Here you'll find the lineup in the Lakshmi tent.
Lakshmi is the archetype of enchanting beauty, and beauty naturally comes with prosperity and happiness. That's why Lakshmi is also the widely beloved goddess of fortune.
She is depicted sitting or standing on a lotus with 4 hands. Usually with a lotus in one hand, distributing riches with another, with a third in the gesture "fear not" (Abhaya-Mudrā) and the fourth with the gesture of granting boons. Behind her, a pair of white elephants is often depicted, pouring cooling water.
Lakshmi's sound symbol is "śrīm", so the basic mantra is:
ॐ श्रीं लक्ष्म्यै नमः॥
Oṃ śrīṃ Lakṣmyai namaḥ ||
Om, bow to the fortune-granting Lakshmī.
Her dedicated verse:
नमस्तेऽतु महामाये श्रीपीठे सुरपूजिते।
शङ्खचक्रगदाहस्ते महालक्ष्मि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥
आद्यन्तरहिते देवि आद्यशक्ते महेश्वरि |
योगज्ञे योगसंभूते महालक्ष्मि नमोऽस्तु ते ||
पद्मासनस्थिते देवि परब्रह्मस्वरूपिणि |
परमेशि जगन्मातर्महालक्ष्मि नमोऽस्तु ते ||
