SARASVATI SLOKAS

Sarasvati slokas
Om Eim Saraswatyai Swaha !
Sarasvati namastubhyam varade kaamaruupini
Vidyaarambham karishhyaami siddhirbhavatu me sadaa !

[Oh Goddess Saraswati, my humble prostrations unto you,
who are the fulfiller of all my wishes. I am beginning
my study, let me attain perfection in that, always.]
