520 |a The Christian doctrine of the Trinity arose from the need to reconcile the divinity of Jesus with monotheism. Srivaisnava theologians faced a similar problem with their belief in the Goddess Sri or Laksmi and her husband Visnu or Narayana as two distinct deities in one godhead. The article examines the ways in which the divinity of Sri and her oneness with Visnu are upheld, using Ramanuja's Saranagati-gadya, Vedanta Desika's Rahasyatrayasara, and Lokacarya Pillai's Mumuksupadi. It then presents some of the scriptural sources and philosophical concepts with which the theologians support their position. In conclusion, the doctrine is briefly compared with the Christian Trinity and the Saiva ardhanarisvara.
