ശ്രീ ഐശ്വര്യലക്ഷ്മീ അഷ്ടോത്തരശതനാമാവലീ

The hundred and eight names of Aishwaryalakshmi, the form of Lakshmi in whom prosperity is lordship rather than money, offered one to a line. What distinguishes this namavali from its seven companions is the seed that heads every name — Shrim repeated three times before the Om — and that triple repetition is the mark of the Aishwarya form throughout the set. The names run alphabetically: to Aishwaryalakshmi, to the sinless, to the queen of bees, to the day-maker; then the run on i — to the giver of what is desired, to Indrani, to the mistress of Ishana, to the beguiler of Indra, which places her among the gods rather than among households. The last run keeps the same height: bright as the autumn moon, instruction itself, the hundred-slayer.
