Sarasvati, Hindu goddess of letters, music, and magic, is honored today. Her images portray her holding a book, a sitar, and prayer beads. For inspiration, on a white square of cloth place pearls, a white flower in a glass bowl of water, a bottle of ink, a pen, and a sheet of new paper. If you wish for inspiration of another sort, use symbols for your corresponding art. Burn a white candle and a stick of incense, and pray:

O Mother Sarasvati,
Remove the darkness from my mind
And bless me with eternal knowledge.

Meditate using the following mantra:

Om aing Sarasvati namaha Om.

It is said that if you say this mantra 500,000 times, all knowledge will be revealed.
