(In Chapter 27 of Sri SaiSatCharita, Baba says to Shama - "Oh Shama, this book is very valuable and efficacious, so I present it to you, you read it. Once, I suffered intensely and My heart began to palpitate and My life was in danger. At that critical time, I hugged this book to My heart and then, Shama, what a relief it gave me! I thought that Allah Himself came down and saved Me. So I give this to you, read it slowly, little by little, read daily one name at least and it will do you good.")
The Vishnu Sahasranama is found in the great epic MahaBharata authored by Sri Veda vyasa. 'Sahasra nama' means thousand names, so this is a chant of thousand names of Lord Vishnu. Through all this names we get 1000 indirect and indicative definitions of the unknown supreme lord in terms of the known. There are exactly 1031 names of Lord Vishnu in the 'Sahasranama' and we find some repetitions also. Since this is a chant of glory repetitions are generally accepted.
The Benefits:
This chanting has been prescribed by sastras for warding of troubles arising from the position of stars, planets, anger of rulers, incurable diseases and ruthless enemies. Moreover this purifies mind there by letting one gain more inner poise for meditation
