"या देवी सर्वभूतेषु शक्तिरूपेण संस्थिता।
नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः॥
"Salutations again and again to the Divine Mother, who dwells within every living being as Shakti, the eternal source of strength, compassion and divine grace."

Among the many names of Lakshmi, Ambabai is remembered not only for abundance, but for presence. Devotees have long carried Her image as a reminder that the Divine Mother never abandons those who seek Her with faith. That of the silent certainty that the Divine Mother never leaves those who place their faith in Her. Through generations, Her presence has come to embody courage, compassion and unwavering grace.
