Mahalakshmi mantra

Hindu Wannabe
Namaste,

yet another translation request. Could you please provide the translation for


Om maha laxmi namo namah

Om vishnu prayayi namo namah

Om dhan pradaya namo namah

Om vishawa jannanya namo namah


Thank you.
 

Aupmanyav

My translation (and some pronunciation corrections, of which I am not sure):

Om mahā laxmi namo namah: Multiple salutations to Great Mother Lakshmi
Om vishnu prayāyi namo namah: Multiple salutations to the synonym* of Lord Vishnu
Om dhan pradāyī namo namah: Multiple salutations to the giver of wealth
Om vishwa jananānyī namo namah: Multiple salutations to the begetter of all people of the world

* Synonym: Have doubts about that.

Om vishnu prayāyi namo namah

I'm thinking om vishnupriyāyai namo namah. Priya being beloved, priyāyai being the inflected (dative) form for feminine singular.

"Multiple salutations to the beloved of Lord Vishnu". I'd say literally it's "to Vishnu beloved".

It could also be om vishnupatnyai namo namah

Consider Her gayatri:

om mahalakshmyai cha vidmahe
vishnupatnyai [wife of Vishnu, lit. Vishnuwife] cha dhimahi
tanno lakshmih prachodayat

Just some guesses. :)

Btw, prayA means "start up" or "get running". PrayAyi (actually prayAyai) means "to Vishnu's start up". o_O Well, some wives do get their husbands moving (I'd be sooo going to hell if there were a hell :D ).

Om. Let us meditate on the Great Goddess Sri Lakshmi, the consort of Sri Maha Vishnu. May that effulgent Maha Lakshmi Devi inspire and illuminate our mind with understanding
