Lakshmi the companion of Vishnu, the sustainer, is the Goddess of Wealth. She is represented in the Sri Meenakshi Temple as Padmavathi. Her place on the north wall is near Venkateshwara. Although we think of wealth first in terms of material wealth, She also bestows on Her devotees other types of wealth, including spiritual and intellectual wealth.
