Shukracharya’s mother and Bhrigu Maharshi’s wife Devi Kavya realised that the attitudes of Danavas were fast drawing near Devatas and prayed to Devi Nidra to place all the Devas to a long spell of Nidra or sleep; Vishnu hid Indra and saved him but being very furious at the action of Kavya cut off her head; a highly angry Bhrigu no doubt revived Kavya back to life by his Power of Meditation but went to Vishnu and gave a curse that as a punishment to kill a virtuous woman, Narayana should suffer by taking continuous births as human beings with the absence of Lakshmi Devi for ever; On Vishnu’s sincere  apology, the curse was  lessened that Narayana should be born of human and other births in Martya loka by ten times and suffer his wife’s absence for a long spell of his life as a human being atleast once. That was why Vishnu as Lord Rama had to suffer Devi Sita’s absence for long in the custody of King Ravana];

(Shiva Kanyaavratapatih or Vishnu Bhagavan always protects the maidens engaged in performing Shiva Vratas;* Krishna Rupa Shivaariha or Vishnu saved Shiva from the latter’s antagonist  in Krishna Swarupa- [* The allusion was when Mahadeva gave away a boon to an ‘Asura’called Bhasmasura that whosoever or whatsoever was touched by the latter should be converted into ‘Bhasma’ or ash; then the Asura desirous of testing the boon sought to touch Shiva’s head and the latter had to run off from the Asura from pillar to post and finally approached Bhagavan Vishnu for help. Vishnu assumed the Swarupa of Mohini and enticed Bhasmasura into ‘natya’/ dance following the step-pattern of Mohini Natya; in the fast swirling dance,  Mohini made Bhasmasura to touch his own head and thus made the Asura converted into a heap of ash];

Tha latter requested Indra to let him sleep as long as he wished since he was too tired to fight any further. Indra granted the boon that none should disturb Muchukund’s sleep and if somebody did so that person would be burnt as ash. Muchukunda descended to Earth from Swarga and selected a mountain cave near Mathura to sleep. Meanwhile King Jarasandha attacked Mahura with the help of Kala Yavana the alien King of Yavanas with a colossal army;  an unruffled Krishna pretended that he was taking a walk before the commencement of the battle out side the Mathura fort. Quickly enough Kaala Yavana followed Krishna alone and unarmed and the latter entered a dark mountain cave and disappeared; Kalayavana tripped over the body of Muchukunda whose sleep got disturbed and opened his eyes while Kaala Yavana was burnt into a heap of ash! Muchukunda then had the sight of Bhagavan Krishna and prostrated before the Lord; Krishna instructed Muchukunda to proceed to Badarika -ashrama of Nara Narayana to perform Tapasya till the latter attained Mukti.]

Krishna visited the boy and while fondling the boy snipped of his third eye and two extra hands.Krishna disclosed that in future the boy was destined to be killed by himself. Srutadevi pleaded to Krishna to postpone the death as much as possible. Krishna promised that he would tolerate till the boy’s direct abuse to him uptil  hundred times only.

[ *Out of a prank, one of the Yadava boys called Saamba was dressed as a Garbhini or an Expectant Mother and a group of them enquired of some famed visiting Munis to Dwaraka as to whether the Garbhini would result in a by or a girl- pat come the terse reply of the Munis that the result of the conception would neither be a boy nor girl but would be a ‘Musala’ or Metal Rod which would destroy the entire Yadu Vamsha; the frightened prankster boys informed Vasudeva, Balarama and Krishna who realised that the termination of Yadu Vamsha was not far and on selective basis the heads of the Vamsha and families shifted to the Sacred Prabhasa Sthana, the ‘Garbhini’ youth did deliver a Mushala, the rest of remainder Yadavas tried to pound it into powder and threw it on the High Sea but the powder got collected back on the Sea shore and got materialised as high blades and stalks of sea plants with which the remaining Yadus killed each other thus totally demolishing traces of  Yadavas];

Ananagaha or Shiva’s opening his third eye out of anger that his Tapasya was disturbed ended up in Manmatha’s turning into a heap of ash but when Rati Devi argued that her husband’s death was unjustified, Shiva gave her the boon that Manmadha would be ‘Ananga’ or Formless but still she alone could see or touch her husband; Jita Gourishaha or Bhagavan Vishnu in the Swarupa of Pradyumna thus registered a victory over Shankara; Ratikantah or Bhagavan Krishna as his Son Pradyumna was the beloved of Devi Rati; Sadepstitah or the awarder of the wishes of the Virtuous; Pushpeshuh or His archery is with Flowers; Vishwa Vijayi or He is the emblem of Outstanding victories; Smarah or He is of insant appearance by even a mere thought; Kameshwari Priyah or the Beloved of Devi Rati in his Swarupa of Pradyumna; *Usha Patih or Bhagavan Krishna in the Swarupa of his Grandson Aniruddha ( the son of Pradyumna) was the husband of Usha Devi-

[* Devi Usha was the daughter of Banasura a dedicated devotee of Shiva; She fell in love with Aniruddha but Banasura objected to her wedding with for two reasons viz. Aniruddha was the son of Pradyumna and the latter was Manmadha in his previous birth whom Maha Deva burnt off by his third eye; the more forceful reason was that he was an ardent Shiva Bhakta and Shiva was supposed to be an anti-form of Narayana whose Avatara was Aniruddha’s grand father Krishna; Banasura who never realised that Shiva and Vishnu were merely two Forms of same and singular Paramatma;  when Aniruddha proposed Usha’s name to Banasura the latter put Aniruddha into prison; a furious war broke out between Krishna and Banasura and the former’s Sudarshana Chakra chopped off  the thousand hands of Banasura and was about to kill the Asura. Maha Deva appeared and addresssed Krisha to stop and withdraw the Sudarshana Chakra and declared to all concerned engaged in the battle theTrue Identity of Shiva and Narayana and requested Krishna to allow the wedding of Aniruddha and Usha besides removing the Illusion of Banasura that Shiva was  Narayana’s enemy that Krishna was the Avatara of Vishnu]

Phala Shruti:

The Recitation, Study, Hearing, and Perception of Vishnu Sahasra Naama has a lasting impact by way of providing Peace of Mind, self-condinence; freedom of tensions, good health, sense of fulfillment, and feeling of lasting relief. It offsets insecurity, failure of tasks taken up and discouragements all around; On the other hand it encourages determination, urge for action,  positive thinking, courage to face challenges and even failures. It also fosters resistance against excessive desire, passion and sensuality; it calms down sudden bursts of anger and impulse; it cuts down narrow mindedness and meanness; it negates arrogance and pride; and enhances the feeling of sharing and the value of giving.

Vishnu Sahasra Naama encourages  Tirtha Darshanas, Yagjna Homas, Vratas, Tapa-Japa-Danaas, and penchant to perform Annadi Daanas, deeds of public utilities and over-all viruosity. Finally the Sahasra Naama justifie s the none too easy birth of human birth and leads to the steps up to Salvation.
