In the various depictions of Saraswati, such as statues and paintings, She holds the Vedas, symbolizing that She is the source of all teaching and the guru tattva (the principle of guru that flows through all sincere teachers and gurus). Their meaning relates directly to the voice, which is the primary instrument in the human body that can express sound, music and speech-including the wisdom and mantras uttered by the gurus and sages. Her more ancient names, Vani or Vaak, can be found in the earliest Vedic scriptures. Song and dance are important on this day. A joyous day indeed for the Goddess of creation and art! Part of the ritual offerings on this day are items of learning and skill, such as tools, books and instruments. This day is also Vasant Panchami, which is celebrated as the first day of Spring in India. Her lunar day of worship ( Saraswati Puja) takes place sometime during January or February (February 16th in 2021). She is prayed to for knowledge of the Self, purity, artistic expression, scientific knowledge, and the spiritual receptivity necessary to learn from the guru. The modern-day clash of art and science does not exist where the understanding of Divine Mother’s creative principle is present.
Her name refers to the One who is like a flowing river of Self-knowledge. She is worshiped not only by yogis and sadhus but also by musicians, dancers and scholars. Among Her many qualities and manifestations, She is the source of all knowledge, science and art. Goddess Saraswati is a manifestation of Adhya Shakti, the divine feminine power of all creation, affectionately viewed by Her devotees as Divine Mother.
