Sita Sundari Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 Su devi and Bhu devi are expansions of MahaLaxmi and Sarasvati, I am not sure if Sri devi and Su devi are the same but I think so. They are often depicted on each side of Lord Visnu. The devi's Su and Bhu accompany Lord Jagannath in the form of Madhava Mohan on his ceremonial outings from His divine abode Jagannath Mandir. At the time of Chandan Yatra the engage in a mystical boating Lila which is part of the process of bringing down the monsoon's and ensuring the fertility and future well being of life for all on earth. Bhu devi is a form of Sarasvati and a very ancient goddess worshipped in Bengal and Orissa as the foundation of live and the earth mother her self, while She ensures the evolution of mankind through prayer, learning and the formation and correct conduct of language needed to officiate with the Gods, Su devi like Mahalaxmi presides over the propagation, growth and harvest of food grains and their distribution. They have many other internal activities but these are the ones know in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narayan.divya88 Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 Sri devi and Bhoo devi are two aspects of Lakshmi... Sri devi represents the material aspect of life (richness and prosperity in terms of material wealth), hence is associated with Sriman Narayana (hence Vishnu is also known as Srinivasa), whereas Bhoo Devi represents the fertility aspect of life (richness and prosperity in terms of food and family), and is associated with Lord Varaha...btw, Bhoo Devi's daughter is none other than Sita (another incarnation of Lakshmi, who is also the consort of Ram, an incarnation of Vishnu) Would you consider Lord Varaha as any different from Sriman Narayana?? Padmavati is a form of Lakshmi, who is the consort of Lord Venkateswara (Lord Vishnu Himself) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
