Hindu Mythology


Lakshmi

Lakshmi is the goddess of wealth and good fortune. In two of her four arms, she carries a lotus blossom (symbol of the soul) and a coin to denote blessing and wealth. As the consort of the protector, she embodies the active side of creation: Vishnu stand for the idea of creation, Lakshmi represents the creative process itself.
Lakshmi in my own words.
Lakshmi is the Hindu Goddess of good fortune an wealth. The blossoms that she holds in two of her four hands represent the sould, and the coins symbolize the spreding of wealth. Lakshmi also symbolizes the creation of life.

Kartikeyya


The son of Shiva, called Kumara, Skanda, Subrahmaya or Kartikeyya, is the god of war. In one story of his birth, he was born from the Ganges Rivers, and is know as Ganga-ja or “born from the Ganges”. In another, he started life as six children made from six sparks from Shiva’s eyes.
