Brahma Muhurta

Sri Suktam, a revered hymn from the RigVeda, is dedicated to Goddess Lakshmi, embodying prosperity, abundance, and divine beauty. Sri Suktam is an ancient prayer that invokes the goddess of wealth, both material and spiritual, to bless devotees with affluence, health, and the radiant inner joy that only divine grace can bestow.

The Shri Sukta describes Shri as glorious, ornamented, royal, lustrous as gold, and radiant as fire, moon, and the sun. She is addressed as the bestower of fame, bounty and abundance in the form of gold, gems, cattle, horses and food.  Shri is represented by the most auspicious beeja mantra Shreem (श्रीं). This is known as Lakshmi Beeja mantra.

This ancient text serves as a cornerstone for many Hindu spiritual and ritualistic practices, especially those aimed at attracting abundance in life. In this article, we will explore the significance, sadhana, rituals, and meanings of the Sri Suktam.
