Mother Mahasaraswati - a Nepalese image

Thank you very much to Sumangali for this marvellous Nepalese image of Mother Mahasaraswati.

Mahasaraswati, the Mother of perfect perfection

Mahasaraswati is the Mother's Power of Work and her spirit of perfection and order. The youngest of the Four, she is the most skillful in executive faculty and the nearest to physical Nature.

Mahasaraswati, the Mother of perfection, knowledge and wisdom

All worlds with ignorance blind immerse in Thy Light,
O Queen of perfection-seal
Thy birth of Lore supreme within us bursts
And makes us eternal, free.
