The Patron Deity of Music, Learning and Dance

Here Goddess Saraswati sits upon a peacock. Her two main hands support and play her veena. The veena establishes her as the patron deity of music, while the book in her lower left hand associates her with wisdom and learning.

The peacock is a beautiful bird with a bright plumage, and his dance is proverbial and well known; when the feathers composing his tail shoot up fan-like in a beautiful semi-circular arrangement of great beauty indicative of joy. The peacock is perceived as a proficient dancer unsurpassed not only in dance steps, but also in the grandeur of its color glory like a danseuse, well dressed and fully equipped with ornamentation and apparel. Its presence in this sculpture shows that Devi Saraswati is unquestionably the patron deity of dance.

Therefore, through three symbolic attributes, this sculpture firmly establishes Goddess Saraswati as the patron deity of music, learning and dance.
