Lakshmi in Sanskrit is derived from the root word laks and laksa, meaning to perceive, observe, know and understand & goal, aim and objective respectively. These roots give Lakshmi the symbolism to know and understand your goal. A related term is laksana, which means sign, target, aim, symbol, attribute, quality, lucky mark and auspicious opportunity. She is either sitting or standing on a lotus and typically carrying a lotus in one or two hands. The lotus symbolically means knowledge, self-realization and liberation. It represents reality, consciousness and karma (work, deed). The lotus flower which blooms in clean or dirty water, also symbolizes purity and fertility and abundance, regardless of the good or bad circumstances/surroundings in which it is grows. It is a reminder that good and prosperity can bloom and not be affected by evil in one's surroundings. She is shown with two elephants spraying water on Her and occasionally with an owl. Elephants symbolize watering down the past memories to come in the present moment and the owl serves as a symbolic reminder to refrain from blindness and greed after knowledge and wealth has been acquired.
