Even in the Vishnu-Sahasranamam, one finds reference only to 'dEvaki-nandana' ("dEvaki nandana shrasta ksheeteesha: pApanAshanah:..."). If my memory serves me right, I don't think there is even a single mention of Yasoda in the SahasranAmam. It seems to me that while the 'sruti' and 'smriti' are partial towards Devaki the "petrat-thAi", the AzhwArs on the other hand favoured Yasoda, the "vallartha-thAi"! I wonder what other members think. Rgds, dAsan, Sudarshan --- End forwarded message --- ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Yahoo!
