Adishakti is the great goddess, she is the mother of Universe, she takes different forms of God and Goddess.
She's Mother of all souls. She's the one who is all Goddess. She's the one from whom Universe came into existence. Because of her, everything came into existence. She resides everywhere whatever we can see, hear, feel. She took different forms.
- Mata Mahalakshmi is Adishakti.
She's the supreme goddess. Because of her everything came into existence. She's the one who is shakti of Bhrama Vishnu Mahesh.
Oh primeval illusion, you are the egg of the universe, You are the one with form as well as one without form, You are the one who supports Shiva, Brahma and others, And your story is great, Oh Goddess who is with Vishnu. Brahma, Rudra and others and the Vedas Are not capable to describe your greatness, And how can I, who am a dull one describe.
From: Lakshmi Narayana Hrudayam
O Devi Who is Without Beginning (Aadi) and Without End (Anta), and Who is the Great Goddess representing the Primordial Shakti (Adi Shakti). To one who is the divine fire born of all Yoga (out of the Great Consciousness), to the one who is in the minds of all Yogis, I worship to thee, Sri Maha Lakshmi.
From: Sri Mahalakshmi Ashtakam
"All the Saktis that have emanated from Lakshmi are always pervading the entire Universe. They remain, under the command of Sri, as the cause. Therefore when Lakshmi, the Mother of the Universe and the beloved consort of Bhagavan Achyuta is pleased with some one, these Saktis themselves highly pleased, bestow prosperity which he desires.”

She called Dhruva her own son. She helped him a lot in his devotional path of lord Vishnu.

The cosmic divine energy called Shakti has its existence because of you (i.e, you are an embodiment of that energy as the cosmic Goddess) and your glory and rediance is as pure, brilliant and shining as the splendour of the Sun.”

From: Vilanka Ramayana.
“She is present inside as well as outside the cosmos/universe and is even beyond these locations (i.e., she is omnipresent, immanent, all-pervading, all-permeating and all-encompassing in this creation). Her form was almighty but calm and peaceful. It was so magical that all possible forms that exist in this creation could simultaneously seen in her single, individual form which is eternal, most ancient and Universal.
From: Canto 25, Adbhuta Ramayana)
The evil-minded roamer in he night went to Vaidehi. As soon as he saw her, he was struck by Manmatha's arrows. She was alone. The lord of the rakshasas uttered hymns to the brahman and addressed her in cultured words. She was supreme in the three worlds was like Shri without the lotus.
From: Valmiki Ramayana Aranya Kanda CE.
And you must recognise me (Sita) as the pristine, sublime “Nature"(essential element and cosmic, infinite creative energy) behind creation, substenance and annihilation. Indeed, I create this delusionary world in conjunction with him (Sri Ram) without any let-up or indolence (i.e, I do it diligently and constantly).

Because everyone knew at that time, there was many dangerous demons lived in forests. But she was fearless, she is eternal companion of Lord Ram, she gone along with him in forests.

“tatah sa procyate vipra hladiniti manishibhih tat-kala-koti-koty-amsa durgadyas tri-gunatmikah"
“The wise say that She is the pleasure potency of Lord Krishna. Durga and the other goddesses in the world of the three modes are a million-millionth part of one of Her expansions.” -SanatKumar Samhita.
Sri Narad tells to Srimati Radharani:—
“O Devi, You are the source of all that is specially pure and good. You are the source of the hladini, sandhini and samvit potencies and You are the Supreme Power and Supreme Knowledge. You give supreme bliss to Sri Bhagavan and even Brahma and Rudra (Shiva) cannot understand You. Your opulence is remarkable in every aspect. The best of yogis cannot reach You with their meditation. I feel all the divine shaktis are Your parts as You control various shaktis such as ichcha-shakti (will power), gyan-shakti (the power of knowledge) and kriya-shakti (the power of action). Swayam Bhagavân Sri Krishna, Who is the Supreme Personality, has countless majesty and They are also Your parts.”
From: Patal Khanda of Sri Pādma Purana.

From: Radha Sahasranama.
“You (Radha) are the one known as Sita in Mithila. Your shadow is Draupadi, the favourite spouse of the Pandavas, you also appear in the form of Mahalakshmi in Dvaraka and Rukmini as well. You are Sita of Rama and was abducted by Ravana. О chaste one, you appear in different forms in the universe and similarly, I also appear in different forms in the universe.” - Verses 99 - 101, Chapter CXXVI, Krishna Janma Khanda, Brahma Vaivarta Puran

Other Goddess are also her forms.
Lord Krisna said to Radha:- “You are Isvari, the mother of Mahavisnu, besides being Mulaprakrti. You have no form but you take to definite form out of your own rays.”
“You are the form of flame, are invisible and take to incarnation on earth for the benefit of your devotees. You take to many forms according to the convenience of the devotees. You are Mahalaksmi in Vaikuntha. You are Bharati in the sacred land of Bharata and the mother of all noble people. You are Sati and Parvati as well.”
“You are the chaste Tulasi Ganga and purifier of the universe, Savitri in Brahmaloka and you are a part of your own ray.”
“In the Goloka you are the great goddess of all the cowherds and cowherdesses. In your absence, I have become helpless and sometimes I feel totally helpless.”

- Mata Radha is an ideal woman for everyone. She teached bhakti-yog. How to be a devotee of Lord.
- Her breath, soul, whole life she surrendered to Lord Krishna. She only lived for Lord Krishna. Even a separation for few seconds made her ill. Without Krishna, she seemed like she's dead. Separation from Krishna was only hard thing for her. Separation for 1 second could make her die.
- Krishna used to play flute to call Radharani. And she can't control herself from going to Krishna if he played flute. The voice of Krishna's flute always attracted her towards lord Krishna.
- She never cared about society, what others would think. When she used to meet Krishna, other mohollo ki aunties used to criticize her and spread rumours about her everywhere. She knew that everyone was making fun of her. They're insulting her. Her mind was always fixed on Krishna, she never even cared what outside world are doing.
- She teached that, Love is the name of samarpan. Love is eternal. Which should be always selfless. In love, marriage is Not at all necessary. We don't need to “marry" in Love. Love is like an austerity. Just like a devotee's mind is always fixed on God, and they sacrifice their food, similarly A lover's mind is always fixed on his lover. They even sacrificed their food and everything, just like Gopis.
- She, who can not even bear the separation for one second, suffered the pain of separation for 100 years from Krishna. Her condition is beyond description.

Mata Rukmini is Adishakti supreme goddess. Shes Mother of all creation. She is the creator of all. She's supreme energy. From her, other creation came into existence.
The protector of Bhraminical Culture, The one who has compassion for all, The one for whom seeing feet of Hari is bliss, The one who has thousand parts, the one who had thousand eyes, the one who has thousand faces, and the one who nurtures aptly. The one who is golden-coloured, The one who is richly endowed with gold, the one who has thousands times of Divine Light from her. The one who has thousand noses, lotus. The one who lives in sun as his source of energy. She who herself is light, The one with exceeding intellect, the one who had gained control over her senses, She who gave ultimate relax to every soul (moksha), The one with massive appearance, The one who knows the difference between True and Untrue through study of treaties, The one who knows each and everything happening, She is cause, She is the one who makes Causes, She who is Ultimate, She is diligent, The one who holds bow, She who is supreme among all Arches, the one who is immense power, The energy source of all energies, The one who is superior even among superiors, She who is superior even more than superior, the vereable one, the one who is modest while speaking.
Rishi Suta said, This Rukmini Sahasranama Stotram, were heard by Krishna Dvaipayana while he was in meditation. In his Dhyan he presented this Sahasranama said by Narada by making Goddess Rukmini as Adhi Devi, Adhi Mata of the Mantra. She is the one who did Mantopdesh to VedVyasa. She is the potency of all potencies. She is Goddess from whom entire universe comes from. Complete energy of Vishnu comes from her, She is complete energy giver to Vishnu.

Nobody can describe them, they are beyond all.
