methodically help chant.
