Kalpana
There is a note on Kalpana, saying the term refers to Saraswati, but there is nothing in this article which mentions Kalpana. Could somebody who is knowledgeable please either add something to this article explaining the connection between the two names, or (if there is none), delete the link on the Kalpana dab page?

Saraswati belief carried across into Europe by Romanis and converted into Catholic festival
The Romani people (Roma) of Europe are of NW Indian decent and left India shortly after 1000ad. Some scholars believe the Roma are decendants of the Rajputs and were forced out of India after defeat against Islamic invasion.

The language they speak comes from a heavily Sanskrit worded Rajasthani dialect that has Panjabi & Persian additional words in it. After leaving India they were soon travelled to Anatolia where they stayed for some time and absorbed some Greek and Armenian words from the natives of that land. They then from there moved into Europe when Islamic Turks added Turkey to thier empire.

Romani converts to Catholicism have got their own Saint named Sara. Sara is connected to water and in the festival they carry statues of her down to the water. It is believed that the once Hindu believing Roma have adapted some of their beliefs to fit in with European beliefs.

[The Romani people (Roma) are not to be confused with the Roman people of Italy or the country by the name of Romania as these people are nothing to do with them] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.34.227.166 (talk) 22:21, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Which is it, V or W?
This page alternates between Saraswati and Sarasvati. The French page uses only the latter. Is it that Sarasvati is Sanskrit while Saraswati is some current language? Or, less likely, is it that this page has contributions from the Germans, who would use the W? Most likely, people looking this up would be interested in the Sanskrit form for consistency in comparative mythology, not the current form so as to be converted to Hinduism. I myself came across the name in "Cowboy Bebop". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.69.127.105 (talk) 21:20, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Did Saraswati have a husband?
Well, yes, she did have a husband. Her husband was Brahma. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.64.35.168 (talk) 16:28, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Three goddesses?
The article immediately begins with "Saraswati is the first of three great goddesses." The three goddesses are in no way "great" in any other aspect than that they are the consorts of the male Devas. If any goddess is great it is Devi, of whom all other goddesses are aspects. I suggest recognizing these three consorts as a triad, rather than as "great goddesses."

Some Hindus believe in a Godess Trinity which is just like the Trimurti only that the 3 members of the Trimurti (Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu, and Lord Brahman) are replaced by their 3 wives (Godess Durga, Godess Lakshmi, and Godess Saraswati). Armyrifle 01:34, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Saraswati is the daughter of Brahma not his wife. Saraswati's children are the Vedas. So actually Brahma is her father. --Saraswathigirl (talk) 09:21, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Other meanings... Saraswati River
«''In India there is a river called Saraswati, which flows from the west end of the Aravalli Hills into the east end of the Rann of Kutch. [citation needed]''» As Saraswati River notes, there are several referents, one of which has no article, Sarsuti River — and this appears to be the river indicated above. The Sarsuti is now a tributary of the Luni River, which runs in the Sarsuti's lower course, does rise in the western Aravalli Range, and does empty into the northeastern corner of the Rann of Kutch. The Sarsuti itself comes from Pushkar Lake, also near the Aravalli Range, so (like the the Luni) it fits that description — if you designate the confluent rivers as the Sarsuti rather than the Luni. See these linked articles. — Sizzle Flambé (☎/✍) 05:27, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

@make this secular yes there are many mistries as they are in other religious beliefs like who will believe the rebirth of Jesus christ???also there are some theories which can not be explained like christianity dont belive in animal offerings but abraham demanded head of one of his two sons as a offering.so himself originator contradicts its theory,so we better comment on this after thorough study.so let's not comment on any of the religions theories untill a indepth knowledge and lets not malign any religion,and better we know own religion first before commenting on any other religion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.231.29.21 (talk) 05:51, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

Poor Quality of articles on Hinduism, its Deities and Vedic Literature
I have been noticing this for quite sometime; the articles are not upto the mark; people who wrote it either lacked the information or cited individual reseraches which may not contain the real context. Honestly speaking these articles must be written under a Seers' guidance who know the subject very well and/or references should contain copy of manuscripts with learned commentary ( Sanskrit commentary contains - meaning of the words and semantics). ```` —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.95.108.124 (talk) 14:48, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

No Confusion
The Trinity are Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva. Their respective consorts are Saraswati, Lakshmi and Parvati. Some ignorant people advance the illogical and factually incorrect argument that if Brahma is the "Creator", then all beings created must be children and so Saraswati must be a daughter to Brahma. The fact is that the consorts of the Trinity are simply manifestations of the Supreme Goddess. Just as the Trinity can manifest themselves further into various forms as the occasion demands, so can their consorts, but that's a different story altogether! — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheOnlyEmperor (talk • contribs) 07:15, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Sarasvati (saraswati) was Slavic goddess Zora, Zorica/Danica Sveta
The same goddess was Slavic goddes Zorica, Zora or Danica, which meant "dawn" or "star" or "lightened" (day; Dana). Sveta is "light, holy" or "world". Her holy symbol was a white swan. The transliteration in Sanskrit, Slavic is "Surya-Sveta" ("white(bright) sun(star)). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.182.57.39 (talk) 17:50, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

Sources for stories?
The entire section of stories from the mythology (i.e., Sarasvati's interactions with Brahma, etc.) appears to be without sources. A very quick survey of Hindu lore will reveal many different versions of the same stories, so where did these ones come from? Ar they from a primary source, like the Puranas? Are they someone's personal research? Did they come from an encyclopedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:1:9780:3F:2458:B670:A3D1:2347 (talk) 00:18, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Saraswati and Imagination
there are too much mythology story in Hindu Dharma.out of these saraswati is one.recently in Times of India there are news there is no any Indian University in top 200 university in world.Do you know why Because SAraswati is specialist Goddess in India. But Most important is what is Saraswati's Role in Education... then why should she is Goddess of Knowledge or Education.
 * In India Savitribai Phule and mahatma phule started first Girls school in 1848.there should be Savavitribai's Puja In school during starting any program. But There are Hindu Teachers Majority in all school in India so they refuse to Do so.
 * Saraswati Not Started any school. it is not clear that Vedas are Written By Saraswati.
 * Hindu Majority Teachers goes with this mythology and making false propaganda about Saraswati.PRASAD 02:20, 23 February 2014 (UTC)

Goddess of "Science"
This article recently mentioned on three occasions and without references that Saraswati is a goddess of "science." We should find some good sources to demonstrate this before writing it here. -Darouet (talk) 23:22, 27 January 2014 (UTC)

Not really, because the mention of he as a goddess of science is a pretty common interpretation of her role as governing all things associated with learning and knowledge. But if you insist I could point you to http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/hmvp/hmvp17.htm#fn_100 where the author WJ Wilkins, an author on Hinduism assesses her as a goddess of wisdom and science. You could find it in any scholarly work but again it's trivial because she is a goddess of science and that is pretty much ubiquitous among mythologists.Grathmy (talk) 18:36, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Etymology
This etymology section, added in 2014, is a complete original research invention. Sarasvatī means she who possesses (vatī) pools (sara/saras). The current made up etymology is an attempted reading by a westerner, backed up with incorrect references to the wrong words in a sanskrit dictionary. No reputable source translates the 'sva' in 'Saraswati' as 'sva' meaning self, because that does not explain the 'T'. 'Sara' cannot mean essence either because it is spelled wrong (short a vs. long ā). If this were the correct etymology her name would be Sāraswayi. 64.183.168.138 (talk) 18:57, 10 April 2018 (UTC) (Wasn't logged in)Iṣṭa Devatā (talk) 19:11, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment: Most sources which are about Hinduism use "Sarasvati" for the goddess. "Saraswati" is actually incorrect as "v" is the correct English translation of the Sanskrit letter व. "Saraswati" is common as a feminine name in India and Google books may contain many authors and other characters. . 245CMR . •👥📜 12:41, 10 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Oppose per WP:USEENGLISH. In IAST, Sarasvatī is popular which most scholarly references will use. However, in Indian English, it is transliterated as w. The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Hinduism uses w. Google trends favours w.-- Redtigerxyz Talk 13:04, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

 * I cannot comment why the व is transliterated as W in Saraswati and v in Parvati, but the fact remains that the simplified transliteration in Indian English is overwhelmingly Saraswati . Primary transliteration/ Simplified transliteration is preferred to Formal transliteration (like IAST/ ISO). -- Redtigerxyz  Talk 15:38, 10 July 2021 (UTC)


 * ok, thanks for your response . 245CMR . •👥📜 15:44, 10 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Comment, it isn't really possible to say that either v or w is the correct transliteration of a Sanskrit character into English, no matter what some authoritative body says; English is not subject to decrees from authoritative bodies, neither foreign nor domestic, and never has been. More importantly, though, Sanskrit and English are so far removed from one another in time and space that, from a purely genetic standpoint, nothing in Sanskrit can be said to correspond exclusively to English v or w and not the other: because, v and w (and u, but we can ignore that, because this matter pertains to the consonant usage) are all descended from the same letter. Latin v, in classical times, when a consonant, was the same sound as modern English w. In nearly all the continental languages, that sound shifted and became the modern v sound. English, OTOH, retained the old sound, and when it became necessary to differentiate the sounds in writing, they signified the historic v sound by doubling the letter - whence came w. So, another thing to consider, here, is how is this name pronounced? Does it sound more like English w or v? (note also, most languages that use the Latin alphabet do not have different sounds for those letters than English does). The pronunciation should have some weight, I think, in deciding this matter. Firejuggler86 (talk) 02:58, 11 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Oppose — the common usage is overwhelmingly Saraswati in (Indian) English, as highlighted by the Google trends and ngrams links mentioned above. Regarding the v vs. w in romanizing व (va in IAST), in Sanskrit this letter represents /ʋ/ (see Sanskrit) in the IPA which is a voiced labiodental approximant. This consonant is almost a hybrid between /v/ and /w/ and may explain this difference in romanizations. &mdash; Iune  talk  23:09, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Saraswati should be changed to Sarasvati
Phonetically, 'v' is more accurate than 'w' for these Indian names. Bibek Debroy systematically uses 'v' in all the Sanskrit names like Sarasvati, Vishvakarma, etc. The other popular goddess Parvati is never spelt as 'Parwati'. So let's make the usage of 'v' instead of 'w' standard in all Sanskrit words this sound appears in.

It will have initial pushback but it's a matter of habit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LWTBP (talk • contribs) 10:53, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

Sexuality and Creative Dissent
@Aadrit28 I've reverted the edits because the sources that were added failed verification, other information lacked citations and was written in a POV such as these:
 * In either case, Saraswati's complicated relationship with her father-husband problematises her subject position, and her curse, and her virtue of knowledge makes her an unorthodox feminine figure
 * Saraswati is thus like no other goddesses, she isn't the demure Lakshmi, the temperamental wife of Vishnu, or the very heroic Durga, or even Kali. She is the guardian of knowledge, her curse is an act of dissent against oppression, and her mastery of art a subversion of phallogocentrism
 * It is perhaps only Saraswati, unlike any other goddess, who maintains and exists as being relatively free from a male dominance and without any dependence on male deities, the male deities rather depend upon her, and frequently invoke her for knowledge and wisdom.

Wisdomlib.org
This article relies heavily on Wisdomlib.org - I see multiple uses of that site as a reference. Here is that source's 'About' page - it is a single person's project, and a self-publiched source, therefore inherently unreliable. The author, Gabe Hiemstra, is not (as far as I have been able to establish) an academic, nor has his work been published in reliable sources, so we cannot treat this as an EXPERTSPS. The source should be replaced by better sources where possible; any material supported by it that cannot be supported by any other source ought to be removed.

 * Thanks for starting this thread, it's definitely worth a discussion since I've also seen it cited in other articles as well such as Tulasi in Hinduism, Ganga (goddess) and Bhagiratha to name a few. The site is clearly self published but I don't think the info is written by the author himself. It looks like it's a digital compilation of various texts (that the author has 'collected') as the book, author, ISBN number are noted at the top of each page. For example this page notes that the excerpt is from the Puranic Encyclopedia by Vettam Mani and when you compare it to the actual book found here, the info looks all the same. So seems like it's probably better to just cite the original source itself. Eucalyptusmint (talk) 17:38, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
