S'rî Sukta- God appears in the form of S'rî Vishnu to uphold and protect the world. All action by Lord Vishnu is performed by His S'akti Lakshmî. She is the mother aspect of creation and the nourisher of the three worlds. Her description appears in the S'rî Sukta, where she is glorified. In reality, there is no difference between Lord Vishnu (the one who holds the power of action) and Lakshmî (His S'akti who actually performs the action). Lakshmî is then the presiding deity of all Divine manifestation.
S'rî Chakra - The S'rî Cakra is the vehicle of the jiva granted to it when it broke away from S'iva to explore individual life. The glory of the S'rî Cakra is that it is the only connection the jiva has to its source and goal in S'iva. It is like a space ship within which the jiva rides and maintains its individual existence while lost in the vastness of the universe.
