ശ്രീ കമലാ സഹസ്രനാമാവലീ

The thousand names of Kamala set out one to a line for offering, and its opening is the classic Vaishnava sequence rather than a tantric one: to Shri, to the lotus, to nature itself, to sattva, to the peaceful, to the power of consciousness, to the unchanging, to the alone, to the partless. The litany is marked off in hundreds as it goes, which is how a namavali of this length is kept countable through a long worship. The closing run is a reminder that a thousand names cannot all be solemn — to joy, to the modest one, to the lute, to Shachi, to resolve, to the radiant, to the mingled one, to the wine of the kadamba — and that the form takes in the whole range of what the goddess is held to touch.
