Saraswati, also invoked as Vagadevi, Vagisvari or Bhariti etc., is worshipped in India as the goddess of learning and revered as one of the sacred streams. It is for such reasons that she is also identified as the celestial river of heaven. She represents music and all arts and culture. She is hence seen in her iconography playing on a lyre with two of her four hands. In her other hands she carries a rosary and a book. She rides a swan, known for its purity and sacred origin. Ganesha, the lord of learning and Karttikeya, Parvati's other son, known for devotion, intelligence and service, usually form part of Saraswati iconography. She has been painted here as one emerging from the ocean and rising into sky. \n\n\nSaraswati\n\n \nSaraswati \n\nSaraswati, goddess of knowledge \nGod of learning, the arts, and rivers \nDevanagari: सरस्वती \nSanskrit Transliteration: Sarasvatī \nAffiliation: Devi \nConsort: Brahmā \nMount: swan, peacock \n \nFor the Vedic river, see Saraswati River. \nSaraswati (Sanskrit सरस्वती sarasvatī) is the first of the three great goddesses of Hinduism, the other two being Lakshmi and Durga.

She is the goddess of learning and the arts (e.g., music). She is also worshipped as the goddess of thoughts of truth and forgiveness. She is mentioned in the Rig Veda as well as in Puranic texts. It is likely that She originated as a river Goddess because her name in Sanskrit means "she who has lakes or pools". She is also referred to as Shonapunya, a Sanskrit word meaning ‘one purified of blood’.\n\nIn Vedanta, she is considered to be the feminine energy and knowledge aspect--shakti--of Brahman. As in ancient times, she is the goddess of knowledge, speech, poetry and music. Vedantins believe that only through the acquisition of knowledge does one reach the final path to moksha, or liberation from reincarnation. Only by worshiping Saraswati and continuously seeking true knowledge with one's complete attention can one attain the enlightenment necessary for moksha.\n\n\n[edit] Saraswati as a river\nMain article: Sarasvati River\nThe Rigvedic hymns dedicated to Saraswati mention her as a mighty river with creative, purifying, and nourishing properties. The best theory regarding the Vedic Sarasvati River states that it was formed by the present headwaters of the Yamuna River. In ancient times, after they had left the Himalayan foothills, the waters of the Yamuna turned west instead of east at Paonta Saheb. Next, the river flowed southwest across the Punjab and Haryana regions along the course of the modern Ghaggar-Hakra River in a pathway roughly parallel to the smaller Indus River to its west. The Sutlej flowed further east than it does today, and joined the Sarasvati somewhere near Bahawalpur. Eventually, the wide river empties into the Rann of Kutch, which at the time was a more integral part of the Arabian Sea.\n\nAlong the course of the Sarasvati, the Harappan Civilization developed. The earliest known examples of writing in India have been found in the ruined cities that line the now dry riverbed of the ancient waterway. Some have postulated that the goddess Saraswati gained her role as personified communication and the giver of knowledge due to the role of the Sarasvati River in the development of written language in ancient India.\n\nBetween 2000 B.C. and 1700 B.C., seismic activity caused the waters of the river's two main sources to change course. The Sutlej moved course westward and became a tributary of the Indus River. The Yamuna moved course eastward and bec

What's really remarkable about the Sri Yantra it is the visual expression of the sound "OM". It has been recorded electronically when monks chanted the "OM" and the Sri Yantra pattern emerged and was recorded on an electronic transmitter. You can see the photograph here: http://www.spiritandflesh.net/image_Sri_Yantra_Hindu_Spirituality.htm\n\nThe Sri Yantra is the symbol of the Formless Goddess. Since the "OM" sound is the seed of creation, so it is natural to understand that the Divine Mother has the seeds of creation.\n\nThey use these symbols as an object of meditation. They are used to focus on the "formless" aspect of God and/or Goddesses. Most of us prefer to focus on the forms such as: Buddha, Krishna, Kali, Ganesha, etc.\n\nSome prefer to focus on the formless aspects and would use these yantras. They all have meanings within their sacred geometric shapes. You can find some sites that explain the meanings of each shape.\n\nIt's a pretty cool thing to learn about. I've just recently learnt somethings about them.

ok i'm going to take a wild guess that this refers to the words of the Buddha one time when he was staying in the Jeta Grove in the town of Sravasti.\n\nto take another leap i'd say his brother anada would be the actual author.\n\ni'll keep a watch on this page to see what develoes.  the problem is your translation does not fit normal sanskrit rules.  residing in the wisdom of ekottara?\n\ni believe the buddha spoke of ekottara at sravasti, shouldn't that mean it is in dharmmapada?\n\n>>Edit>> on the other hand after a day to think about it,  maybe it was Patanjali, the Yoga Sutras, which almost makes more sense.

One day Subhuti, in a mood of sublime emptiness, was sitting under a tree. Flowers began to fall about him.\n\n"We are praising you for your discourse on emptiness," the gods whispered to him.\n\n"But I have not spoken of emptiness," said Subhuti.\n\n"You have not spoken of emptiness, we have not heard emptiness," responded the gods. "This is the true emptiness." And blossoms showered upon Subhuti as rain.

Remember Eckankar? Remember the "protection" pray?\nBeloved I AM presence bright \nAround me seal your tube of light.\nFrom ascended master flame\nCalled for now in God's own name.\nLet it keep my temple free from all discord sent to me\nI AM calling forth violet fire to blaze and transmute all desire, keeping on in freedom's name till \nI AM one with the violet flame.\n\nAs in many religions and faiths there were "holes" in Eckankar and I moved on, but this prayer is stuck in my memory.
