Stotras (स्तोत्रम्) with Acharya Vishweshwara N M
All courses › Stotras
Vishnu Sahasranama, Lalita Sahasranama and the great stotras, chanted correctly and understood.
A stotra is meant to be chanted every day, so it’s worth learning it right, once and for all.
I teach line by line, with clean pronunciation and the right rhythm of the metre, and I explain the meaning so the words never become just sounds.
How I teach stotras
Line by line
You hear the line, you repeat it, I correct it. We build the stotra a few lines at a time.
Metre and rhythm
Every stotra has its chandas. Chanting in the right metre makes it flow, and makes it easier to remember.
The meaning
Long compound names are opened up word by word, so you know whom you are praising and how.
Making it daily
We help you settle the stotra into your daily routine, so it stays with you.
