Narayanastakam by Kuranarayana Svami

December 12, 2015/ Kausthub Desikachar

Narayanastakam is a beautiful poem of eight verses, composed by the great acarya Kuranarayana Svami, who lived in the 14th-15th century AD. He is known to be a great devotee of Lord Narayana and all of his auspicious attributes. He has been an important acarya to propogate the teachings of Visista-Advaita, and especially the path of Prapatti or divine surrender.

This melodious chant, honors lord Narayana and glorifies all of his positive and auspicious attributes. It also affirms that the path to realize the highest truth is surrendering to the divine reality, and reiterates this strongly.
