Devi Lakshmi - Goddess Of Prosperity Poem by Geeta Radhakrishna Menon

Devi Lakshmi - Goddess Of Prosperity

Rating: 5.0


Devi Lakshmi - The Goddess of wealth,
Is selective and choosy.
When she gives, she gives in abundance,
Filling you with plentitude and prosperity.
She shuns the lazy man, full of inertia,
She refrains from helping the lethargic people.

A wealthy man has to keep a strict awareness
On himself or how it affects him.
If he becomes proud and conceited,
Then, Goddess Lakshmi knows to turn the table,
She becomes ‘Alakshmi'-
She pushes the rich man into a dark abyss!

She reserves her affection
For those who earn their wealth
In an honest and sincere way!
Goddess Lakshmi blesses only
Those who toil hard and share
Their wealth to reach their goal in life!

Goddess Lakshmi visits places
That are spotlessly clean and bright.
She abhors dirty and filthy places!
To remain the favourite of Lakshmi,
One has to cultivate cleanliness, clarity
Of body, mind, speech and the surroundings.

The white owl who keeps vigil and alert,
Like a night watchman
Is the vehicle of Goddess Lakshmi!
A strict awareness of every action in life,
A constant check on falling a prey to arrogance
Is a compulsion, to remain healthy, wealthy and happy!

So this navratra you paint all the good vibes we have forgotten. Beautiful about money Insight. Very well said, we need to understand the value of money and walk accordingly.

She reserves her affection For those who earn their wealth In an honest and sincere way! .... //.... A very cordial portrayal of the ways in which Goddess Laxmi showers her bounties on those who deserve it and shares it with needy. She distances herself from those who are lethargic and live in an unclean environment and do not bother about the purity of body, mind, speech. For them, she becomes Alaxmi. Thanks, Geeta ji, for this festive treat.

Goddess Laxmi, Goddess of wealth is graciously worshipped with greater hope. Spotlessly clean and bright places are visited by her. She helps her devotees with her greatest grace. This poem is brilliantly penned in her tribute.
