    1. Asbar din janki mata literally means
      this was the boon given by janki(sita) mata
      when shri maruti(hanuman) gave shri rama's ring to sita while she was in forest as a capitive in shri lanka she was pleased and happy and she gave him boon as the giver of 8 sidhhis and 9 nidhi's as mentioned above she was a form of lakshmi and indirectly as a form of adishakti
