Guest guest Posted July 2, 2004 Report Share Posted July 2, 2004 ubhayAxara nAmAni hyubhAbhyAM kathitaani vai | tadanyairgrathitaM stotramestasya sadR^isham kimu || 3 || ## The names starting with ubhayaxara-s are composed by them both. Hence, the works composed by others will ever be equal to this work? ubhaya means both. Hence, ubhayaxara-s are those which represent the union of shiva shakti or in other words, where shiva shakti is represented or equally present together. This is known as shiva shakti sAmarasyam. ## nAnena sadR^ishaM stotraM shrIdevI prItIdAyakam.h | lokatraye.api kalyANaM saMbhavennAtra saMshayaH || ## There is no work in all the three worlds that is equivalent to this most auspicious work, which gives joy to shrii devii. And there is no doubt about it. sadR^isha mean equivalent or similar. The idea here is there is no work that can compare to trishatI. The reasons are two fold, a) names start with shiva, shakti, and combined axaras which form her great mantra "panchadashAxarI" and b) the names are composed directly by shiva dampati themselves. jaganmAta is addressed here as shrii devii, even though this is a comman epithet to mahAlaxmi, it is not specific to laxmii and here it denotes to shrImAtA. This now leads to the natural question: how are these (15) axara-s assigned? ## You should be able to cut & paste this in Itranslator 2003 and get the text in correct fonts. Ravi > > Ravisankar S.
