Educational Q&A
Prosperity and sovereignty (Lakṣmī/Rājalakṣmī) are portrayed as inseparable from rightful divine order: when authority is aligned with auspicious power and purity, it naturally becomes an object of reverent attention. The verse also highlights the ethical idea that sacredness and right arrangement attract worthy assembly and support.
Śakra describes a scene where the gods gather in a supremely pure, much-desired place to behold Indra seated with Lakṣmī—an image of Indra’s established rule and auspicious majesty, prompting a collective divine audience (darśana).
