ଶ୍ରୀ ଲଲିତା ଲକାରାଦି ଶତନାମ ସ୍ତୋତ୍ରମ୍

The verse form of the hundred and eight la-names that also stand in this corpus as a namavali, and it keeps the frame the salutation form drops. Bhairavi asks Bhairava, seated on the peak of Kailasa, for the best of all mantras; he answers that whoever reads or wears this becomes master of every accomplishment, that the sixfold rite succeeds by its grace, and that it is to be kept from the uninitiated and guarded as closely as one's own person. Then comes the viniyoga in verse — Rajarajeshvara the seer, anushtubh the metre, Lalita the deity, the sixfold rite and the four aims the purpose — and then the names. Forty-two verses in all, closing on the instruction to meditate on the teacher as Shiva and to remember Shiva as the teacher, since there is nothing there to argue about.
