Dhaththathreya
speaks “ Oh! Rama, the above are the glorious hundred and eight names of
Goddess Lalitha known as Saubhagya Ashtoththarashathanama Sthothram, which is
marvelous and has been highly confidential,
it is the essence of all the sacred hymns, it is not accessible for even
the three worlds, it was recited by Sadhashiva on regular basis, which assisted
Kandharpa to conquer the three worlds effortlessly, it should be recited during
the hours of dawn, noon and dusk, by the Srividhyopaska with the systematic and
prescribed method of worship of supreme Goddess Sri Lalitha according to the
scriptures, recitation of thousands of times of these glorious verses would
provide ten folds of religious fervor and it would destroy the enemies, worship
