Sri Ashta Lakshmi Stuti (Sri Ganapati Sachchidananda Swamiji)

    1.    I bow to Gaja Lakshmi, who awakens with the sound of elephants and horses, bestowing sovereignty and royal prosperity upon her devotees.
    2.    Fire, air, and all elements themselves are forms of wealth — I bow to Dhana Lakshmi, the giver of abundant material riches.
    3.    I worship Dhanya Lakshmi, born of the Earth’s womb, representing grains, harvests, and all forms of agricultural abundance.
    4.    I bow to Dhairya Lakshmi, who removes envy, anger, fear, and confusion, granting courage and peace to the humble.
    5.    In the form of children and grandchildren, manifesting as life itself — I bow to Santana Lakshmi, the giver of progeny.
    6.    Bestower of knowledge, intellect, purity, and immortality — I bow to Vidya Lakshmi, who grants divine wisdom.
    7.    Ever-auspicious, gentle, and radiant with grace — I bow to Adi Lakshmi, who grants eternal fortune and virtue.
    8.    I bow to Vijaya Lakshmi, embodiment of all powers, who bestows success, accomplishment, and spiritual fulfillment.
    9.    I salute Mahalakshmi, beloved of Lord Vishnu, in whom all eight Lakshmis reside, the giver of both prosperity and liberation.
    10.    Reciting this Ashta Lakshmi Stuti removes poverty, brings prosperity, and fills life with divine bliss and completeness.
