Dhyāna (meditation): Meditate upon her as Brāhmī and Vaiṣṇavī, auspicious, six-armed, four-faced, three-eyed, bearing a sword, trident, lotus, discus, and mace — the radiant one adorned with divine ornaments of every kind, wearing yellow garments, holding a mass of effulgence, most excellent — to be meditated as a youthful maiden.

Wearing yellow garments, the Devī adorned with ornaments of every kind, bearing a mass of radiance, most excellent — one should meditate upon her as a youthful maiden.

Oṃkāra — [she is] the form of Lakṣmī; Viṣṇu — [he is] the imperishable Vāgbhava; Viṣṇu — the unmanifest Ānanda; Hrīṃkāra — [she is] the one whose form is the seed-syllable. [To these] I bow.

Klīṃ — to Amṛtānandinī (she who revels in nectar-bliss), the auspicious one, the bestower of true bliss; Śrīṃ — to Daityaśamanī (the queller of demons), the Śakti, Mālinī, the vanquisher of enemies.

The illuminatrix of radiance, the Devī, the boon-giver, the auspicious doer; Brāhmī, Vaiṣṇavī, Raudrī, the one resplendent in the form of Kālikā — [to her, salutation].

In the letter 'A' [of Oṃ], [she is] the form of Lakṣmī; in the letter 'U', [he is] the imperishable Viṣṇu; the letter 'M' is the unmanifest Puruṣa — the Devī [as a whole] is called the Praṇava (Oṃ).

Radiant as crores of suns, of the same splendor as crores of moons — within that [luminous expanse], a subtle mass established as the form of Brahman.

Oṃkāra, supreme bliss, ever the beautiful one of the gods — O Siddhalakṣmī! O Mokṣalakṣmī! O Ādyalakṣmī! Salutation to you.

Śrīṃkāra, supreme, accomplished, giver of all intelligence — O one of auspicious fortune, O Nectar, O Kamalā, O Satyalakṣmī! Salutation to you.

The fifth is Viṣṇuśakti; the sixth is Kātyāyanī; the seventh is indeed Vārāhī; and the eighth is Harivallabhā.

Those persons who always recite this excellent stotram of the Devī are liberated from all calamities — there is no doubt in this matter.

One who recites this [stotram] three times daily for one month, two months, three months, four months, five months, or six months continuously...

A Brahmin who is afflicted, suffering, tormented by fear and poverty — is freed from all sins accumulated across thousands of births.

The destitute obtains Lakṣmī; the childless becomes blessed with children. One becomes blessed, famous, a destroyer of enemies, and protected from fire and theft.

Against Śākinī demons, ghosts, vetālas, serpents, and tigers; in royal courts, public assemblies, and during imprisonment — [the recitation of this stotram protects].

This stotram composed by Īśvara (Śiva) is beneficial to all living beings. Let Brāhmins recite it daily — poverty shall never afflict them.

Lakṣmī who removes all sins and bestows all accomplishments — practitioners obtain everything by continuous recitation of this stotram.

That Śrī who dwells in lotus-forests, on kadamba-treetops, in royal palaces, on elephants, on white steeds, on the sacred bull, on the pair of sacred animals, at the sacrificial post, in conch-shells, in divine lineages, in kings' palaces, on the banks of the Gaṅgā, in Gōkula — may that Śrī dwell in my home always, ever immovable.

She who is seated on the lotus throne, with broad and graceful hips, with eyes wide as lotus-petals, with deep whirling navel, bowing forward under the weight of her bosom, clad in spotless white garments — Lakṣmī, bathed by divine royal elephants pouring from gem-studded golden pitchers — she who is ever lotus-handed: may she ever dwell in my home, the source of all auspiciousness.
