The champU kAvyam, `syAnandUrapura varNana prabandham' penned by Maharaja
SvAti tirunAL of Travanacore/ Trivandrum, deals with the mammoth temple
of Lord PadmanAbha, the various temple rituals, pUja, and the festivals
associated with the temple, and so on. The work is a champU (prose
mixed with poerty) arranged in 10 stabakas, and in the last stabakam
(verses 15 to 26), the following prayer to Lord Padmanabha appears. It is
appropriately called `padmanAbha nati dashakam.'  The verses, addressed
to Lord Padmanabha, follow the same style, construction and philosophy,
as that of Adi Sankara's `shrIdakshinamurthi Stotram.'
