Sri Saligrama Stothram

                           Sri Saligrama Stothram

Saligram Sila, mostly found in Gandaki river running to the South of Himalyas. Saligrama Silas are considered to be icons of Lord Vishnu in his various Avatars and Names.                                             

A Saligram Sila that has the marks of Conch (Shangu), Wheel (Chakra), Gada and Padam is considered to be a shape of Keshava, one of the Nmaes of Lord Vishnu. There are 24 permutations of these four marks, each shape having a unique name of Lord Vishnu.

Saligram Stothram is part of Bhavishyoththara Puranam and an outcome of discussions between  Lord Krishna and Yudhistira. Lord Krishna teaches the significance of worshiping Saligram Sila.

Here is a presentation of Sri Saligrama Stothram.
