In the book Symbolism in Hinduism, A. Parthasarathy notes that the name Sarasvati literally means “the one who gives the essence of our own Self.” Сарасвати иногда изображают с четырьмя руками, сидящей на лотосе. В одной руке она держит тексты священных писаний, в другой — цветок лотоса. Другими двумя руками она играет на вине — индийской лютне.[1]
