Vishnorashtavinshati naam stotram | विष्णोरष्टाविंशतिनाम स्तोत्रं

This stotram is the conversation between Lord Krishna and his devotee and friend Arjun, he asked to Lord Krishna about the names one should chant instead of sahastra names( meaning thousands of names), in order to get the complete fruit out of it. 

Sanskrit version of the chant is given below:

विष्णोरष्टाविंशतिनाम स्तोत्रं

। अर्जुन उवाच ।

किं नु नामसहस्त्राणि जपन्ते च पुन: पुन: । यानि नामानि दिव्यानि तानि चाचक्ष्व केशव ॥ १

॥ श्रीभगवानुवाच ॥

मत्स्यं कूर्मं वराहं च वामनं च जनार्दनम् ।

गोविन्दं पुंडरीकाक्षं माधवं मधुसूदनम् ॥ २ ॥

पद्मनाभं सहस्त्राक्षं वनमालिं हलायुधम् ।

गोवर्धनं ह्रषीकेशं वैकुण्ठं पुरुषोत्तमम् ॥ ३ ॥

विश्वरूपं वासुदेवं रामं नारायणं हरिम् ।

दामोदरं श्रीधरं च वेदांगं गरुडध्वजम् ॥ ४ ॥

अनंतंकॄष्णगोपालं जपतो नास्ति पातकम् ।

गवां कोटि प्रदानस्य अश्वमेधशतस्य च ॥ ५ ॥

कन्यादानसहस्त्राणां फलं प्राप्नोति मानव: ।

अमावस्यां वा पौर्णमास्यामेकादश्यां तथैव च ॥ ६ ॥

सन्ध्याकाले स्मरेन्नित्यं प्रात:काले तथैव च ।

मध्याह्ने च जपेन्नित्यं सर्वपापै: प्रमुच्यते ॥ ७ ॥

इति श्रीकृष्णार्जुनसंवादे विष्णोरष्टाविंशतिनामस्तोत्रं सम्पूर्णम ।

Arjuna asked: Which of these thousand names, should be chanted o Lord Krishna again and again, as most of the people often chant your thousands of names which is very fruitful, but instead of that would you tell me the names which are as pious as thoese thousands of names, and the fruit for the names should be similar to those of thousands of names, so that salvation can be attained just by this.

Lord Krishna Replied:  The names of the chant is given in the starting of the article, Lord Krishna replied: he who has lotus on his belly, he who has thousand of eyes, he who wears garland of forest flowers, he who has plough as weapon, he who looks after cows, he who controls five senses, he who lives in वैकुंठ (the abode of Lord Krishna), he who is the greatest among beings.  he who has world as his form, he who is son of Vasudeva, Rama, Narayana, Hari, he who is tied by a rope on his belly, he who carries Mahalakshmi, he who is Vedas, he who has a Eagle flag. He who is limitless, Krisha, he who looks after cows, Would make the one who chants these sinless. That man who reads this on full moon, new moon and Ekadasi, Would get the effect of giving away billions of cows, Performing Aswamedha yajna one hundred times. And Kanya daan fruit thousand times. He who read this daily at dusk, dawn and noon, Would get rid of all sins committed by him. 

Read this daily and get the benediction of lord.
