Overview
The 108 Names of Lord Venkatesha (Sri Venkateswara Ashtottara Shatanamavali) is a Sanskrit namavali listing 108 names of Lord Venkateswara, a form of Vishnu worshipped at the Tirumala temple in Andhra Pradesh. Each name highlights an attribute of the deity — his abode on the Tirumala hills, his cosmic role, and his connection to Goddess Lakshmi. The namavali is a standard part of Venkateswara puja.
What are the benefits of chanting 108 Names of Lord Venkatesha?
- Recitation is traditionally performed as a complete act of puja in itself.
- Associated with the removal of obstacles and accumulated sins.
- Chanted for fulfilment of wishes and for good fortune.
- Thursdays and festival days at Tirumala are considered particularly appropriate for recitation.
- Supports a focused and meditative approach to Venkateswara worship.
When is the best time to recite this?

Historical and traditional background
Lord Venkateswara is a form of Vishnu whose worship at Tirumala has a long history, with inscriptions and records attesting to the temple's prominence for over a thousand years. The 108-name format is drawn from Puranic and Agamic literature describing Vishnu and his manifestations. The specific compilation of this namavali reflects the Vaishnava devotional tradition of South India, and its authorship is attributed to the collective tradition rather than a single composer.
