With blessings of His Holiness Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji it has been decided to perform

AKHANDA VISHNU SAHASRANAMA PARAYANAM

All our Acharyas, Sastras, Puranas always highlighted the ever powerful Sri Vishnusahasranaama Stothram. It is the means for solution to all ills not only prevailing in the society as a whole but also in any individual on account of various reasons including some grahadoshams. His Holiness Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji declared that the 108 slokas of Sri Vishnusahasranaama Stothram removes all the ills associated with any grahadoshams to anyone who chants irrespective of their Nakshatram (Stars viz. constellations) and provides supreme solace and supreme bliss. There are 27 Nakshatrams starting from Aswini and ending with Revati. Each Nakshatram has four Padams. Thus 108 slokhas correspond to 27 X 4 nakshatra padams. Thus a person born in Aswini 1st padam can chant first slokha, Bharani 1st padams can chant 5th slokha and so on for respective Nakshatra Saanthi. A person not sure of one's Nakshatra can chant all the 108 slokhas and get rid of all ills associated with one's Nakshatram and attain sampoorna saanthi.
