Sri Riddhi Sthavam – Lyrics and meanings




|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||












Victory to supreme Lord who dwells on the Vrishabha Shaila/Vrishabhashailesha, who augments happiness and welfare, he is divine whose glories are matchless and beyond description or perception, he carries Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi on his chest, he elevates the souls and symbolizes Moksha/liberation from repeated births, he is the essence of Sathvik nature which is one of the superior qualities, he is seated on the marvelously decorated Manimandapa in the majestic fortress symbolizes opulence, along with Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi who is the symbol of affluence and grains,  she  is originated from the illustrious clan of Mount Himavan, he is attired in majestic silk garments decorated with precious gems that represents opulence and prosperity, he is reclining on the massive bed of serpent in his marvelous chamber, he is served in pitchers of precious yellow metals, he is sincerely served with Cchathra and Chamara by ascetics,  he is incomparable and serene, he is worshiped with deep reverence and conducts grand celebrations on each Paksha and Masa, he is decked in various ornaments of exquisite patterns, he is smeared in highly fragrant saffron of Kashmeera, he is decked in attractive fresh alluring flower garlands that spreads intense fragrances in the whole atmosphere, he is surrounded by ascetics who offers rich fragrant dhoopa and Karpoora at all times, he is offered with  grand music, dances and instrumental music performed by celestial Gandharvas and Apsaras on daily basis, whole of the shrine is reverberated with the sounds of divine music, he is offered with four kinds of  Kandhamoolaphala/tuber vegetables and fruits at different time of intervals, he is served with soup, puddings, milk soaked in sugar as oblations, Oh! Prabho, who symbolizes wealth and prosperity, kindly accepts the humble offerings as Thamboola made of pure betel leaves and nut, which was offered by your sincere servants with utmost happiness and respect, attendants who are sincerely devoted and meditates upon you, kindly bless with eternal happiness, prosperity and wealth, Oh! Kshonipalaka/who is the protector of Universe and its living beings, kindly blesses with highest of the pieties such as selfless service to your lotus feet, kindly shower your compassionate grace at all times that are highly propitious, Oh! Bhavan, kindly protects us and shower eternal happiness, Oh! Mamahi, Oh! Rama, Oh ! Sriman, kindly shower all kinds of auspiciousness on us.   Lord Vishnu who is charismatic and symbolizes wealth will get highly pleased to people who sincerely recites or listens to the above glorious verses and the worshiper would remain blessed with the grace of supreme Lord.
