Lord Vishnu took the form of Kurma or tortoise and a mountain was placed on the back of the tortoise as the churning pole. Vasuki, the serpent was made as a rope to churn the ocean. Several divine objects emerged from the ocean. Among them the Goddess Lakshmi also emerged. She is believed to have existed always. She manifested into a form through Goddess Lakshmi.
