Sanskrit Text

पितामह महाप्राज्ञ पुण्डरीकाक्षमच्युतम् कर्तारमकृतं विष्णुं भूतानां प्रभवाप्ययम्

English Translation

Yudhishthira said O grandfather, O you of great wisdom, I wish to hear fully, O chief of the Bharatas, of that lotus-eyed and indestructible one, who is the Crcator of all but who has been created by none, who is called Vishnu, who is the origin of all creatures and to whom all creatures return, who is known by the names of Narayana and Hrishikesha and Govinda and Keshava, and who is incapable of being defeated by any one.
