Who is Goddess Narayani?
Namaste,
I was reading a commentary on the popular Devi Sahasranama(LS).In that for the name Narayani Devi,explanation was given as - the sister of Sri Narayana i.e. Devi Uma Parvati.I was surprised as I assumed Devi Narayani to be Devi Lakshmi.Sri Vishnu's shakti is Vaishnavi Devi,Brahma's shakti is Brahmani Devi,so in the same way I felt it for Narayani Devata.But I am wrong as few other books also give the same meaning.Can members explain why Narayani Devi is Devi Uma Parvati and not Devi Lakshmi?
