Sarasvati | Sarasvati está asociada con el habla, la poesía, la música y la cultura, y es conocida como la Diosa del Aprendizaje y la Patrona de las Artes y la Música. Es reverenciada tanto por hindúes como por budistas. Para los budistas es la consorte de Manjushri, el bodhisattva de la sabiduría. Los budistas apelan a Manjushri pidiendo inteligencia, sabiduría y maestría sobre la enseñanza, poder de exposición, elocuencia y memoria. Él trabaja con el Señor Maitreya. Los dos son representados a veces con el Buda Gautama, formando un trío en el que Manjushri representa el aspecto de la sabiduría y Maitreya el aspecto de la compasión de la enseñanza budista. Como Sarasvati, Manjushri trae el don de la iluminación. | ||
