Characteristically, Saraswati (also spelled Sarasvoti, Saraswoti and Sarasvati) is depicted as a graceful young woman seated on a peacock or a lotus with a bina (sitar-like instrument) in her lap, her head surrounded with the crescent of the moon.Originally worshipped as the personificaton of the River Sarasvoti in
northern India, she represented, of course fertility, abundance, and the life-giving flow
of water, hence her name, which means "She who flows." Later, she was
attributed with the invention of human speech and writing, then with all the arts and
knowledge. She is considered to be the patron goddess of writers and poets, and is
honored in libraries in India with gifts of incense, fruit and flowers.
