[edit] About

In Hindu mythology Sarasvati (or Saraswati) is one of the three goddesses that make up the female counterpart of the Hindu Triad (Trimurti), the other two being Lakshmi and Durga. She is the consort of Brahma and the goddess of knowledge, music, arts and other liberal arts. She is usually depicted with eight arms and is said to have created the first human, Manu, with Brahma.

According to the Brahma Vaivarta Purana she was originally one of the three wives of Vishnu, but the three were always arguing with each other. Eventully Vishnu decided to keep only one wife and chose Lakshmi, giving Ganga to Shiva and Sarasvati to Brahma.
