How to meditate on Goddess Lakshmi
Goddess Mahalakshmi is Adibhuta, Trigunmayi and Parameshwari. He has two forms with the distinction of express and latent. He is situated in both those forms by pervading the whole world.

Kantya Kanchanasamnibha Himgiriprakhyayashturbhigajai harstoksiptahiranmayyamritghatairasichyamanam shriyam.
Bibhranam varambajajugambhayambhayam haste: kiritojjavalam kshaumabandhan nitambabimbalasitan vandervindasthitam.
The meaning of the said verse is – Whose radiance is as bright as the golden color and who is anointed by four Gajrajas of very bright color like the Himalayas with their trunks with the nectar urn, who holds in their four hands respectively Varamudra, Abhayamudra and two lotuses. Whose head is adorned with a magnificent curry of bright colours, on whose forehead Kausheya clothes are being adorned. I worship Bhagwati Lakshmi situated on such a lotus.
Importance of Maa Lakshmi
Bhagwati Mahalakshmi is an integral power of Lord Vishnu and she is his constant companion like the sun and his radiance and the right energy of fire and moonlight. According to the Puranas, she is known as Bhargavi for being the daughter of Padmavanvasini, Sagartanaya and Bhrigu’s wife Khyati. She is also known as Padma, Padmalya, Sri, Kamala, Haripriya, Indira, Rama, Samudratanaya, Bhargavi, Jaladhija etc. There are many Shatnams and thousands of names available. This is Vaishnavi Shakti. Whenever Lord Vishnu incarnates, then he incarnates with him in the form of Lakshmi, Sita, Radha, Rukmini etc. The worship of Goddess Kamala, the Leela Vilas consort of Mahavishnu, is actually the worship of Jagadadhar Shakti. In the absence of his grace, there is a lack of opulence in the soul. The worship of these Adishakti around the world is equally prevalent in all the Agama-Nigams. They have been counted in Tantric texts under the name Kamalatmika under ten Mahavidyas.
