May the Mother-Goddess Mahalakshmi eternally remain installed in the temple of my soul, Mahalakshmi, at whose feet in a single particle of dust are the abundant treasures of the highest Heavens of God, shining for years everlasting.

  Propitious, She in Her love, gives much more than the heart could desire.

   Each step of Hers upon earth imparts a touch of the Spirit and creates the beauty of the Eternal.

   The influence of Her love and delight She spreads abroad. Pure and joy-awakening, She dwells in the fully blown lotus of the heart with Her praises always sung by poets of bee-like devotion.

   May that Goddess by Her grace grant boons which even the gods desire.

   At the lotus-feet of Mother Lakshmi is the raining cloud of the Spirit, Her arms are two tender beautiful branches of God's garden, adorned by flowers.

   The face of Shree Mata houses the immortal Dawn which is the giver of the Sun of the Supramental World.

   And in the net of her smile is snared the most auspicious fulfilment of the fortune of the three worlds.
