Maa Maha Saraswati Mantra for intelligence:
शुक्लां ब्रह्मविचारसारपरमांद्यां जगद्व्यापनीं
वीणा-पुस्तक-धारिणीमभयदां जाड्यांधकारपहाम्।
हस्ते स्फाटिक मालिकां विदधतीं पद्मासने संस्थिताम्
वन्दे तां परमेश्वरीं भगवतीं बुद्धिप्रदां शारदाम्।।
Shuklaam Brahmvichaar Saar Paramaadyaam Jagadvyaapineem Veennaa Pushtak Dharineem
Abhayadaam Jaad Yaapandhkaaraapahaam
Haste Sfatik Maalikaam Vidhateem Paramaasane
Sansthitaam VandeTamm Parameshwareem
Bhagavatheem Buddhi Pradaam Shaaradaam.
We meditate on Maa Sharada Who Is Pure White In Colour, And Whose Deepest Essence Can only be fathomed by inquiring into The Nature Of Brahman (Absolute Consciousness); Who Is Supreme And Primeval, And Her Essence Is Spread Across the whole universe As Consciousness, Who Is Holding The Veena symbolizing the essence of music, Book symbolizing the essence of knowledge, And Displaying The Gesture Of fearlessness arising out of knowledge; the knowledge which removes the darkness of ignorance from our minds, Who Is Holding A Garland Of Crystal Beads In Her Hand Shining With Purity, And Who Is Abiding On The Seat Of Lotus Blooming like an awakened consciousness. We extol and worship Her, Who Is The Supreme Divine Mother Who Awakens our intelligence; we worship Maa Sharada.
