Hare Krishna ,

 

A few years back,  a friend presented me a copy of `Narayaneeyam' ; and this divine book changed the course of my life .

 

`Narayaneeyam' is the condensation of Srimad Bhagavatam . It's composer is the renowned Sanskrit poet Melpathur Narayana Bhattathiri . He was affected with paralysis  and searched for a remedy. Ezhuthachan (The Father of Malayalam poetry ) advised him to start with fish. Normally, this means,  prescription of a  non-vegetarian diet ,  which is suicidal  for a Brahmin . However, the intelligent  Bhattathiri took it in the proper sense and decided,  to give an account of all sportive incarnations  of Sri Krishna,  beginning with the incarnation as fish (Matsya-avatara)  , as narrated in the Bhagavatham , in a series of Dasakas ( Groups of ten slokas) .

 

Bhattathiri sat at the feet of  Sri Krishna's Deity at Guruvayoor temple to compose a Dasaka  everyday ; and recited it to the Lord with great devotion . Bhagavan Krishna eagerly listened to his work daily and responded with occasional comments . Bhagavan even helped him once by giving a vision of the fierce sight of Narasimhavatara, as the poet could not figure it out .

 

After 99 chapters, on the 100th day,  Bhagavan Krishna appeared in front of the poet  in  all His glory . The last chapter is a live narration of this vision of Sri Krishna from head to foot. The poet  Bhattathiri  was immediately cured of his nagging ailment .  

 

Bhagavan Krishna's true   nature , philosophy as well as  the ideal conduct of His devotee are described in this divine book . Its parayana (reading) confers great benefits . `Narayaneeyam' enables the devotee to visualise and worship Bhagavn Krishna by reading  or listening  it .

 

It has been practically proved that ,  faithful daily reciting of `Narayaneeyam',  will cure all sorts of ailments,  including the  deadliest of diseases beyond the reach of medical science . Numerous Krishna-devotees are  undergoing the divine  treatment through  `Narayaneeyam'.    

 

Due to Bhagava's mercy , Sri . K.V.Gopalakrishna , the composer of  `Narayaneeyam' in English,  has joined us .   

 

As a humble Krishna-servant, I request all devotees to contact Sri.K.V.Gopalakrishna  to obtain copies of `Narayaneeyam' for  personal use and gifting  to others  .
