Apad Uddharana Stotram Dear all, I am posting the Apad Uddharana Stotram, with translation below. It has been of great help to me during times of distress. OM Aapadaam apaharthaaram dhataaram sarva sampadaam lokabhiraamam Sri Raamam bhuyo bhuyo namaamyaham <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" /><st1lace>OM</st1lace> I bow down again and again to that Sri Raama, the beloved of the whole world, who gets rid of all difficulties and accidents, and provides for all kinds of (spiritual and material) riches. Aarthaanaam aarthihanthaaram bheethaanam bheethi naashanam Dwishadaam kaladandam tam Raamachandram namaamyaham He who annihilates the pain of the distressed, He who destroys fear in the minds of the fearful, He who is like the Weapon of Death to his enemies, that Raamachandra do I worship. Agrathah prishtatha chaiva paarshwathascha mahabaloh aakarna poorna dhanvaanoh rakshaithaam raamalakshmanau Those two warriors of supreme strength, Raama and Lakshmana stand with me, before and behind, always close by, armed to the ears with weapons like bow etc, they always protect me. Sannaddhah kavachih khadgi chaapabaanadharor yuvah gacchan mamaagratho nithyam raamah paathu salakshmanah Ever ready for providing protection, wearing armour, wielding the sword, bow and arrows, those two vibrant youth always walk with me. O Raama and Lakshmana, protect me! Namah kodandahasthaaya sandhih krithasaraaya cha dandithaakhila daityaaya raama aapannivarane I bow down to the bow-wielding Raama, armed with incisive arrows, the subduer of all asuras, he who wards off all my difficulties Raamaya raamabhadraaya raamachandraya vedhase raghunaathaya naathaya seethaayah pathaye namah I bow down to him whom I know as Raama, Raamabhadra, Raamachandra, Raghunaatha, Naatha (my overlord) and husband of Seetha. Achyuthaananda govinda naamochaarana bheshajaath nashyanthi sakalaa rogaah sathyam sathyam vadaamyaham Chanting the divine healing names achyutha, Anantha and Govinda, all diseases will be destroyed, this I proclaim as the Truth, the Truth indeed.
