Saraswati mantra
Saraswati Worship
Saraswati, the goddess of knowledge and arts, represents the free flow of wisdom and consciousness. She is the mother of the Vedas, and chants to her, called the 'Saraswati Vandana' often begin and end Vedic lessons.
Saraswati is the daughter of Lord Shiva and Goddess Durga. It is believed that goddess Saraswati endows human beings with the powers of speech, wisdom and learning. She has four hands representing four aspects of human personality in learning: mind, intellect, alertness and ego. She has sacred scriptures in one hand and a lotus – the symbol of true knowledge – in the second.
With her other two hands she plays the music of love and life on a string instrument called the veena. She is dressed in white – the symbol of purity – and rides on a white swan – symbolizing Sattwa Guna or purity and discrimination. Saraswati is also a prominent figure in Buddhist iconography - the consort of Manjushri.
The learned and the erudite attach greater importance to the worship of goddess Saraswati. As a practice, only educated people worship her for knowledge and wisdom. They believe that only Saraswati can grant them 'moksha' - the final liberation of the soul.
Saraswati's birthday - Vasant Panchami - is a Hindu festival celebrated every year on the 5th day of the bright fortnight of the lunar month of Magha. Hindus celebrate this festival with great fervor in temples, homes and educational institutes alike.
The following popular 'pranam Mantra' or Sanskrit prayer, Saraswati devotees utter with utmost devotion eulogizes the goddess of Knowledge and arts:
Om Saraswati Mahabhagey, Vidye Kamala Lochaney
Viswarupey Vishalakshmi, Vidyam Dehi Namohastutey
Jaya Jaya Devi, Charachara Sharey, Kuchayuga Shobhita, Mukta Haarey
Vina Ranjita, Pustaka Hastey, Bhagavati Bharati Devi Namohastutey
The beautiful human Form of Saraswati comes to the fore in this English translation of the Saraswati hymn:
"May Goddess Saraswati,
who is fair like the jasmine-colored moon,
and whose pure white garland is like frosty dew drops;
who is adorned in radiant white attire,
on whose beautiful arm rests the veena,
and whose throne is a white Lotus;
who is surrounded and respected by the Gods, protect me.
May you fully remove my lethargy, sluggishness, and Ignorance."

Hindu Guru Mantra
The Guru or teacher has great importance in Hindu culture; this is so since ancient times. The Guru has occupied a position second to none, and even the Gods and parents came after the Guru in ancient India.
The Guru was the one who took charge of the pupil from his parents and the pupil stayed with Guru in his residence which was known as the Gurukul.
The Guru was the one who imparted pure knowledge to his pupil, hence the Guru is described as being the one who is Brahms, Vishnu and Mahesh. These three are the Hindu trinity of the Creator, protector and the Destroyer.
The Guru is also described as the Parabrahma or the Universal energy or the Ever Existent.
However the modern times are the very opposite of those ancient times and the very definition of student and teacher has undergone a radical change. I hope we learn from the wisdom of the ancients.
