This finely handcrafted brass statue from Nepal features Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of wisdom, music, and learning, revered as the source of knowledge in all its forms. She is depicted seated in a poised and serene manner, playing the veena, a classical string instrument, symbolizing her mastery over the arts. In her upper hands, she holds a mala, representing devotion and prayer, and a copy of the Vedas, the sacred Hindu scriptures, signifying her role as the bestower of knowledge. Saraswati's foot gently rests on a lotus flower, a symbol of purity and enlightenment, further enhancing her divine presence.
Saraswati is often worshiped by students, musicians, and artists who seek her blessings for success in their intellectual and creative endeavors. The lotus base on which she is seated symbolizes spiritual growth and purity, as the lotus rises from the muddy waters to bloom into a beautiful flower. Her calm and peaceful expression invites one to meditate upon the deeper meanings of life, art, and knowledge.
This Saraswati statue is not only a beautiful piece of art but also a powerful symbol of spiritual and intellectual inspiration. It is ideal for placement in a home office, library, or meditation space, where it encourages focus, creativity, and a thirst for learning. The statue brings an atmosphere of peace, wisdom, and devotion, making it a meaningful addition to any home or spiritual sanctuary.

Saraswati the goddess of knowledge, who is praised by the wise, who is the wife of the creator, may she reside on the tip of my tongue.
Saraswati is the Hindu goddess of knowledge and the arts, embodies the wisdom of Devi. She is the river of consciousness that enlivens creation; she is the dawn-goddess whose rays dispel the darkness of ignorance. Without her there is only chaos and confusion. To realize her one must go beyond the pleasures of the senses and rejoice in the serenity of the spirit.
Saraswati wears neither jewels or paints herself with bright colors. The white sari she adorns reflects her essential purity, her rejection of all that is base and materialistic. She transcends the craving s of the flesh and rejoiced in the powers of the mind as the patron of pure wisdom. She embodies all that is pure and sublime in Nature.
The four Vedas, books of universal knowledge, were her offspring. Her mount, the swan, personifies pure knowledge and her herald, the peacock, is a symbol of the arts. Schools and libraries are her temples; books, pens, all tools of the artist and musical instruments are the items used in puja to the enlightening goddess of wisdom.
The Story of Saraswati Saving the World from Shiva's Third Eye and the Beast of Doom: Shiva was woken from his meditations and looked around to discover a world on the brink of corruption and being unsalvageable. Shiva decided it was time to wipe the slate clean. Shiva, the destroyer, opened his world destroying third eye attempting to destroy the three worlds. Out came a terrible fire that threatened all existence.
There was panic everywhere. Only Saraswati remained calm. "Shiva's fire burns only that which is impure and corrupt."
She took the form of a river and with her pure waters picked up the dreaded fire from Shiva's third eye. Within the folds of her water she carried the fire far away from the earth to the bottom of the sea where it transformed into a fire breathing mare called Badavagni - the beast of doom.
"So long as the world is pure and man wise, this terrible creature will remain on the bottom of the sea. When wisdom is abandoned and man corrupts the world, Badavagni will emerge and destroy the universe," foretold the wise goddess.
