Rukmini And the asthabharyas
In the epics section of literature please add that Rukmini and Asthabharyas are incarnations of Devi Lakshmi 60.243.150.226 (talk) 11:19, 20 July 2025 (UTC)
- They are already listed under incarnations by name. Arnold300 (talk) 15:37, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello,
I like the explanation of Lakshmi at this english site and would like to translate it in german, because I think in german language something is missing and these conclusions are very nice! Would that be possible?
Greetings Maria Magdalena
- You can translate any article you like, but just make sure you read de:Wikipedia:Übersetzungen. Alpha Beta Delta Lambda (talk) 19:24, 6 August 2025 (UTC)

Please change the sentence, "Each goddess of the triad is mentioned in Śrī Sūkta, Bhu Sūkta and Nila Sūkta, respectively.[90][91][92]"
in the, "Manifestations and aspects" section to, "Each goddess of the triad is mentioned in Śrī Sūkta, as Śrī Sūkta, Bhu Sūkta and Nila Sūkta, respectively.[90][91][92]"

Partly done: Suggested change is not quite clear. Did make some change for clarity - "Each goddess of this triad—Sridevi, Bhudevi, and Nila Devi—is mentioned in the Śrī Sūkta, Bhu Sūkta, and Nila Sūkta, respectively." Hope this helps. Asteramellus (talk) 22:41, 12 August 2025 (UTC)
Her children
Please add her children in the body of the article if not the info box. 50.115.68.134 (talk) 18:39, 14 September 2025 (UTC)
- Regarding the citied sources
- they are from Rigveda the primordial source of vedism ,
- valli and devasena are daughters of Vishnu Lakshmi according to skand Puran
- and Kanadeva - Mahalakshmi stotram by Adi Sankaracharya states as ‘madanachi Janani’ - mother of kamdev
- so when citations are authentic
- adding her children in infobox is justifiable as it gives information regarding her in prime point 2409:40F4:2112:193:E171:42BE:1E45:7A29 (talk) 19:08, 14 September 2025 (UTC)
- They aren’t in info boxe, I suppose, because the topic isn’t mainstream or popular. But they definitely deserve to be included in the article body. 50.115.68.134 (talk) 21:39, 14 September 2025 (UTC)
- So it should be added right 103.171.108.166 (talk) 09:48, 15 September 2025 (UTC)
- Added Pointn (talk) 10:02, 15 September 2025 (UTC)
- Please add it to the body of the article instead of info box with proper formatting and citations @Pointn 2601:205:4A81:F260:D1BB:37C0:CC41:18C7 (talk) 22:54, 15 September 2025 (UTC)

Section for Major Temples
@Shreyag97 I see you have reverted my changes with no edit summary. I had noted in the edit summary the reason for my removal of the section "removing section for Major Temples - mostly unsourced indiscriminate list - Seems Category: Lakshmi temples exists for such collection". Want to see your thoughts on why you have reverted my changes. Asteramellus (talk) 23:32, 26 October 2025 (UTC)
