ଅଷ୍ଟଲକ୍ଷ୍ମୀସ୍ତୁତିଃ (ସଚ୍ଚିଦାନନ୍ଦ ସ୍ଵାମୀଜୀ କୃତ)

Eight verses, one to each of the eight Lakshmis, composed by Ganapati Sachchidananda Swami of the Datta Pitha, and built so plainly that the form of the set is visible at a glance: every verse names its goddess in its last line and salutes her. The first is Gajalakshmi — seated in the middle of the chariot, horses before her, wakened by the trumpeting of elephants, giver of empire. The second is Dhanalakshmi, and it begins by widening what wealth means: fire is wealth, wind is wealth, and wealth is the five elements; to her who joins together abundant lordship. The rest follow in order through Dhanya, Dhairya, Santana, Vijaya, Vidya and Adilakshmi, each with the same closing salutation.
