Lakshmi Ashtothara Satham
Lakshmi Ashtothara Satha Namam
Translation by P. R. Ramachander
[It is usual in Hindu religion to worship gods and Goddesses by chanting their
108 names. Here are the 108 names used to worship Goddess Lakshmi and their
meaning. Please note that there is more than one set of such names. Lakshmi is
the Goddess of wealth and was born out of the ocean of milk, when it was
churned. Lord Vishnu took her as his consort. He also gave her a place in his
chest where sage Shukra kicked him.]
