     yatas sarvāṇi bhūtāni bhavantyādi yuɡā ’’ɡame
     yasmiṃśca praḷayay̐ yānti puna reva yuɡa kṣaye
     
     tasya loka pradhānasya jaɡannāthasya bhūpate
     viṣṇor nāma sahasram me śṛnu pāpa bhayā ’pahaṃ

     Hear from me the thousand names of Vishnu, the thousand which wash away the distress of sins, from whom all beings come starting with the beginning of the age, and to whom at the dissolution they indeed go back at the destruction of the age, of the chief of this world, the foremost of the world, the lord of the universe and master of the earth.
