శ్రీ లలిత సహస్రనామం


Lalitha Sahasranama Stotram is the sacred devotional slokha for the devotees of Goddess Lalitha Devi, the Divine Mother Goddess Parvathi Devi in the form of her and the male Gods' feminine power, Shakti.

Lalitha Sahasranama Stotram appears in Brahmanda Purana in the chapter of discussion between Agasthya Maharshi and Hayagriva, the incarnation of Lord Vishnu with the horse head. At his request of Agasthya Maharshi, Hayagreeva taught him Lalita Sahasranama Stotram or the most holy 1000 names of Goddess Lalitha, the Goddess of bliss. Lalitha Sahasranama Stotram is organized according to Pancha Kruthyam (5 works). The Pancha Kruthyam are Srishti (Creation), Stithi (Protection), Laya (Destruction), Thirodhanam (Hiding), and Anugraham (Blessing).

Lalita Sahasranamam is also known as the Rahasya Nama Sahasra (the thousand secret names). Lalitha Sahasra Namam is a very powerful slokha chanting it and meditating it on the meaning of the 1000 names of Goddess Lalitha will ward off all evils and would lead to the fulfillment of all the wishes of the devotees. Chanting Lalitha Sahasranamam on Fridays is considered auspicious.
