Jai Srimannarayana Bhajan (1 Hour)

The name, Na:ra:yana means one who is the supporter of all beings from within and from around (Na:ra = all na:ras, i.e. groups of all elements that constitute any being + Ayana = one who is the aadharam, the base)! Thus, we refer to God as Narayana! Because of the additional qualities that make him approachable and loving, he is referred to as Sriman Narayana, where Sri means all qualities that are evoked out of extreme love, everything that is good and kind!

Other names such as Vishnu, Kesava, Govinda are all also earned names based on what he is and what he does! These names are recognised as comparatively less and more powerful based on what the name describes and to how closely the name reflects him in entirety. There is not a single name that does the job entirely, but Sriman Narayana encapsulates the maximum that one can perceive through a noun!

He supports and permeates into the smaller than the smallest. He supports and surrounds the larger than the largest. This reflects the all-pervasiveness quality of God while being the supreme supporter! That is why, the name Narayana is said to reflect the meaning of God. Jai Srimannarayana!

God is one from whom the entire existence emanates. He is the one who is the sole supporter of the entire existence. He is the one who absorbs, and yet preserves all the existence as is in a minute form for re-creation.

God is the one who has all qualities that can protect every being. Protection cannot be confined to mere saving from a temporary hazard or illness, but uplifting one from the state of temporary pleasures to the state of eternal bliss!

God is the one who listens, who comes forward when sought out with complete submission!

God is the one who has complete supremacy and yet fully accessible!

God is the one who is not only accessible but also beautifully affable!
