appealed to Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi, they repeatedly prostrate before her with
tears on their eyes, while Lord Bhrama, Shankara, Shesha, Dharma/Lord Yama and
Keshava were present in the assembly of deities. Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi offered a marvelous
garland which was handed by Lord Keshava as boon
to the deities to attain triumph over the enemies, and all the deities were highly
pleased and returned to their abodes.
Sri Devi speaks “whoever read or listens
to the above verses praising the splendor of Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi during the
hours of dawn, noon and dusk, would remain wealthiest like Lord Kubera, and the King would become mighty Emperor,
whoever read or listen to it for half a million times would attain all the
spiritual fervor, whoever read or listen to it for a month relentlessly would become
equivalent to Indhra.”
