Saraswati
Significance Of Saraswati:-
As the goddess of knowledge, literature, music, and the arts, Saraswati is said to be the mother of the Vedas, the four holy books of Hinduism. She is also associated with intelligence, creativity, education, and enlightenment.
- Saraswati is usually pictured dressed in white to symbolize pure illumination.
- She rides a swan or a peacock, and usually is shown with four hands: in one she holds a book; in another she holds prayer beads (because she is the source of spiritual knowledge) her other two hands hold a Veena- this is a sitar-like musical instrument.
Goddess Saraswati is the consort of Lord Brahma, the creator. Dressed in white (that symbolises serenity), the Mother Goddess is hailed as the Goddess of learning, fine arts and music. The pictorial depiction of the Goddess shows her with four hands. She holds the Vedas in one of her left hands and a japmala (rosary) or a peacock feather in one of the right hands. Seated on a full-bloomed white lotus, Goddess Saraswati is seen playing the musical instrument Veena.
The Vedas represent knowledge, while the peacock feather symbolises a pen and the japmala denotes the power to stay focused in life. These emphasise on the importance of learning while the Veena signifies music and arts.
Goddess Saraswati is worshipped to attain knowledge and wisdom. In a nutshell, by praying or imbibing the qualities of Devi Saraswati, one can remove ignorance and darkness from his or her life. Moreover, her vehicle, a Swan, possesses the power to distinguish between the good and the evil. Saraswati is especially revered by students and teachers.
