Sri:
Srimathe Ramanujaya Nama:

Sri Pillai Lokacharya's
Mumukshuppadi

Sutra:
129. thiruvadiyaip poRuppikkumavaL thansolvazhi varumavanaip
poRuppikkas solla vENdAviRE.

Meaning:
Sh was able to make Hanuman change his mind when he wanted 
to kill the rakshasis who had tortured Her when she was 
imprisoned. Therefore, is there a need to wonder that She 
should be able to make Her consort, who listens to Her, 
change His mind.

Sri PBA Swami's Sarartha Deepikai:
All of the previous points are true. But, Sriman Narayana
is supremely independent. If He decides that He will not
forgive the sins of the chetanas and will punish them
for those crimes, will Mahalakshmi be able to stop Him?

This argument is made by those who are not aware of Her
abilities. During Her imprisonment in Lanka, She was
tortured without stop by the rakshasis who surrounded Her.
Upon seeing that, Hanuman had decided that he will take
care of them after Sri Rama's victory. Once Ravana was 
killed, Hanuman went to Her and asked Her permission to
kill those rakshasis. At that point, She advised Hanuman
and made him change his mind. When She is able to make 
one who would not listen easily to anyone change his 
mind, what is the need to question that She should be 
able to change the mind of Her consort who delights in
Her ("allimalar magaL bOga mayakkukkaLAgiyum niRkum 
ammAn") and who always listens to Her, even in the
instance when She asks Him to go after a false deer 
("ninnanbin vazhi ninRu silaipidiththempirAnE").
