About Saraswati

Saraswati is the Hindu goddess of knowledge and learning, music and the arts and therefore a favourite among school children, academics and artists of all kinds. She is one of the trinity of Hindu goddesses (Tridevi) alongside Lakshmi and Parvati.

Saraswati is depicted seated on a stylised (white) lotus flower, symbolising light, knowledge and truth. Although she is sometimes shown with four arms, here she is in her two-armed form playing her veena, an ancient stringed instrument that predates the more modern sitar.
