If we say the number 1, it is automatically denotes that there is only 1 god. If we say 12, it denotes the 12 great thiru Naamams of Sriman Narayanan. If we say 8, its speciality is unique. The "Ashtakashara Manthram" - Om Namo Narayanaya Nama: This was the main mantram which converted Thirumangai mannan from a king / thief to one among the great 12 Alwars as Thirumangai alwar. And like this, another speciality is about the 8 form of Sri Lakshmi collectively termed as "Sri Ashta Lakshmi".

Sri Lakshmi is the Adhi Devatha for wealth and not only for this alone but give a good birth of a child, to give courage, to give us good thought, etc.
