# Our Lady Lakshmi: The Goddess of Love, Beauty and Abundance

# # Legend of the Birth of Our Lady Lakshmi

In the Purana of Hinduism, Our Lady Lakshmi was born of a great event called the "Guan of the Ocean," or the stirring of the elixir in the ocean of milk. When the angels and demons together stirred up the ocean to obtain the elixir, Our Lady Lakshmi sprang up from a pure ripple, sat on a beautiful pink lotus, holding a lotus, a golden halo surrounded the body. At that instant, Vishnu, the guardian of the universe, was enchanted and received Mother Lakshmi as Chaya forever.
