Explanation of Laxmi Ashtakam
We all probably worshiped Mahakali Mahalakshmi Maha Saraswati for nine days. Dividing into three three days for each goddess in Navratri celebration. Mahalakshmi Ashtakam means that the incarnation of Mahalakshmi is the Samharam (killing) of Mahishasura evil king. The Mahalakshmi Ashtakam is the epitome of that pride it has eight slogans.
“Namastestu mahamaye sripide sura pujite sangu chakra katha haste mahalakshmi namostude”
The last line of the slogan Mahalakshmi Namosthude to you till the end Namaskaram Maha Maya Soropini.Maha Maya Soropini is not born like others in nature. She came out of the energy of lord shiva and lord vishnu when all devtas and brahma went to lord vishnu and shiva and prayed to them to save all human nature and devtas from Mahishasura evil king.
