Saraswati is the goddess of knowledge, music, art and speech — the river of wisdom that flows through every learner. Dressed in white, seated upon a lotus, she holds the veena whose music is the harmony of all learning.
"She gives not gold but something greater — the light by which all other gifts are understood."
Consort of Brahma the creator, she is honoured by students, artists and seekers on Vasant Panchami. To name a daughter Saraswati is to wish her a life rich in wisdom, creativity and graceful speech.
