In the scriptural development of the concept, we come across different myths about the origin of Mahalakshmi. She is variously described as the daughter of Daksha-Prajapati, the daughter of Bhrgu, and as an emanation from Sati, the consort of Siva. While some Puranas describe her as the wife of Dharma, the most popular interpretation is that of Lakshmi as the consort of Vishnu.
