श्री राम राम रामेति... -देवसुत
Ram Laxman Sita Hanuman
श्री राम राम रामेति रमे रामे मनोरमे ।सहस्रनाम तत् तुल्यं रामनाम वरानने ॥
English Transliteration:
śrī rāma rāma rāmeti rame rāme manorame |
sahasranāma tat tulyaṃ rāmanāma varānane ||
Meaning:
In chanting his (Rāma's) name again and again, 'śrīrāma rāma rāma, I discover joy in Lord Rāma who pleases my heart and whose face is a blessing. His name is equal to the one thousand names of Lord Vişhnu.
Background Story:
This sloka was actually disclosed by Lord Shiva himself to Pārvati.
Once, Pārvati became alarmed at the ignorance and the agonies faced by common people. When God imparted the Vishnu Sahasranamam as the only remedy for people to get rid of their worldly sins and troubles, Pārvati grew worried and felt concern for the ordinary person who would not be able to recite those 1,000 names of Vishnu.
So, she approached Lord Shiva with her concern. It was then that Lord Shiva disclosed the power of the word "Rāma". He tells her that taking the name of "Rāma" three times is equal to the recitation of the entire Vishnu Sahasranamam (the thousand names of Vishnu).
