"Vishnu Sharanam" means “I seek refuge in Lord Vishnu” or “I surrender to Lord Vishnu.” It is a deeply spiritual expression of devotion and surrender to the Supreme Preserver of the universe. This idea of surrender is beautifully echoed in the Vishnu Sahasranama, a revered compilation of the 1,000 names of Lord Vishnu, revealed by Bhishma to Yudhishthira in the Mahabharata. It is said that defeat can never touch one who adores the Lotus-Eyed One (Kamala Nayana), the Master of all worlds, the birthless source of all creation and dissolution. The recitation of these divine names purifies the mind, freeing it from evil thoughts, the very first step toward attaining inner bliss and true happiness. Other benefits include mental clarity, emotional stability, healing from illness, relief from fear and suffering, and even liberation (Moksha). It bestows lasting prosperity, fame, and peace. Saying "Vishnu Sharanam" is not just a phrase, it's a powerful declaration of surrender and the beginning of a spiritually fulfilling path.
Hindus have a few gods but their main god is called Brahman. Brahman is divided into another 3 gods :- Brahma - The creator ( Brahma is the least worshipped of the 3 main Gods, he has 4 heads and recites the Vedas) Vishnu - The preserver ( Vishnu is worshipped under several names. This is because he has different appearances, He comes to earth in 9 bodies and the most famous are Krisha and Rama ) Shiva - The destroyer ( Shiva is worshipped by about a quarter of Hindus. He is the God who destroys so he controls death and even life. Although he can be frightening he is also thought of being kind, he has 4 hands to show he holds life and death and good and evil ) Hope that helps !
