About Sri Lakshmi Narayana Ashtakam
Sri Lakshmi Narayana Ashtakam is a deeply moving devotional hymn of eight verses dedicated to Lord Narayana (Vishnu) together with Goddess Lakshmi. The unique beauty of this stotram lies in its powerful refrain — "Asheshaduhkhashaantyartham Lakshmee Naarayanam Bhaje" — meaning "For the complete removal of all sorrows, I worship Lakshmi Narayana." This refrain appears in every verse, making the entire hymn a focused, heartfelt prayer for relief from all worldly suffering.
The hymn glorifies Lord Narayana as the imperishable support of all worlds (Asheshajagadaadhaaram), the boundless ocean of compassion (Apaarakarunaambhodhim), the friend of all beings (Suhridam Sarvabhootaanaam), the bearer of conch and discus (Shankhachakradharam), and the bestower of fearlessness (Abhayapradam). By invoking both Lakshmi (the goddess of wealth, fortune, and grace) and Narayana (the supreme protector), this Lakshmi Narayana Stotram addresses both material well-being and spiritual liberation.
