अहमेव परा शक्तिः परस्य ब्रह्मणः प्रिया। शक्तिशक्तिमतोर्भेदो नास्ति मे परमात्मनः॥
Ahameva parā śaktiḥ parasya brahmaṇaḥ priyā, śaktiśaktimator bhedo nāsti me paramātmanaḥ.

Lakshmi Tantra 44.2–3
श्रियः पतिः श्रीमान् श्रीनिवासः। नित्यं श्रिया सह जगतां पतिः। मोक्षे च मुक्तेः प्रदायिका श्रीः॥
Śriyaḥ patiḥ śrīmān śrīnivāsaḥ, nityaṃ śriyā saha jagatāṃ patiḥ, mokṣe ca mukteḥ pradāyikā śrīḥ.
He is the Lord of Sri, ever resplendent, the abode of Sri. He is the Lord of the worlds, eternally accompanied by Sri. In liberation too, Sri is the granter of mukti.
