In Hinduism, the goddess of knowledge and learning is Saraswati. She is often depicted with a vina (musical instrument), symbolizing the arts, and is associated with wisdom and enlightenment. Saraswati is worshipped particularly during the festival of Vasant Panchami, where devotees seek her blessings for academic pursuits and artistic endeavors. As the consort of Brahma, the creator god, she plays a vital role in the cosmic order, emphasizing the importance of knowledge in maintaining balance in the universe. Her image represents the pursuit of higher understanding and enlightenment.
