Saraswati Puja, also known as Vasant Panchami, is a Hindu festival dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the deity of knowledge, wisdom, music, arts, and learning. It is celebrated predominantly in the Indian subcontinent, particularly in the states of West Bengal, Bihar, Odisha, Uttar Pradesh, and Maharashtra. Saraswati Puja falls on the fifth day (Panchami) of the bright half of the Hindu lunar month of Magha (January-February), which marks the beginning of the spring season (Vasant). Devotees perform elaborate rituals and prayers to honor Goddess Saraswati and seek her blessings for academic success, creativity, and spiritual enlightenment. On Saraswati Puja, people set up temporary shrines or pandals dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, adorned with flowers, fruits, and other offerings. Students place their books, instruments, and other educational tools before the goddess, seeking her blessings for success in their studies and artistic pursuits. The festival is also celebrated with cultural programs, music, dance, and recitations of poetry and scriptures dedicated to Goddess Saraswati. Yellow is the predominant color associated with Saraswati Puja, symbolizing the onset of spring and the blossoming of knowledge and creativity. Saraswati Puja is a time for reverence, devotion, and celebration of the arts and education. It is a significant occasion for students, teachers, artists, and scholars to express their gratitude and seek the blessings of Goddess Saraswati.
