	She who is white as the jasmine, adorned with a garland of whitest dew drops, pure. Her vestements have the radiance of purest white. In her divine hands is the celestial vina and She is seated in a white lotus (S'rî Chakra). She to whom the trinity, Brahma, Vishnu, and S'iva offer eternal worship. May Saraswati, Supreme Goddess, bless us for She destroys the ignorance that is bottomless.
