GODDESS LAKSHMI INVOCATION

Greatest Mother
Beautiful and loving
Clothed in red and green
And brightest gold
Crown of gold and jewels
Chains of gold on arms and neck
Bells of gold about your ankles
Shining as the sun.
Bring the gold of prosperity
The gold of money
The gold of happiness and hope.
Greatest blessed goddess
You who are full and powerful,
Mother who loves
And feels for us, her children
Heart full of maternal wisdom
Give us wealth and care
Scatter your blessings as jewels
Upon us who need your help,
Reach down with your perfect hands
And let the arid lands of our poverty grow green,
Dance upon the rivers of life
And bring forth the pink lotus
Of abundance and joy.
We are in dire need,
Fill our home with food
Cover the fields with life
Open the grasping hands
And let great wealth
Freely flow to us who need.
Mother, we call you
A billion hungry voices,
Mother we need you
Mother we beseech you
Let us live in prosperity!
Fill our hands with plenty
Transmit the wisdom of sharing
Bring the joy of fulfillment
Ease all suffering
With your love and your compassion.
You are living here now
Source of all teachings and of all good
You fill the sky
Creatrix of all things
You smash the demons
Of need and poverty
As a lioness riding the power
Of the raging storm.
Great Lakshmi,
We invoke you here and now
Fill our arms
With the universal blessings
Grant these simple goals to us now
And to each and every human being
Bring wealth!
Bring wealth!
Bring money!
Bring money!
Bring prosperity!
Bring prosperity!
That your joy may be mirrored
In the chants of universal rejoicing

On hrim srim Lakshmi namah svaha!


This invocation comes from the book The Ultimate Guide to Goddess Empowerment.
