SrI:

Dear BhakthAs of MahA Lakshmi:

In the 38th SlOkam , Sri Venkatadhvari Kavi states that 
after drinking the nectar of MahA Lakshmi's naamAs ,
he is not disposed to performing Yaagams and Yaj~nams
anymore :

DayAdhadhE yaa Tava nAmadhEyA
bhidhA sudhEyam yadhi thAmm dhayEyam 
na VaajabhEyam KamalE yajEyam
na vaa japEyam mahathOapi mantrAn

(Meaning): Oh KamalA ! Oh Ocean of Mercy ! If adiyEn has 
the bhAgyam of drinking Your nectarine nAmAs , adiyEn 
need not engage either in the performance of grand Yaagams like
VaajapEyam or the recitation of big mantrams to gain the same
Phalan anymore . They are superfluous . 

( Key words): KamalE ! Tava nAmadhEya abhidhA yadhi 
dhayEyam , (atha: param ), VaajapEyam na yajEyam , mahatha:
mantram na japEyam .

Comments:
***************
1) DhayAdadhE : She is the Ocean of Mercy . It is that DhayA
of Hers which is behind the Phalans gained from the performance of 
MahA Yaj~nams like VaajapEyam and the recitation of MahA 
Mantrams. Her KaruNai grants the same phalans from 
the sankeertanam of Her nAmAs.

2) SudhA: Her nAmAs are present as the nectar on one's tongue . 
It is therefore an easy upAyam for recieving Her mahA anugrahams.

3) People perform difficult to execute Yaj~nams like VaajapEyam
to recieve the phalan equivalent to drinking nectar . When one can
attain the same phalan thru the easy route of recitation of Mother 
Lakshmi's nAmAs , there is no need for following hard routes like
conducting Yaagams and theevra mantra japam over extended times.

4) Sri VenkatAdhvari Kavi is known for performing Yaj~nams like
VaajapEyam , Satthram et al. His Lakshmi Bhakthi could be a direct
consequence of such performances . As an accomplished 
anushtAthA of such big Saama Yaagams , the Kavi instructs us 
that one can get the same phalan and that too easily by 
performing nAma sankerthanam of MahA Lakshmi's nAmAs.

5) He evokes  the word VaajapEyam at two places here .
In the fourth Paadham , he brings it out like this: 
" na vaa japEyam in the fourht paadham  and 
" na VaajapEyam "in the third paadham . 

6)  The sound "yamm " is heard six times in this slOkam
to reveal PrAsa Pushti .      

Sri Lakshmi HaygrIva ParabrahmaNE Nama:
