If you chant this set of 27 names four times, that will equal one ashtotara (108 names). Repeating this ashtotara ten times will be a sahasranama (1000 names) and that is highly recommended. 10 sahasranamas per day is the royal road to the Mother's grace!

Doing archana (offering flowers at the Mother's lotus feet with the recitation of every name) with gold/yellow colored fragrant flowers is highly recommended. This is the way to get sarva mangala sowbhagya - all auspiciousness and prosperity.

Om.

On this blessed Varalakshmi Vratham day, it is a great blessing to get the darshan of Sri Sundara Mahalakshmi at Arasar Kovil. Mother Sundara Mahalakshmi sports six toes in Her right leg as she blesses us seated in the padmasana posture. Why six? Six is Sukra's number and Mother Lakshmi is Sukra's Divine Controller. The six toes of Mother Sundara MahaLakshmi constitute a concrete reminder to us that it is She who controls Shukra's power to bestow prosperity. This should be kept in mind on this blessed Varalakshmi Vrata day.

This temple is a particular favorite of Shukra since Mother Lakshmi here has conveyed the significance of his number six in such a concrete fashion. Shukra worships at this shrine every Friday without fail. What form he might assume is beyond human comprehension, but he is one of the visitors to this shrine every Friday. This indeed is a boon to anyone who might desire the blessings of Shukra and Mother Lakshmi.

Prosperity is not just a million dollar bank account. A truly prosperous human is one who is blessed with 64 aiswaryas - 64 forms of wealth, well being and prosperity - each governed by a form of Mother Lakshmi, viz., Dhana lakshmi, Dhanya lakshmi, Vijaya lakshmi, Veera lakshmi, Dhairya lakshmi, Gaja lakshmi, Santhana lakshmi, Vidya Lakshmi, Mangala Lakshmi, Madhava Lakshmi, Bhagya Lakshmi, Senji (Senjula) Lakshmi, Soundarya Lakshmi, Vara Lakshmi, Yoga Lakshmi, Jyoti Lakshmi, Sethu Lakshmi, Sita Lakshmi, Maha Lakshmi and so on. (Recite these names as mantra pooja.) But it is Mother Sundara Mahalakshmi at this shrine who is the root form of all these 64 Lakshmi Devis. So anyone who desires all 64 aishwaryas must indeed worship Mother Sundara Mahalakshmi at this shrine, say the Siddhas.

This is a perfect shrine for propitiating the navagrahas. Each of the nine Navagraha lords and their consorts worshipped Mother Sundara Mahalakshmi at this shrine in nine different Lakshmi forms. Adi Lakshmi (Aditya or Soorya), Soma Lakshmi (when Mother Lakshmi appeared with Chandra), Mangala Lakshmi, Bhowmya Lakshmi (the root form of SriVidya Lakshmi), Gurupara Lakshmi, Shukra Lakshmi, Bhagya Lakshmi or Sumangali Vara Lakshmi (She who blesses a woman's husband with health and longevity).

Make it a point to worship Mother Sundara Mahalakshmi at this temple on Varalakshmi Vrata days and Fridays, particularly those Fridays that occur in Aadi maasam (July 15 - August 15) and Thai maasam (January 15 - February 15) and especially during Sukra hora (use our calculator). Mother Lakshmi will bless one and all with solutions to money problems like poverty, debts, losses in business, court cases and other litigation problems. Perform tharpan ceremonies for your ancestors on the banks of the nearby Paalar river. Most importantly, with your body, mind and wealth, work for the renovation and upkeep of this temple.

Om.
