Mohini rachitha  Krishna stotram

Translated by

P.R.Ramachander

 

(This very great and rare Stotra was brought to my notice by Mr.Justin Reynolds , a great devotee of Lord Krishna.

The stotra in Sanskrit is availablein, sanskritdocuments.org/all_pdf/mohinikrishnastotra.pdf.

It is supposed to be written by Mohini. Mohini is the incarnation of Lord Vishnu  on two occasions. The first one was to  prevent the nectar  got from churning the ocean falling in the hands of Asuras. He a lso took this incarnation to prevent Basmasura hurting Lord Shiva. No  where in the  stotra Lord Krishna  is mentioned directly ,

 The peculiarity of this stotra is that  it is  the only one that is known to me which helps a man get   married/Get married to his beloved.)

 

Mohinyuvacha:-

Mohini told:-

 

1.Sarvendryanam pravaram Vishnor amsam cha manasam,

Thadeva karmaanaam bheejam thad udhbhava namosthuthe.

10.Mohinithyeva mukthaathu manasa saa vidhe pura,

Vira rama namra vakthra bhaboova dhyana thathparaa.

 

 In the places of stay ,  Those who followed Mohini were liberated,

When they prayed with bent heads  and were interested in meditation

 

11.uktham madhyamdhino kanthe stotramethath manoharam,

Puraa durvaasasa datham mohinyai Gandha madhane.

 

Repeat   during  rnoon ,  oh dear ,   this stotra

 at  the  Gandha madhana  mountain.

Abheeshtam labhathe noonam , nishkalanko bhavathe dhruvam.

Without doubt his  wish  would be fulfilled ,

And he will   definitely  would become stainless.

 

13.Cheshtaam na kuruthe kama kadhachith api tham priyam,

Bhavedh arogi sri yuktha , kama deva sama prabha.

Vanitham labhathe sadhvim pathim  trilokya mohinim.

 

 Without taking any action , sometimes the loved one  would become  his own,

And he would be blessed with health and wealth  and shine like the God of love,

And  also  he would get the  pious lady who is  the mind stealer in the three worlds as his wife.  

 

 Ithi Sri Mohini krutham Krishna stotram  samaptham

  Thus ends the prayer to Lord Krishna composed by Mohini.
