*Vivarnadivishnusahasranamavali savyakhya*-In the present work late Sri
Bellamkonda Ramarayakavi (1875-1914) has embarked upon a new venture
keeping in mind the Vyasa’s lines : yani namani gaunani vikhyatani
mahatmanah, Rishibhih parigitani tani vakshyami bhutaye. These lines
underline the validity of synonyms. In other words, any name can be applied
to God Vishnu – literally the one who pervades the whole universe. But the
author has to compose his own commentary to justify the derivations of such
appellations. It is here that our author has excelled in his venture. He
had justified many names by quoting authoritative verses on lexicography.
The rate feature of the present work is that eachand every synonyms of
Vishnu is beginning with the syttable ‘vi’ Naturally the work is entitled
‘Vivarnadivishnusahasranamastotram’. His commentary is self-explanatory
giving no scope to criticism.
