  • The two Lakshmi panels are sold as a set.  This fantastic Ashta Lakshmi wooden wall panel set depicts eights versions of Lakshmi.  Ashta Lakshmi are a group of 8 Hindu Goddesses who are manifestations of the Hindu Goddess of wealth Lakshmi.  They preside over the eight sources of wealth: prosperity, good health, knowledge, strength, progeny, and power. 

    These two wall hangings are a one of a kind panels hand carved by the wood artists of South India.  The 2 panels pictured are the only panels Lotus Sculpture has like this in our store.  When you order this set you will receive the exact panels pictured.  They are truly one of a kind as there is only one set made exactly like this! 

    Please let us know if you would like us to add hooks to the two panels so they can be mounted to a wall.

  • "Beautiful goddess seated on a chariot, delighted by songs on lustful elephants, bedecked with lotuses, pearls and gems, lustrous as fire, radiant as gold, resplendent as the sun, calm as the moon, mistress of cows and horses - take away poverty and misfortune bring joy, riches, harvest and children."

    Draped in red saree, bedecked with gold ornaments, seated on a lotus, pot in hand, flanked by white elephants, the image of Lakshmi adorns most Hindu homes and business establishments.

    Lakshmi is the goddess of wealth, fortune, power, luxury, beauty, fertility, and auspiciousness.  She holds the promise of material fulfillment and contentment.  She is described as restless, whimsical yet maternal, with her arms raised to bless and to grant her blessings.

    Shri is the sacred name of Lakshmi.  Shri is written atop most documents and spoken before addressing a god, teacher holy man or any revered individual.  The word evokes grace, affluence abundance, auspiciousness and authority.  When the word is spoken or written an aura of holiness is established.  Whatever follows is imbued with divine blessing.  Just as the word "Om" is associated with the mystical side of life, Shri is associated with the material side of existence.

    Lakshmi represents the beautiful and bountiful aspect of nature.  As Bhoodevi, the earth-goddess, she nurtures life; as Shreedevi, the goddess of fortune, she bestows power, pleasure and prosperity on those who deserve her grace.  To realize her, one must respect the laws of life and appreciate the wonders of existence.
