Dear Sri Chary svAmin,
You are right. Even in the Vishnu-Sahasranamam, one finds reference
only to 'dEvaki-nandana' ("dEvaki nandana shrasta ksheeteesha:
pApanAshanah:..."). If my memory serves me right, I don't think there
is even a single mention of Yasoda in the SahasranAmam.
It seems to me that while the 'sruti' and 'smriti' are partial
towards Devaki the "petrat-thAi", the AzhwArs on the other hand
favoured Yasoda, the "vallartha-thAi"!
I wonder what other members think.
Rgds,
dAsan,
Sudarshan
