Fire: Chapel of Lakshmi

The Chapel of Lakshmi is dedicated to the element of fire. It is located in the northeastern area of the Temple of Isis. This chapel is also called the Chapel of Asia or the Hindu Chapel. Here is a beautiful shrine shared by Lakshmi and Kwan Yin. There is an altar to Tara and representations of Ganesh, Shiva and Parvati.
