Lakshmi Mantra
Om Lakshmiyei Namaha
wealth (inner abundance), beauty (within and without), worth, boundaries, transformation
Fire
This is a virtual fire ceremony so you can participate simply by engaging with your heart during the video.
After 108 mantras, the video ends. This is a time for you to sit in meditation and integrate your experience with the energy of Kamala.
You also have the option to:
Light a candle so you have the element of fire physically present with you as well.
Use your mala (if have) and chant Om Kamalayei Namaha Svaha 108x with me.
Create your own personal fire ceremony and offer rice after each mantra along with me. Here is the video link for creating a personal fire ceremony.
Meditation
Lakshmi meditation reflection:
What was your experience of beauty in this meditation?
What kind of boundaries can you set to preserve and nourish beauty?
What kind of wealth can you feel and imagine that goes beyond the material?
Oh Goddess you are the one who is worshiped in all the three worlds,
Oh Kamala, Oh Consort of Lord Vishnu,
Oh Consort of Krishna, If only you are stable,
And abide by me forever.
Oh Kamala, Oh unstable one, Oh Lakshmi,
Oh Goddess who moves everything, Oh Goddess of prosperity,
Oh Darling of Hari, Oh Padma, Oh goddess who lives in the lotus,
Oh Goddess who is pleasant, Oh Goddess who is exalted,
Oh Goddess of wealth, Oh Goddess who holds a lotus.
— Shri Dakshina Lakshmi Stotram
