Origin & Story

Lakshmi Tantra and various Puranas · Vedic and Tantric tradition · Ancient

Lakshmi mantras use the bija syllable Shreem which is the sonic essence of abundance. Lakshmi emerged during the Samudra Manthan standing on a lotus, choosing Vishnu as her eternal consort. Her mantras invoke this primordial energy of prosperity.

✦ As told in scripture

The Vishnu Purana states that wherever Lakshmi's mantra is chanted with devotion, poverty cannot exist — just as darkness cannot exist where there is light. During Diwali, millions chant Lakshmi mantras at midnight, and tradition holds that Lakshmi herself visits homes filled with her sacred chanting.

How to Chant Lakshmi Mantra

Best TimeFriday evening or sunrise
FaceEast

Friday is Lakshmi's sacred day. Begin or deepen your practice on a Friday. The Lakshmi Puja during Diwali is the most powerful time of the year. Create a clean, beautiful space — Lakshmi is drawn to cleanliness, beauty and order. A few flowers and a candle are ideal. Offer a yellow flower or yellow cloth — yellow and gold are Lakshmi's colours. Marigolds are traditional. Chant 108 times facing east using a lotus mala or crystal mala if available. As you chant Shreem, visualise your home, work and relationships all bathed in warm golden light — the light of Lakshmi's grace. Feel genuine gratitude for what you already have as you invite more abundance.
