Lakshmi Ashtottara Shatanama Stotra the hymn of hundred and eight names of Lakshmi is an important hymn of lakshmi which was taught to goddess Parvati by Lord Shiva. This hymn is called daridrya mochana - that which liberates those who recite from all kinds of poverty. the hymn has been explained mainly with the help of Lakshmi tantra and sri sukta bhashya, Health, wealth, prosperity wisdom and all other kinds of wealth are granted by the goddess for those who worship her with devotion through this hymn. The glories and qualities of goddess Lakshmi are well described through all the hundred and eight names and those are explained in detail in this book with the help of Lakshmi Tantra a pancharatra text, puranas and various sacred scriptures. The specialty of Lakshmi tantra is that it is a conversation between goddess Lakshmi and Lord Indra the king of the gods. Goddess Lakshmi herself teaches Indra her glories and method of worship. Most of the Shlokas quoted in this book to explain the names of goddess Lakshmi is quoted from Lakshmi tantra, the goddess herself explains the meaning of her names in first person narrative. (and I have translated those verse in the same style example: Hence I am praised as... etc.) Some names have been explained by quoting other sources where the first-person narrative is not used. The reason for using that style of narrative is to put an emphasis that its goddess herself explaining her epithets and glories.
