Everyone desires to attain Lakshmi. For the blessings of Lakshmi, it is very important to seek the blessings of Lord Vishnu because Lakshmi resides at his feet. In the pictures of Mother Lakshmi and Lord Vishnu, it is seen that Mother Lakshmi is pressing the feet of Lord Vishnu. Lord Vishnu has controlled her only by the power of his efforts. Lakshmi remains under the control of those who are always concerned about the welfare of all. The Lakshmi that Vishnu has is wealth and property. Lord Shri Hari knows its proper use. For this reason, Mahalakshmi lives at the feet of Shri Vishnu as his maid.
Let us know why Mother Lakshmi presses the feet of Lord Vishnu. Once Narad ji asked Mother Lakshmi why she always keeps pressing the feet of Lord Vishnu. Lakshmi ji replied that whether it is a human being or a deity, no one remains untouched by the influence of the planets. Devguru Jupiter resides in the hands of women. So in the feet of men is the demon Guru Shukracharya. In such a situation, whenever a woman presses the feet of a man, a union of gods and demons takes place and this leads to financial gain. That’s why I always press the feet of Sri Hari
According to another legend, Lakshmi ji’s sister Alakshmi was jealous of him. This is because Alakshmi was not attractive at all. He had bright eyes, long hair and big teeth. Whenever Goddess Lakshmi was with her husband i.e. Shri Hari, Alakshmi always reached there. Lakshmi ji did not like this behavior at all. He asked Alakshmi why don’t you leave me and my husband alone. Then Alakshmi said that no one worships her. Therefore, wherever Lakshmi ji goes, she will come with her. Hearing this, Goddess Lakshmi became angry and cursed Alakshmi. He said that the god of death is your husband. Wherever there is filth, jealousy, greed, laziness, anger, you will reside there. In such a situation, Mother Lakshmi always keeps removing the dirt from her husband’s feet so that Lakshmi can never come near him.
It is said that good fortune and bad luck go together. In such a situation, bad luck often keeps looking for opportunities to enter your life. Similarly, Alakshmi also sits outside the house and waits for Lakshmi to leave. Where filth is present or there is greed and jealousy, an atmosphere of discord and strife is created. This indicates that Goddess Alakshmi has entered the house. In such a situation, people should keep worshiping Goddess Lakshmi continuously so that Goddess Lakshmi is not able to enter the house.
Lakshmi ji sits near her husband’s feet and asserts her sole authority over his love. In this way, they are making every possible effort to keep their husband away from another woman. And Lakshmi ji is also giving this message to every woman that pressing her husband’s feet does not mean becoming his slave. Rather, I want to become the queen of his heart.
Wherever filth is present, an environment of greed, jealousy, fights between husband and wife, obscenity, distress and discord is created. This is a sign that Goddess Alakshmi has entered the house. To keep Alakshmi away and to invite Goddess Lakshmi, daily pujas along with cleaning are done in every house related to Hindu religion so that the people of the house can be protected from negative energy. If any deity is worshipped, then that The element of the deity comes to the worshiper and symptoms are visible accordingly. For example, worshiping Shri Lakshmi leads to wealth. If the worship decreases and the ego gets awakened then the element of the deity leaves the worshipper, for these reasons Shri Lakshmi leaves the worshipper. Then, instead of accepting his own mistake, the person says that Lakshmi is fickle. The point worth keeping in mind here is that if Lakshmi had been fickle, she would have left the feet of Shri Vishnu long ago.
