śrī śanaiścara sahasranāma stotram

The thousand names of Śanaiścara in verse, over two hundred of them, with Kāśyapa named as the seer and śaṃ, naṃ and maṃ as the seed, the power and the pin. The record keeps the hand-placing that precedes it, and that placing is itself a short name-list worth reading: Śanaiścara on the thumbs, the slow-moving on the forefingers, Adhokṣaja on the middle fingers, Sauri on the ring fingers, the dry-bellied on the little fingers. The thousand that follow are the same list the Śanaiścara Sahasranāmāvalī gives as a litany — the two match closely once the case endings are set aside — so the pair are one text in two forms, one for reading through and one for telling on a mālā. Its closing verse says it will give the desired object in a single utterance, and then tells the wise to recite it with observance regardless.
