ஶ்ரீ தக்ஷிணாமூர்தி மந்த்ரார்ணாஷ்டோத்தரஶதநாம ஸ்தோத்ரம்

The Devi asks Mahadeva for the best of hymns, the one made from the letters of the mantra, and he answers that it is supremely secret and gives it for the good of all the worlds. What follows is a hundred and eight names ordered not by sense but by sound: they are drawn in sequence from the syllables of Dakshinamurti's own mantra, so that the litany doubles as a way of holding the mantra in memory. The names themselves range across the whole of what the image means — the lion on the mountain of Om, the elephant in the thicket of Om, the husband of the mountain king's daughter, the moon to the ocean of his devotees' knowledge, the sun to the darkness of delusion — and end in the names of unaided happiness and of the self at rest in itself.
