- Translation of the 3-line text printed on the back in Thai:
The first, second and third lines are identical and translate as:
"Om Lakshmi, may the feminine be loving and possess great wealth" - Lakshmi (Sanskrit for luck, beauty, wealth) is the Hindu goddess of luck, love, fertility, prosperity, health and beauty, not only the giver of wealth, but also of spiritual well-being, harmony, abundance and excess, protector of plants.
- She is the Shakti, the preserving power of Vishnu, and his wife. For the Srivaishnavas, she is the mediator between Vishnu and the people, who intercedes for her followers with her husband.
- In the Pancatantras, she and not Vishnu is the object of the highest veneration. There the god carries out the orders of the goddess, who appears as the actual creator of the universe.
- She is consistently associated with positive qualities and is considered a kind and merciful goddess.
