ଶ୍ରୀ ସୀତା ସହସ୍ରନାମ ସ୍ତୋତ୍ରମ୍

A thousand names from the Adbhuta Ramayana, and its frame is the reason to read it. Rama, having heard what Brahma said, opens his eyes slowly, trembling, his great arms shaking; overcome by the brightness he puts his head to the ground, and it is Rama who is afraid and Rama who folds his hands to ask, who are you, great goddess, I do not know you, tell me truly. The answer is the hymn's premise. Know me as the supreme power that rests on Maheshvara, without a second, unspending, one, whom those who want release are looking for; I am the self of all that is, within everything. Only then do the names begin. Its closing verses list what it is recited against — plague, the king, thieves and fire, disease, enemies rising, drought — and say that where it is properly recited the goddess stands there with Rama.
