SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:
Dearest Srivaishnavas,

Please tell me one ? You are asking. Don?t you know
the greatness and benefits of uttering and chanting My
names (naama sangeertthanam) Hence just live uttering
my different names, Azhweer. AzhwAr replies: Please
bless me for that as well, Swami.  

thirukkalanthu sErumaar_pa!
  thEvathEva thEvanE,
irukkalantha vEthan^eethi
  yaakin^inRa ninmalaa,
karukkalantha kaaLamEka
  mEniyaaya ninpeyar,
urukkalantho zhivilaathu
  raikkumaaRu raiseyE.     (103)

Oh Lord! The One who is ever associated with SrI and
the One who is associated with an eternal auspicious
Body! The Lord of NithyasUrIs- who are chief and above
even Devas (Demigods)! The essence and embodiment of
Vedic hymns, which eternally declare unambiguously
therein about Him, his Glories and kalyANa guNAs! The
One who is never touched by imperfections
(akilahEyaprathyaneekan)! The One who has dark bluish
dark cloud coloured bodied KaNNA! Please tell me the
way (to keep) uttering Your divine names along with
the contemplation of Your divine most beautiful Form!

tattvamEkO mahAyOgI harirnArAyaNa: para: ||

Thus the Lord is declared, glorified and elaborated
with these vedic saasthrAs. Thus as declared in Vedas,
He is the Chief of Devas of Devas which is
unambiguously asserted in Vedas and Upanishads. Rudran
is addressed as Deva Devan. Thus, Sriman Narayanan is
the Deva of Deva Devan- Lord of Rudran- which is
obtained from this Vedaarttha vichAram; and Vedanaatha
VichAram. 

As mentioned by ThoNdaradippodi AzhwAr?s pacchai
maamalai pOl mEni- The form ? divine Body which is
greenish dark most beautiful form- and then AzhwAr
mentions the utterance of His name achuthA? Similarly
Thirumazhisai AzhwAr prays for the utterance of His
divine names vis-à-vis contemplating His divine form. 

When uttering his Divine Name, one should contemplate
of His kalyANa guNAs, leelAs, beautiful form and enjoy
the meaning of those letters in His names- is what is
implied.

Thus the utterance and chanting of His 1000 divine
names is indeed ParamabhOgyam for the reciter as well
as listeners. The sruthis (Vedas) reveal that
Bhagawaan Narayana and Sri MahalakshmI, the Divine
Couple, are together the Supreme Reality, the greatest
means and the Highest Goal. The Saguna srutis declare
that Paramathma is endowed with innumerable most
auspicious qualities like knowledge, Bliss,
Omnipotence, etc.. He is inseparably qualified by the
essential qualities of Satya, jnAna, Anantha, Anandha
and amala. The jnAna, bhala, Aishwarya, veerya,
Shakti, thEjas- six guNAs are the qualities that point
out His Bhagawathvam i.e. Supremacy. There are other
that are derived from the above qualities namely,
Bala, veerya, shakti, thEjas, sowseelya, vaathsalya,
Maardhava, Arjava, saamya, kaaruNya, maadhurya, 
gaambeeryaAudhARya, audhArya, Chaathurya, Sthairya,
dhairya, sowrya, parAkrama, Sathyakaama,
Sathyasankalpa, kruthithva, kruthagnathai, and many
other such greatest most auspicious kalyAna GuNas-
anantha kalyANa guNa mahaarNavan- (Ocean of
innumerable kalyANa guNas)  

The nirguNa sruthis proclaim that He is devoid of all
kinds of defects like birth, death, hunger, thirst,
sickness and sorrow.[akilahEya praythyaneekan]  

AzhwAr refers to all of them esoterically in this
verse.
