|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||




|| Om Sri Mahalakshmyai Nama: ||












Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi concludes  “whoever recites these 1008 sacred names with utmost faith and devotion would remain unblemished and get their desires fulfilled.  I shall shower blessings on childless couple, children with lack of good fortune, people with  lack of intelligence, and  disabilities, lack of speech, distressed etc…they all will avail my blessings with the recitation of the above sacred verses.” Thus Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi/Vaishnavi affirmed the above and disappeared from the sight of Sage Sanathkumara. 



Sage Sanathkumara spoke “The deities receive their share of offerings made to fire sacrifices in the form of oblations, and whoever performs would receive the blessings, victory, affluence and their wishes will get fulfilled.  Oh! Sages, I have described the 1008 sacred names of Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi that are highly propitious, kindly recite those verses and attain all that you have desired.”



Sage Gargya spoke “ Sage Sanathkumara who is most compassionate and illustrious among Yogis, blessed the 12 Sages assembled  before him and left the place after describing those  1008 sacred names of Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi.  The above sacred verses are highly confidential, and it should recite with utmost devotion and dedication, and it should be recited on the days of Friday, or eighth or fourteenth or ninth day, or Pournami days, or Amavasya days, or on any auspicious days, whoever recites these sacred verses praising Goddess Mahalakshmi on regular basis would get their wishes fulfilled.”
