525 OM pramodaaya (pramodanaaya??) namaH .
'Ever-blissful'. One who is constantly enjoying His own Eternal, Blissful
nature. The term indicates 'Vishnu' because Sri Narayana is the One that
causes bliss in the heart of those who meditate upon Him.

====================================================================
687 OM puNyaaya namaH .
"The truly-Holy." When the devotee's heart is filled with remembrance of the
glorious Form Divine and Infinite Nature Supreme of the Lord Vishnu, He then,
in that very moment, removes all sin from His devotee's heart. The Lord is
Auspiciousness itself, so where He is invoked, all inauspiciousness must
immediately retire.

====================================================================
408 OM praaNadaayai namaH .
This can mean "One who gives 'PraaNa'" or as "One who takes away 'PraaNa'",
because, the root 'da' has both the meanings, 'to give' and 'to break'.
Therefore, Vishnu is the Supreme who gives PraaNa to all creatures in the
beginning of creation, and He alone is again the One who destroys all PraaNas
(movements) at the time of dissolution.

====================================================================
865 OM niyamaaya (aniyamaaya??) namaH . ##(see 161)##
"One Who is not under the laws of anyone else." He is the Law and the only
Law-Giver. It is His hand that governs the inscrutable and unrelenting laws of
nature.

====================================================================
881 OM ravaye namaH .
"One Who absorbs the vapours (Rasa) from everything."
As the Soorya-Narayana, Sree Hari dries up everything in the universe.
