Tulshi Stotram - PRO

的公告..

This prayer is addressed to Tulsi who is also known as Vrinda (ocimum sanctum in Latin, and Sacred Basil in English). This plant is considered to be an incarnation of the consort of Lord Vishnu. Devotees believe that the leaves of Tulsi should be offered to Lord Vishnu.

One origin story of Tulsi is that Sri Lakshmi was born to Dharmadhwaja's wife Madhavi. Her parents named her Tulsi. Being beautiful and virtuous, she was married to Vishnu. Vishnu desired her to cast off her body and stay with him in spirit. Her body then became the river Gandaki. Vishnu's body become the Saaligrama stone and resided in the river. Sri Lakshmi's hair grew into a plant, become the famous Tulsi, an object of worship.
