Lakshmi, Goddess of Money
86"This is the Money Goddess,
Lakshmi. Pass it to 6 of your good friends
or family and be rich in 4 Days.
Pass it to 12 of your good friends or family and
be rich in 2 Days.
I am not joking. You will find an unexpected windfall. If you delete it, you
will never know!"
"SHE WORKS- SHE REALLY WORKS"
“Look, Micky Dee! Now we can ALL be rich!" Bob
Lakshmi
Dear Bob, in regards to Lakshmi:
This is just a bit of humor. If you practice the Golden Rule-I am for your spirituality. This is our greatest commandment- "to love one another."
I really mean no disrespect to anyone's belief. I will love the Hindu as anyone. Thanks
I'm sorry Bob. I have just
one bed and Lakshmi has too many arms.
I'm sure I would not rest very well although she appears to be very
nice.
It’s hard for me to believe in a God, gods, or goddesses wearing gold helmets.
Also, after a while, seeing the bottoms of the irises and white below the irises all the time would bother me.
I'm sure that she could clean up the house with no problem.
I wonder if she uses all twenty fingers when she types.
I’m certain I could get her a job at Waffle House.
This message says to pass
it to 12 of your good friends or family and be
rich in 2 Days. 12 good friends? Aren’t we optimistic?
This message says to pass it on to 6 good friends or family and be rich
in 4 days. Well, I don't have six friends and I'm sure that if I had six
friends previously that I would no longer have six close friends or family.
Most of my friends believe
in our political process more than a God, gods, or goddesses. Their time is taken up
with arguing about previous elections and the next election. I guess these folks
may as well believe in a goddess wearing gold and playing in gold.
If you have a god of politics, by all means, send that.
If you have a god of football, basketball, golf, tennis, or other
sports, by all means send a god for sports or each individual sport.
I'm sure that football would require two different gods what with
soccer being called football as well as football being called football.
If you have a God of materialism pass that one on.
Some other ideas may be: god of the mall, god of the automobile, god of petroleum, god of my mirror, god of facebook, god of hubpages, god of twitter, etc., etc.
If there is a god of "driving down the highways like an idiot", please send.
If the god of cycling should look like Eddy or Lance, I will pass on that one as well.
You say that "You will find an unexpected windfall."
Will I see this during hurricane season and should I warn others to
anchor their trailers down tighter?
I appreciate your wonderful gift and promise of more money but,
I'm afraid I must pass on this extra money thing. I just don't think
the IRS will understand.
Thanks anyway, MD

Tantrum- it's so nice to see you. You're looking very happy too, you two. Thanks for stopping by.
ha ha! this was good...! lol..'God of facebook and sports' more like it, yes! A unique idea for a hub! Really enjoyed it!
Thank you Myownworld. You are so nice to stop and visit. Thank you!
haha, you nailed the gold on the helmet with your list of wannebe gods, Micky! Yust a little irreverence goes a long veh... The god of lefse could titillate my taste buds about now. The god of beer is making tacos even as I type...
Okay, I had to reread this and pull out a few especially laugh generating lines:
I wonder if she uses all twenty fingers when she types.
I’m certain I could get her a job at Waffle House.
"You will find an unexpected windfall."
Will I see this during hurricane season and should I warn others to anchor their trailers down tighter?
Truth be told, I do like all of these Hindu gods and goddesses. They help me appreciate all aspects of our amazing world. But I also love to laugh and this one really hit at a good time. Thanks so much.
nice one hehe, chain email are just crazy as it is. Hope nobdy will fall for it, waste of time, How are you, TC, Maita
Ha ha I thought this was going to be serious! brilliant! cheers nell
I like yust a little irreverence with my lefse- it does go a long veh. Too many gods are just too hard to keep up with. I'll just stick to the One. I certainly appreciate other cultures and Gandhi holds a special place in my heart. I would have to go to a building supply store for knee pads!
Can't fool you huh Prettydarkhorse/ You're pretty and smart- pretty smart!
Cheers Nell Rose is a Rose is a Rose. By any other name you would still smell as sweet!
Funnneeeeeeeeee Micky Dee!
I wish I had all of her hands-I could make a lot of drinks and serve a lot of food..hhehehehe..waffle house...I sure could have used her golden helmet today too--bad hair day for me!
I always get these things-drives me crazy...crazier. ;)
How many times should we have been wearing a helmet? And it could be a golden helmet. Ah, to serve man with four arms and a golden helmet! ("To Serve Man"- it's a cook book!- The Twilight Zone). Thanks Ghost Whisper
The article provides total bliss by providing the awesome photographs of Goddess Lakshmi. The goddess Lakshmi with golden hat and so many arms is sparklingly beautiful. The contents are well written and meticulously formatted. Thanks a lot for providing so fruitful information. I wish goddess Lakshmi blesses each and every individual on this planed wholeheartedly.
Thanks Stephen. The Hindus have a few Gods and I certainly don't wish to step on their toes. I'm not looking for money or gold but I would act responsibly if some should fall on me. Thanks for stopping by.
I totally LOVE this hub. The sarcastic wit is priceless!
You are so kind Brenda. Thank you.
Very insightful and funny too. And a cyclist to boot. Thanks for an awesome hub. I appreciate your irreverent humor.
Thank you Deborah. You're very kind. I appreciate your stopping by.
that was a great hub to start off my tuesday!! needed a great laugh, I will be sure to read your hubs!!Thanks
Thank you Darrin. I am glad you enjoyed it. I'll come check you out!
When It comes to the goddess of money I must be an Atheist,
cause she's spent little of her blessings on me. Seems to me if you've got four hands you could lend one to an earthly poet who is sometimes a starving artist.~~~Great Hub ~~~MFB III
I heard God loves us because He made so many of us. He loves us bu just doesn't give us stuff. Of course I've seen people with the most stuff and most seem to be jackasses. Thanks MFB.
Funny, Micky :-)
Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you very much msorensson. I do appreciate you. Thanks!
i think godess lakshmi must be busy these days..because there is a lot off trouble going around in the world these days..she must have been running out of her schedule...lol..
Yo Shirishkoid! She must be busy. We need her don't we? Thank you Ma'am!
Hi! Micky Dee
Such useless chain mail efforts should no doubt be condemned outright and made fun of.
But just one point - I am a Hindu. Hindus at least do not get offended when people try to make fun of their gods and goddesses. If some custom is worth making fun we ourselves are the ones who enjoy making fun of them. Gods and Goddesses in Hindu (Indian) customs have different meaning then what generally you may attribute them to be. People generally go by sentiment "Gods and Goddesses help you only if you are first ready to help yourself by working efficiently and help others". In this case any way your basic aim is to make fun of chain mails.
But just for Psychological test, I assume most people who are writing comments here are Christians. I get hundreds of similar chain mails about Christian sentiments regularly. Some Christian enthusiast even visit your home often and try to convert you with sentences like "There is only one god and I will prove it to you" "Your gods and godesses are no good, it is evil" etc. (fortunately Hindus are spared this trouble, there is nothing like conversion etc. to Hindus, you are a Hindu just when you want to be and not just when you do not want to be). But still if I have to make criticism, I will first select a Hindu such mail or custom and not a Christian one. One should first be ready to criticize your own group before you throw tantrums at others.
I wonder how many here might be ready to do similar action if it relates to some Christian such mail or funny conversion efforts. At least I see a lot less of that.
For that matter I think most will be far away from criticizing any Muslim such thing because of fear of getting hurt or killed in violence generated by them even for very trivial issues (there are of course exceptionally courageous people also http://hubpages.com/hub/Everybody-Draw-Mohammed-Da )
Yo Soumyasrajan! Thank you for your comment! I want to certainly say that if this were an offense to anyone I am very sorry. It certainly is not to offend a Hindu! I am absolutely a fan and follower, in a sense, of Gandhi! When I feel very, very sad, I might pull out the Viceo of Gandhi's life and view it! And you must know - that's a lot of viewing!
This is, mostly a poke at the forwarding of emails and the supposition that my "lot" will be improved by "doing this"- this forwarding.
But also- I do not want any increase of wealth.
If I am to "want" - let me want a long and peaceful life for my child and your child.
If I am to "want" - let me want medical treatment for every person that lives.
I will want a safe environment for everybody.
I do wish to have a bit of fun. I'm Scotch-Irish! No- I'm not Scots-Irish! I'm mostly Irish but my ancestors drank a lot of Scotch whiskey!
I want to be a great cyclist but my ancestors were great potato farmers!
THIS HUB IS CERTAINLY NOT MEANT TO OFFEND ANY GOD!
IS THERE ONE TRUE GOD?
THE ONLY GOD THAT CAN MATTER TO MICKY DEE IS THE BENEVOLENT GOD THAT TELLS US ALL TO LOVE OUR NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF.
ALL OTHERS AND ALL OTHER CLUBS, POLITICAL PARTIES, ETC., ETC. ARE CULTS!
We are to love our neighbor as ourselves.
If Christians cannot do this- they're in a cult!
If Muslims cannot do this- they are in a cult.
And etc.
And that's just exactly THE WAY IT IS!
The Golden Rule is THE LAW above all laws!
Yo Soumyasrajan! Sorry if I got carried away. Your comment was great1 I do appreciate it and think nothing this "hub within a hub" I'm writing right now.
Thank you for stopping by and I'll get over your way. I went to the hub you left! Some are bad, or terrible and funny at the same time- to somebody! Thanks!
I quite agree with you. I understood your sentiment in the article and enjoyed it Micky Dee! It is interesting via these hubs and comments, I feel I know you now well. My comment was not so much directed at you (or any body in particular), I think you must have also understood it. Of course I knew that you did not mean offense to any one human or god or goddesses. Generally a fun does not have offense as an objective.
In this case menace of these spam mails is already too much for any one.
Idea of my comment was also just to make fun of certain tendencies.
God bless you Soumyasrajan! I'm in your corner!
LOL...another great, funny hub!
Chain sms is a great nuisance but for highlighting that, using a Hindu God as depiction is uncalled for!! Though you have explained your point earlier to soumyasrajan, it still hurts!! I am not much of a believer but that doesnt stop me from feeling with the sentiments I was born with!!
Thank you Magnoliazz! I appreciate you.Thank you Ma'am!
I'm sorry if you feel that your toes are stepped on Dreamreachout. I was sent the email that I was to forward, which is a joke in itself.
I have one God and this God I have, has laughed at irreverence about Him that was committed to lighten the hearts of men. My God is only one God but He laughs at Mel Brooks joking about God. I talk to my God like no other person and like every person.
I certainly mean no disrespect for this God of yours or any God. What could I do to God? How can I hurt God?
Whatever God you choose that helps you to adhere to the Golden Rule is the one you should stick with. Other folks of other religions, Christianity, Catholicism, Muslim, whatever may have an issue with you but I cannot.
I am of the religion of the Golden Rule! That's all I need to know for a while! Until there is a revival and adherence to the Golden Rule, there is no need for me to learn another scripture of your Book or anyone else's book.
If I am correct, and I have no idea, -you have many Gods. With so many, how can I not offend one of them?
Also- this hub is not to offend anyone! But shouldn't this be between your God and me?
What should you have to do with it?
This was a true report- first of all -it was sent to me. I did not go out of my way to blaspheme anyone or God!
I'm told that you have many Gods?
If you will direct me - maybe we can pray to the God of the Sense of Humor!
Let me tell you a Catholic joke sometime! There was a preacher in a boat with this rabbi...
Sarah's grandson is playing in the water, while she is standing on the beach not wanting to get her feet wet, when all of a sudden a huge wave appears from nowhere and crashes directly over the spot where the boy is in the ocean. The water recedes and the boy is no longer there. He simply vanished.
Sarah holds her hands to the sky and cries, "God, how could you? Have I not been a wonderful mother and grandmother? Have I not given to Bnai Brith and Haddasah? Have I not tried my very best to live a life that you would be proud of?"
Just then, another huge wave appears out of nowhere and crashes on the beach. As the water recedes, the boy is standing there, smiling, splashing around as if nothing had happened.
A loud voice booms from the sky, "I have returned your grandson. Are you satisfied?"
Sarah responded, "Well ... He WAS wearing a hat."
Einstein is walking through heaven one day, when St. Peter approaches him. "Albert, my friend." he says. "I have some pressing business with Jesus, and I was wondering if you might watch the gate for a few minutes." "Of course Peter," Einstein replies, "It would be my pleasure."
So Einstein takes over at the gate and as he is paging through the great book of souls, a man approaches the gate. "Welcome to Heaven." Einstein says, "I see here in the book that you are free to pass through the gates, but before you do, and if you don't mind my asking, what is your IQ?"
"I don't mind at all, Professor. My IQ is 200." The man replies. "Excellent," Einstein says, "Would you like to help me complete my grand unified field theory?" "Of course Professor, it would be an honor." "Good, but as you can see, I am watching the gate for St. Peter. If you would just wait inside, I'll be along in a few minutes."
The man passes into heaven, and presently a woman approaches the gates. Einstein greets her warmly, and in similar fashion, asks the woman her IQ. "Oh, I'm not sure, I never had it tested, but if I had to guess, I'd say around 180 or 190," She answers.
"Marvelous," Einstein beams. "Well, if you wouldn't mind, another gentleman and I are planning to work on my unfinished theories. If you would like to help, would you be so kind as to wait inside the gates for me, I'll be along in a few minutes." "That would be wonderful, Dr. Einstein." The woman smiles and enters the gates.
A few moments later, another man approaches the gate, and again Einstein greets the man, asking him his IQ. "Oh, probably 70 or 80." The man replies.
"Ahhh..." Einstein smiles. "How about those Denver Broncos?"
Hi! Micky Dee
Just to continue with your jokes here is one popular in India about Ganesha (the god with elephant head).
There is a festival of Ganesha in India celebrated every year during which people bring small statues of Ganesha and then after about 10 days the statues are immersed in sea or ponds.
Ganesha is the lord to whom you pray often in crisis to give you wisdom and auspiciousness etc.
Now joke is -- Once a boat started sinking in sea. The person in the boat started praying to Ganesha to save him. Well Ganesha told him "oh! I will not do that"
The man was surprised "Why?". Ganesha tells him "you immerse me in water every year, let me do at least once to you also?"
Yo Soumyasrajan! You did it! You cracked me up! Okay- here's one about a priest:
Brother John entered the 'Monastery of Silence' and the Chief Priest said, "Brother, this is a silent monastery, you are welcome here as long as you like, but you may not speak until I direct you to do so."
Brother John lived in the monastery for a full year before the Chief Priest said to him: "Brother John, you have been here a year now, you may speak two words."Brother John said, "Hard Bed."
"I'm sorry to hear that," the Chief Priest said. "We will get you a better bed."
The next year, Brother John was called by the Chief Priest. "You may now say another two words, Brother John." "Cold Food." said Brother John. The Chief Priest assured him that the food would be better in the future.
On his third anniversary at the monastery, the Chief Priest again called Brother John into his office. "Two words you may say today, Brother John."
"I Quit." said Brother John.
"It is probably for the best," said the Chief Priest. "All you have done since you got here is complain."
Ha! I am so late in founding this. Soooo funny! I found many of this kind of joke in my mailbox. Really annoying sometimes. And your jokes in comments are funny. Thanks Micky. Happy cycling!
I love you Freya. I'm glad you found it funny! God bless!
Hialrious, Micky. Thank you
Yo Dim! Thank you for reading.
I guess VIVEK and other Hindus have no humor. I tried to pray to the God of humor but she must be busy.
So the message above, VIVEK, was put there by a religious person? Well I have to tell you VIVEK if you're representing your religion- you aren't doing so well. You have as much pull as Billy Graham over me.
I put jokes in here concerning preachers or people of other faiths. So you come. You don't read. You can't see that this is lot about getting spam promising the world like politicians. So you want to make an enemy of someone you don't know. You want to come, avoid reading, avoid having a sense of humor. I'm not sure that the world needs people "towing the party line" or towing any religious line.
You show how wrong "religious pursuit" can be.
The LAW above any LAW that you currently know and adhere to is to love your neighbor as yourself.
I am a guy who got some preposterous stuff in the email. I wrote about it. So? You call me European? I am against every big business that you can come up wit. Republicans call me a liberal. Democrats call me right wing. I hate- you have no idea- hate these false parties that have taken over the world for families like the Rothchilds, ad nauseum.
But you. Well aren't you special? You can't/won't read. You have no sense of humor. You attack. Good for you! Have you done anything for your Goddess today?
I, on the other hand, wish your mother well and I hope you don't cross those lines you've suggested for me. I hope you find love. I hope your family prospers- for peace -for OUR world.
I hope MY God blesses you. I hope one of your Gods blesses you.
Well- of course unless you're Dick Cheney, George Bush, Bill Clinton, Condosleezy Rice, the Rothchilds, Idi Amin, Stalin, -can I stop here? I'm tired!
please i want to have that money from now . thank you
Johnstone! Me too Brother!
enjoyed your hub!!
Oh PMS(! I missed your post! God bless!
I agree with you :D well, almost totally:D aloha oe
Thank you Dear. We just want to treat all people right and laugh. God bless all of God's religions! God bless the Hindu people! God bless India! God bless Gandhi!
and God Bless You too! :D and a very good morning to you :D!
YO! *:)
Hey kids, don't mess with Lakshmi - she is one powerful sister in the Dianic magical community! I've seen her involked by master magicians in providing windfalls, housing, business deals & healing in more than one instance.
We certainly mean no disrespect to this Goddess. Money can be used for good. It can feed the hungry. Clothe the folks without. It can cure a lot of ills. So I certainly respect the Goddess of wealth. Does Congress know about Her? I'll bet you can find Her near some Bushes. God bless Lakshmi! God bless everyone Lakshima. Please!
Very nice, I share your sentiments and thank you for doing so in such a respectful manner. May each and every soul with a good heart bearing the best of intention be radically and abundantly blessed in all areas of life if they be those that will pay it forward and bless all those in earnest need around them. Peace and Love. :)
You know it Katie! God bless you Dear!
I read all of ur commends .You dont know who is lakshmi I am a strong devotee of goddess Lakshmi. I do poojas on important days for Lakshmi.I have some wonderful experience with her. If you believe her strongly she will be present near you to help u all ur journey. Pls mail me if you r ready to believe her. I will show you how to earn money, gold etc...abundandly.It is truth you believe it or not--mailkanilkumar@yahoo.com
Thank you Anil. I'm not on a journey for wealth at all. I am on a quest for truth. I want peace over happiness. God bless you. I hope Lakshmi is good to you. I want blue skies and birds, rain and puddles, wind and calm, flowers and trees, bicycles and nourishment,...God bless!
Have you heard of the bear, a Catholic priest, a Hindu Guru and a Taliban Mullah?
Read this joke here - http://www.romancatholicinfo.com/catholic-joke-a-c
That was funny James. You can't circumcise a bear. It's just bad luck! Thanks bud!
We all need a sense of humor to get through this life and thanks for the laughs. Up and funny!
God bless Peggy.
I have often wondered about that, and wondered if some people were really getting rich, you can find videos of these money Goddesses on you tube.I was thinking i people are getting rich off this I must have bad luck.
God bless you Pan. There are no riches here. But I'm speaking to the choir. "Good men know there's no profit in deceit. Revenge does not taste sweet." God bless you dear Pan.
LOL - Thanks Micky
God bless Neil.
I need wealth can these goddess help me.
I hope you are surrounded by what you truly need. May the true benevolent God bless you.
Micky Dee, you are making fun of LAXMI ? Hahahahaha thank god you dint make fun of her sister DURGA. If u made fun of durga . I am dam sure you will be in a hell . And now that you made fun of LAXMI . You will be a poorest peson in this world .go in church Ask your JESUS who created him
Hi shuham.
I am not of this world.
I certainly do not want wealth.
I have no problem with any of your gods.
I have no problem with benevolent gods.
I will not bow to any gods that lie, imprison, maim, enslave, shed blood, etc.
I have not made fun of "this god of which we speak".
If this or any other god does not have a sense of humor - I suggest that the god find one.
I am not here to make fun of a god.
It is the email projecting wealth out of the sky when "wealth" actually comes from the evil one.
I am for an equal, balanced, healthy world.
My belief of "wealth" is family, friends, clean air, clean water, nourishing food - LOVE FOR MY FELLOW MAN AND SISTERS of this realm.
Money?
Diamonds?
Gold?
Material wealth?
This ain't the Madonna show.
"Wealth" is family, friends, clean air, clean water, nourishing food - LOVE FOR MY FELLOW MAN AND SISTERS of this realm.
If this god or any god will deliver peace - the absence of war - a clean compassionate world where people take care of one another - sign me up.
I worship the benevolent God.
But I certainly do not want gold. money, WEALTH.
You take all my wealth.
God-speed!

Sometimes I receive one of these e-mails from a 'good' friend. Sometimes the e-mail say, that if you don't pass it, something terrible is going to happen to you. I always delete them. Still waiting for that 'horrible 'thing !Ha ha ! :)
