Saraswati Namastubhyam
Goddess Saraswati, the divine consort of
Lord Brahma, is believed to be the custodian of art and education. Seated gracefully on a lotus flower, She is
believed to be one who bestows intellect and knowledge. She holds the musical instrument Veena which
is said to be a symbol of various forms of art.
“Saraswati Namastubhyam” is a prayer that pays tribute to Her
glory. While reciting the shloka, one
offers obeisance to the Goddess and seeks knowledge and success in all
endeavours. The verses of the shloka
describe Her as the one who showers blessings and grants all the wishes of
devotees.
