SrI:

Dear BhakthAs of the Lord of Saptha Giri :

The 18th Naamam: (PraNavam) SrIharayE Nama:
******************************************
This naamam is close to two VishNu Sahasra nAmams:

(1) Jn~Aya UtthamAya nama: ( 457th Naamam)/Jn~Amamuttham.
(2) Jn~AnagamyAya nama: ( 501st Naamam) 

Meaning of SrI Jn~Ana-PanjarAya Nama:
**************************************
Salutation to the Lord of Sapthagiri ,
who is the Utthama Jn~Anam ( Supreme and
True knowledge) inside the cage of Veda-VedAntham ! 

Additional Comments on the Jn~Ana Panjara Tatthvam
***************************************************
Swamy Desikan 's SrI VaradarAja PanchAsath slOkam
(20th slOkam ) is pertinent here:

NaagAchalEsa nikhilOpanishad-maneeshA--
manjUshikA-Marakatham parichinvathAm ThvAm
tanvI hrudhi sphurathi kAapi sikhA munInAm
soudhAmanIeeva nibruthA nava-mEgha-garbhA:

(meaning): Oh Lord VaradarAjA! Thou art like the Emerald
gem inside the beautiful (glass) box of Upanishads. You are thus 
the marakatha MaNi VaNNan sitting inside the Upanishad
manthrams. This is so because , all Upanishads (Jn~Ana
KaaNdam) speak in a single voice about Your glories .
You thus become the inner meaning of the Upanishads.
You with Your hue of dark rain cloud are also shining 
forth as a radiant flame (JwAlai/lightnig) inside the hearts
of the Sages (Jn~Anis) , who are performing Tapas. They
meditate upon the agni jwAlai inside their heart cavity
during this tapas .

That Lord is the Utthama Jn~Anam is indicated by 
the VishNu sahasra Naamam , "SughOshAya Nama:" (459th
Naamam. This nAmam means that He is saluted by the voice
of Upanishads as the Supreme Jn~Ana svaroopan. He is 
the protector of DharmA ( "Dharma -gup, 476th VishNU
Sahasra Naamam).He is Dharma-krith (Practioner of His dharmAs,
477th Naamam). He is Dharmee ( He is the One with Dharma 
as His instrument, 478th Naamam).Jn~Anis comprehend Him as 
" Sadaksharam " ( One who is eternal without decrease or
destruction. His Jn~Ana Svaroopam never alters , 480th
Naamam ).

Thus the Lord of Saptha Giri sits inside the auspicious cage 
of Upanishads as an emerald gem with "SahasrAmsu: " , thousand 
rays of Knowledge (Jn~Anam). That is why He is saluted as Jn~Ana
Panjaran. 

SrI Jn~Ana panjarAya Nama:
Srimad Azhagiya Singar ThiruvadigaLE SaraNam,
