The Divine Presence of Sarasvati on Basant Panchami

Quotes from The Book — The Stories Behind The Poses

Today is Basant Panchami, a day dedicated to Goddess Sarasvati. When she blesses you with her blessings and once her presence touches your thoughts, there’s no turning back. My journey with her began later in life, but now that I feel her presence, I know I am nothing without her blessings. She is the goddess of art, music, and knowledge — present in the alphabets, the colors, and in the very rhythm of poetry.
