ReplyDeleteBut i want to make clear that Maha is not abjective here to Laxmi.
Goddess laxmi is consort of Lord Vishnu not Goddess MahaLaxmi. She is supreme Goddess, she is sri vidya. (read Devi Mahatmyam).
She is mool of every thing. She though Tamas roop rpoduce mahakali and through satav roop she produces Maha Saraswati. Thus she is trigunatmika , she is thus tripura sundari.
Its very good that the devotional songs are available on such sites so that the young generation can have the glimse of our rich and varied religion.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot.
