Dear Sri Devi BHakthAs :

 

One of our dear Members of Oppiliappan Group asked me to write about

SrI Sthuthi of Swamy Desikan . adiyEn is happy to do so .

 

There are many sthOthrams in praise of our Supreme Mother .

KurEsar and Sri Sthuthi of Swamy Desikan besides Sri Lakshmi Sahasram

by Sri VenkatAdhri Kavi , Lakshmi AshtOttharam and Sahasra Naamam .

 

Let us start with one of the simplest ones to recite and enjoy

(Viz) , Sri Lakshmi DhvAdasa Naama SthOthram . It has twelve names of

MahA Lakshmi for recital during the three sandhyA kaalams and

reflection on the Meanings for being blessed with long life , perfect health

and wealth for use in Bhagavath-BhAgavatha Kaimkaryam .

 

The twelve Names are :(1) SrI Devi (2) KamalOdhbhavaA

(3) KamalA (4) Loka Sundaree (5) VishNu Pathnee (6) VaishNavee

(7) VarArOhA (8) Hari VallabhA (9) SaarngiNee (10) Deva DevikA

(11) MahA Lakshmee (12) SrI Hari PriyA .
