Padma Purana
Dhigi-dashi, Sriyamati, fickle-minded, devoid of the desire for good deeds. This is clearly established in the mind. O people, become possessors of the wealth of penance, become radiant with the brilliance of penance. ||43||
Thus ends the 76th chapter of the Padma Purana, known as the "Ravana-vadha" (killing of Ravana), narrated by the Acharya Ravishena. ||76||
Ravana enjoyed Lakshmi, but due to the destruction of his virtuous deeds, he met this fate. ||42|| Therefore, this Lakshmi, who is extremely fickle and devoid of hope for attaining virtue, is to be condemned. O noble people! Contemplate this in your minds and become possessors of the wealth of penance, become radiant with the brilliance of penance. ||43|| Thus ends the 76th chapter of the Padma Purana, known as the "Ravana-vadha" (killing of Ravana), narrated by the Acharya Ravishena. ||76||
