Saraswati

Today, 26 January 2023, marks the celebration of Saraswati.
 
Saraswati is the Hindu goddess of knowledge, music, arts, science and technology, speech, wisdom, and learning. Some people worship Saraswati to gain enlightenment or simply to get rid of lethargy, sluggishness, and ignorance.
 
The word saraswati is from a Sanskrit root saras (pooling water; or, sometimes translated as speech).
