Chapter

7

With his senses under

control, pure of heart and sublime, MÄrkaÃ«Ã²eya

took his seat in the svastika mudra. With concentrated mind, MÄrkaÃ«Ã²eya

Muni, controlling his vital breath, uttered:

â€œOmâ€ and drew imaginary lines of the Sun, Moon and Agni.

In the midst of those circles, he conceived a pedestal for the Eternal Lord,

Hari. KÃ¥Ã±Ã«a

in Yellow Robe, the weilder of the saÃ¯kha (conch), gada (mace) and cakra

(Discus), he meditated upon Hari of the nature of Brahman and chanted the

mantra

â€œOm namo Bhagvate VÄsudevÄyaâ€

-

Om obeisance to Lord VÄsudeva -

In

the ears of the great Muni, ViÃ±Ã«u himself

whispered this stotra. MÄrkaÃ«Ã²eya, with

rapt attention recited this mantra in propitiation of MÄdhava, to overcome

death.
