Offering one more oblation (punar ācamana for the sake of proffering (as a mark of acceptance).She has to be invoked along with Her Consort Nārāyaṇa, on whose left lap, She is seated). Invoking Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa (it is said that Lakṣmī alone should not be invoked.
His left arm around embracing Her and Her right hand on the shoulders of Nārāyaṇa.įifteen verses (these verses are also known as ṛc, which means a sacred verse recited in praise of a deity) are to be used as follows. One should visualize Lakṣmī sitting on the left thigh of Nārāyaṇa (this form is called Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa, and is considered as the most auspicious form). Sages like Śaunaka (sometimes referred as various authors) had laid down the methods of worshiping Lakṣmī with Śrī Sūkta. The first verse is for Prathama tithi and 15 th verse is for full moon (pūrṇimā) or new moon (amāvāsya), the 15 th tithi. Original Śrī Sūkta contains only 15 verses, each of the verses referring to one lunar tithi. Now let me explain the rules for reciting Śrī Sūkta.” The first one contains praise for Brahman (Nirguṇabrahman) second one also is the praise for Brahman, referring to me (Sagunabrahman).If these two Sūkta-s are properly recited, it takes him to the point of Liberation. One is Puruṣasūkta and another is Śrī Sūkta. Both Nārāyaṇa and I thought about welfare of the world, created by us (for the purpose of peaceful sustenance), we worked on Śabdabrahman and found out two Sūkta-s. I manifest as both good and bad (Brahman is both good and bad, as It is omnipresent). I am His Supreme Śakti, free from all sorts of afflictions. On his request, Śrī explains the importance of Śrī Sūktam. Indra asks Śrī the ways and means of rendering Śrī Sūktam. This is revealed by Goddess Lakṣmī Herself to Indra (Lakṣmī Tantra). For example, Puruṣasūktam is a hymn in the praise of Puruṣa, which can be interpreted as Brahman (divyaḥ puruṣaḥ amūrtaḥ) and also as Viṣṇu ( Viṣṇu Sahasranāma 14 adores Viṣṇu as Puruṣa).
Sūkta, also known as Vedic hymn, is different from Vedic couplets. Sūkta means properly rendered, wise saying or song of praise. There are 29 verses of Śrī Sūktam in the original text of Khilasūkta. Khilasūkta means additional hymn appended to the regular collection. Śrī Sūktam is found in Pariśiṣṭa (परिशिष्ट) of Rig Veda, under the head Khilasūkta (खिलसूक्त).
