ஶ்ரீ ஸந்தாநலக்ஷ்மீ அஷ்டோத்தரஶதநாமாவலீ
(Sri Santanalakshmi Ashtottara Shatanamavali in Tamil)
Also known as santana lakshmi 108 names · santanalakshmi namavali · santana lakshmi ashtottara
The hundred and eight names of Santanalakshmi — Lakshmi as offspring, the form worshipped by those wanting children — offered one to a line, each headed by the three seeds Hrim, Shrim and Klim, which is this form's mark within the set of eight. The names begin more fiercely than the title would suggest: to Santanalakshmi, to the slayer of demons, to the worshipped, to her from whom nectar is born. Then the alphabetical run — to her whose face is like the moon, to the sacrifice, to her praised by Indra and the rest, to the highest. The last names are domestic in a way the rest of these litanies rarely are, and they are what the form is really for: to the fair-faced, to the ground of charm, to her who loves laughter.
