[1]


According to the story of the Upanishads, Lord Brahma created the creatures, especially the human vagina, by the order of Lord Shiva in the early period of creation. But he was not satisfied with his creativity, he felt that there was something missing due to which there was silence all around.

Then Brahma ji started taking water from his kamandal in his own Anjali and started praising Lord Vishnu by sprinkling that water in his resolve. Hearing the praise of Brahma Ji, Lord Vishnu immediately appeared before him and knowing his problem, Lord Vishnu gave a call to Adishakti Durga Mata. Due to the call by Vishnu, Bhagwati Durga immediately appeared there, then Brahma and Vishnu ji requested them to overcome this crisis. [2]

After hearing Brahma ji and Vishnu ji, at that very moment, a huge glow of white color emerged from the body of Adishakti Durga Mata which turned into a divine woman. This form was that of a quadrilateral beautiful woman with Veena in one hand and Vara mudra in the other hand. In both other hands, there were books and garlands. The goddess sweetened the veena as soon as Adi Shakti appeared from the light emanating from the body of Shri Durga, so that all creatures of the world got a voice. There was uproar in the water stream. The wind started rustling. Then all the Gods who communicated the word and the rasa, called the goddess "Saraswati", the presiding goddess of speech. [3]

Then Adishakti Bhagwati Durga told Bramha ji that this goddess Saraswati born of my glory will become your wife, just as Lakshmi is the power of Shri Vishnu, Parvati Mahadev is the power of Shiva, similarly this Saraswati Devi will be your power. After saying this, Adishakti Shri Durga became impatient while looking at all the gods. After this all the gods got involved in the operation of the universe. Purana

Prano Devi Saraswati Vajhebharvajinivati ​​Dhinamanitrayavatu.
