 Sri:

 SrimatE Gopaladesika MahadesikAya Namaha,

 Dear Sadagopan Swamin,

 Thanks a lot for your lovely series of postings on Lakshmi Sahasram. The 
mahima of Thayar's divine names is matchless! Sri Venkatadwari Kavi embeds 
the essence of the rig Sooktham salutation "thAm padhminImIm sharaNamaham 
prapadhyE alakshmIrmEnashyathAm thvAm vruNE". This salutation glorifies 
meaning of the term Sri signified by ShruNAthi (i.e., one who destroys the 
impediments in the path of a Prapanna seeking the grace of Lord Narayana). 
The foremost impediment in this context is the mountainous pile of sins 
accumulated from beginningless time. This is the "alakshmI" precluding the 
attainment of the Dhivya Sampath (eternal Kaimkaryam rendered to the Divine 
Couple for their pleasure and at their behest). However, the compassionate 
glances of Thayar effortlessly destroy this sin pile enabling the Prapanna 
to become privy to the grace of Lord Narayana. Swami Desikan glorifies this 
mahOpakaram of Thayar in the Daya Shatakam salutations "karuNE 
nishkaruNanirUpaNEthvam athayEvahi thAvakAshrithAm dhurithAnam 
BhavathithvadhEva Bhiti;" and "sathyApitham thavabhalAdha kuthO Bhaya thvam"
 Thanks again for reminding adiyen of these nuggets about thayar.

 Namo Narayana,

 SriMuralidhara Dasan
