Saraswati Devi - Panchaloha

Saraswati-devi is an avatar of the Divine Mother. She is so merciful. Her vahana is a swan which symbolises the purity of the mind. She is holding the knowledge in Her hand to remove ignorance and to perceive the Lord everywhere. Through Her blessing, She clears the mind and grants the knowledge to understand things properly.

Saraswati-devi is known as the goddess of music, art, wisdom, knowledge and learning. She is one of the holy trinity of goddesses, Lakshmi-Saraswati-Parvati, and is the eternal consort of Lord Brahma.

''She is holding a veena in Her hand. In one arm She is holding the scriptures, the other one is holding the mala. She is sitting on a lotus and Her vahana is a swan. The swan symbolises the purity of the mind which is devoid of ignorance. So, through Her blessing, She is holding knowledge in Her hand, and through knowledge your ignorance is removed. The sound is a cosmic sound which elevates you. When you go in spirituality, you hear the cosmic sound of om where everything becomes one, everything. So, it’s only through the sound of om that one can rise and perceive the Lord everywhere. And how you will do that is only through japam, by chanting of His Divine Name. The mind gets cleared when the Name of the Lord takes its place there. Otherwise, one is always a slave to the mind and one is never free.'' Paramahamsa Sri Swami Vishwananda.
