[P.J.]

I would like to learn Vishnu sahasranamam can any one please teach me?

In many Hindu Temple, Sri Vishnu Sahasranama Parayanam ( Practice ) is undertaken, please enquire about that

In the mean time, you may use this You Tube Video to recite the Slokam

This is for beginners

There are no specific rules for reciting Sri Vishnu Sahasranama Stotram. The rules are same as those of any Hindu worship: clean mind (antha: soucham), clean body, clean place and clean clothes (baahya soucham). Depending on the circumstances (desha- kaala - deha dharma), one could forego the external cleanliness. Very simple !!

There are some rules for Puja, especially for Archana which has a procedure laid-down. There is a reason why cleanliness is advised. Being clean around is believed to help in focusing on the task at hand (Puja in this case), not as a superficial requirement to look good.

We can discuss later, on the effect of reciting any Mantra/ Sloka when you start reciting this Great Sri Vishnu Saharanamam every day!

May Sri Vishnu Bless you and your family.

Sankara TV had a very good learning series; I think it is the best learning series available online. I would add that learning from CD with the audio slowed down using software is not recomended unless you have learnt it traditionally as a child and just want to brush up. You can watch the series here (fwd to 11:40). (I currently can't post links so search for "[h=1]Learn Vishnu Sahasranamam - Gurukulam - Sankara TV " in youtube[/h]
Please note that the actual teaching as per Gurukula method (which includes extra care on difficult portions) starts from 11:40 in the first video. The Poorva Bhaga portion has already been taught in this series.

Happy learning
