MOTHER MAHALAKSHMI OF KOLHAPUR

In fine, it can hold the world to ran son. The impact of its Viswarupa is known to one and all, the moment its legal tender worth is expressed. There is no sentient, rational, mentally sound and living being, free from the snares of this i.e. MONEY. Although it is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent and non-pariel in all, and all in all, it has limitations. Sure, it is above all only on earth and over mankind that too. But the celestials are immune from this; for, they are above humans i.e. devoid of Mannism-greed and egotism. So its malignity does not enter the heaven, nor does it hold such sway on them, as it is on earth. Among them, some on certain occasions might have been swayed by passion for power or pomp but certainly not to MONEY, as it is seen on earth, where it has succeeded in demonstration of its powers, like recreating heaven on earth, Nandanavanas in Arabian deserts; paradises under saline jalarasis; EL Dorados around the poles .....

Such infinite abstract might, when changed into tangible, living form-personified, it goes by the auspicious name of Mahalakshmi - the presiding, deity of wealth. She is the dear most spouse of Lord Mahavishnu, who enshrined her on His chest.
