శ్రీ తులసీ స్తోత్రమ్

Salutations to mother of the universe, Who is the darling wife of Lord Vishnu, And due to you only, Brahma and others, Are engaged in creation, upkeep and destruction.

Salutations to the benevolent Tulsi, Salutations to the holy darling of Vishnu Salutations to goddess giving salvation, Salutations to her who grants wealth.

Oh Tulsi, daily protect me, Always from all dangers, For you make than one holy, Who sings or thinks about you.

I prostrate with my head before the Goddess, Who gives brightness to our body, And seeing her, the sinful humans, Would get rid of all sort of sins.

Tulsi protects all, The universe with its movable and immovable, And when a man who is a sinner, Sees it, it destroys all his sins.

Salutations to Tulsi the great, Who removes the bondage of Kali age, And it blesses with a pleasant life, To women and the merchant class.

There is nothing in this world, As divine as Tulsi, For it makes the world pure, And blesses Vaishnavas, With company of Lord Vishnu.

In the kali age, If thulasi lea, Is offered to the head of Vishnu, It is same thing as receiving, The blessings of Vishnu on your head.

Always in the Tulsi plant, All gods live forever, And so worshipping Tulsi, Is same as worshipping all devas.

Salutations to all knowing Tulsi, Who is the consort of Lord Vishnu, Save me from all the sins. Oh bestower of all sort of wealth.

This prayer was composed, By Pundareeka the able one, Who worshipped lord Vishnu daily, By the divine leaf of Tulsi.

Oh Tulsi, Oh Mahalakshmi, Oh wisdom, Oh ignorance, Oh famous one, Oh Charity, oh Goddess, Oh she Who makes us give, The daring of the mind of Lord Vishnu.

Oh Mahalakshmi, Oh goddess who is a dear friend, Oh Goddess, she who is in the mind, Oh earth, oh movable one, Oh immovable one, If these sixteen names are sung by men.

They get incomparable devotion. And at the end reach the place of Vishnu, Oh Tulsi, Oh earth, Oh Maha Lakshmi, Oh goddess of lotus, oh Darling of Vishnu.

Oh Tulsi, Oh friend of Lakshmi, Oh holy one. Oh remover of sins, Oh one who blesses with divinity, Salutations to you who was sung by sage Narada, Oh darling of the mind of Lord Vishnu.

Thus the Tulsi Stotram composed by Sri Pundarika
