Lord Vishnu, the sustainer of the
universe, rests comfortably on the magnificent coils of Adishesha, the king of
serpents. Goddess
Lakshmi, adorned with exquisite jewellery and draped in resplendent
garments, reclines lovingly beside Lord Vishnu.
As the goddess of wealth and prosperity, she is the epitome of grace and
abundance. Her presence brings forth an aura of prosperity and material
well-being, while her loving gaze towards Lord Vishnu reflects their eternal
bond of harmony and affection.
Divine Abode of Prosperity and Peace
Invite the benevolent presence of Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi into your sacred space with this exquisite gold-plated brass idol. Depicting the divine couple in a serene and majestic tableau, this statue captures a moment of profound grace and eternal love. Lord Vishnu, the preserver of the universe, is shown reclining on the coils of the divine serpent Shesha, also known as Adi Shesha, the king of all Nagas. Shesha's multiple hoods form a protective canopy over Vishnu, symbolizing the cosmic slumber from which Vishnu dreams the universe into existence. This imagery is deeply rooted in Hindu cosmology, representing the cyclical nature of creation, preservation, and destruction, with Vishnu as the ultimate divine consciousness.

The Power Couple of Hindu Mythology: Vishnu and Lakshmi
Lakshmi, as we all know, is the Goddess of fortune/wealth and is
a highly revered deity in India. She is especially worshiped in
the festival of Diwali which brings auspiciousness into our
lives. But what is her connection with Lord Vishnu? Our Vedic
scriptures mention that Goddess Lakshmi is the eternal consort
of Lord Vishnu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. She is His
internal energy or potency and is always engaged in His
transcendental loving service. Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi
never separate from each other. In the Vaishnava Sampradaya and
as described in the Vedas and Puranas, Vishnu and Lakshmi
together are the Supreme Absolute Truth. The relationship
between them is not mundane but is completely on the spiritual
platform, above and beyond the three modes of material nature
(Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas).
Is it good to keep Vishnu Lakshmi idol at home?
As mentioned above, it is the injunction of the Shastras
(scriptures) that there is no truth superior to Vishnu and
Lakshmi. It is advised by all the Acharyas to take the shelter
of Shri Vishnu in all circumstances and depend on His mercy.
We see many people worshiping Lakshmi Devi alone in their homes.
But if you are willing to walk the path of Bhakti, this is not
recommended. Lakshmi Devi is an obedient wife of Lord Vishnu.
She never leaves His lotus feet and she never goes to the place
where Lord Vishnu is not being worshiped. Therefore, the Vedic
scriptures consider those people who engage in the loving
service of Vishnu and Lakshmi as the most intelligent. Thus, it
is very auspicious to install the deities of Shri Vishnu and
Lakshmi Devi at home and worship Them regularly. All good
fortune follows when you please Goddess Lakshmi and She is only
pleased when we worship Lord Vishnu with faith and devotion.
Which Avatar of Vishnu is very powerful?
Lord Vishnu is the cause of all causes and He expands Himself
into many forms to fulfill certain purposes. The main purpose of
His assuming different forms is to reciprocate the loving
exchanges with His devotees. He never fails to protect His
devotees from great difficulties. One of the most powerful forms
of Lord Vishnu is the “Narasimha” Avatar, the half-man and
half-lion form. He appeared from a stone pillar to protect His
five-year-old devotee Prahlad from the ghastly attacks of his
demoniac father Hiranyakashipu. In this incarnation, the Lord
looks ferocious but to His devotees, it is equally beautiful as
His original four-handed form. The devotees of Lord Narasimha
always remember Him in their minds and experience pure bliss.
