LS: What name will you choose?

Shivayai satatam namaha,

I would chose : TRIVARGADAATRI

one who blesses with triad of human values - 'aspiration to do meritorious

deeds, the capacity

for it , and the means for it'.

(meaning from 'Shree Lalitaa sahasranaama - swami tapasyananda-Sri Ramakrishna

Math)

Ramanan-ji, and Sharada Ramanan-ji, You beat me to it. As I was

reading the earlier mail by Ravi Mayavaram, I decided, Well I'll

choose "avyAja-karuNA-mUrtaye namaH" and lo and behold! as I opened

the next mail, it was your mail choosing the same name! What an

avyAja-karuNA of Shri mAtA!

PraNAms to all devotees of ambA,

At first, God said :

Curl E = -dB/dt

Div D = rho

Div B = 0

Curl H = j + dD/dt

and there was the light.

I like "Aum Kaala Chakra Bhramaaya Namah"

Can anyone tell me the meaning of this name? I think it might mean that the

wheel of time is in the hands of Devi Maa. Please clarify.

Jai Mata Di,

Raj

Namah shivaya

Thank you Ravi for this delightful question. I simply love every name in the

LS.. but like Prof.Vk and Sri Ramanan and Sradaha , I must say that for me too

the name

"Avyaja Karuna Murti" stands supreme.

For it is Her avyAja karunA that is protecting me and nourishing me throughout

my life.

The other name that I love is the first name of Devi that occurs in the

sahasranama- after Sri Mathre namaha, follows the description of Her form ..

but then the first 'direct name" by which She is addressed is "kAmAkshi". that

is another supreme name ..

Since the names that address Amma's mercy mean so much to me, the names like

karunarasasagara, nityaklinna, daya murti, prema rupa, saandra karunaa are some

of my favorites.

But supreme is avyAja KarunA ... followed closely by karunArasasAgara.. and

Abrahmakitajanani ( Mother of all from Brhama down to a worm)

there is another gem in the dhyana shloka itself- "KarunatarangithAkshim" -

eyes that radiate waves of Mercy .

when I first met my Guru Ammachi, it was this name that struck me as i was

transfixed literally by seeing Amma's eyes brim over with tears of Love. Never

had i seen such eyes before, brimming with so much Love and Mercy.. literally

wet with compassion.

Anyway , forgive my digression - i got carried away- but i too will say

"avyAja karuna murti" is the name that is supreme in significance to me...

Om Amriteshwaryai namah

namaste Rajitaji:

Your explanation was fascinating. But the texts I have do not list

this as a name by itself. But it is part of the name

mukha-chandra-kaLaN^kAbha-mR^iganAbhi-viSeShakA

mR^iganAbhi is taken to mean musk (based on deer's navel).

Prof. VK also brings this name in the context of his Saundaryalahari

discussion to show that is area in face where tilaka is applied is

between the brows (based on the previous name, which talks about the

forehead and next name, which talks about the eye brows).

With respects,

Ravi

It is indeed difficult to choose but still I would choose "Om

ichha-sakti-jnana-sakti-kriya-sakti- svarupinyai namah" which portrays Her as

Power of will, knowledge and action, the powers which is part and parcel of

every human life.

Sri MAtre Namah

I chhose the name ShaasvathAishvarya form LS, Even to my daughter I have named

the same.

The meaning is eternal prosperity which is wisdom or Gnanam.

Sincerely

shivA, shivapriya, shivaGYAna pradAyini

shivA: shaM is said to mean shAshavat sukhaM or shAshvata Ananda i.e

eternal bliss. va is said to represent amr^itatva i.e immortality.

shiva is one who is of the form of

eternal bliss/perpetual happiness and immortality. So is shivA.

These are the essence of LS.

Above is according to the shiva purANa.
