Śrīsaṃvara (श्रीसंवर) is the name of a deity [i.e., śrī saṃvaraṃ namāmyaham], according to the Guru Mandala Worship (maṇḍalārcana) ritual often performed in combination with the Cakrasaṃvara Samādhi, which refers to the primary pūjā and sādhanā practice of Newah Mahāyāna-Vajrayāna Buddhists in Nepal.—Accordingly, “Oṃ abundant omniscient knowledge, gladdening for the world’s sake, Come forth like a wish fulfilling gem, Śrī Saṃvara, I give homage”.
