śrī harihara aṣṭottara śatanāmāvalī

A hundred and eight names spoken by Yama in the Kashi Khanda of the Skanda Purana, and the list alternates between the two gods whose names it joins. It opens Govinda, Madhava, Mukunda, Hari, Murari — and then, with no break and no word of explanation, Shambhu, Shiva, Isha, the moon-crested, the trident-handed. The next run returns to Damodara, Achyuta, Janardana, Vasudeva, and turns again to the bearer of Ganga, the foe of Andhaka, Hara, the blue-throated. The switching is the argument: the oneness of Hari and Hara is asserted by the arrangement rather than stated in any verse. It closes on Trilochana, Pinakadhara and Smarari, then Krishna and Aniruddha, and last on the matted hair wet with the river of three paths.
