ശ്രീ മഹാലക്ഷ്മീ അഷ്ടോത്തരശതനാമാവലീ

A hundred and eight names of Mahalakshmi for offering, and it differs from the other Lakshmi archanas in this corpus by prefixing the same three seeds to every single name rather than a bare om, so each salutation is spoken with the mantra rebuilt in front of it. The list itself works by compounding Lakshmi with whatever is being asked for, so that she is not one goddess with many qualities but many Lakshmis: the Lakshmi of mantra, of maya, of intelligence, of release, of wealth, of friends, and the giver of the earth. That method makes the archana usable for a specific want, since the worshipper can hear which Lakshmi is being addressed at each flower, and it is why the list runs so heavily on the name itself rather than on epithets.
