In Hinduism, Lakshmi is the goddess of wealth, prosperity, and fortune. She is widely worshipped by Hindus and other Indians for her blessings of material wealth and spiritual prosperity. In Indian art and literature, Lakshmi is often depicted as a beautiful, golden goddess with multiple arms and holding lotus flowers, which symbolize the abundant material and spiritual blessings she bestows.

Lakshmi symbolizes the abundance and Being-ness, or unlimited potential, that dwells within each individual. She is the embodiment of the auspicious energy of the universe and a reminder of the inherent richness and beauty that lies within us all. Worshipping Lakshmi is a reminder to focus on cultivating inner richness and spiritual wealth, rather than solely material possessions.
