maho arnah sarasvati pracetayati ketunaa
dhiyo vishvaa viraajati namo namah namo namah
The name Sarasvati means literally ‘she of the stream’ or 'one who flows', a quality that applies equally to breathing, thoughts, words, or the movement of a river. Sara also means 'essence' and sva means 'one self'. Taken together, 'the essence of oneself'. The Goddess of music and art and literature, she can also represent the movement of forms in time. She is the consort of Brahma, the lord of creation. According to Vedanta, Sarasvati represents creativity, fertility, intelligence, consciousness, communication, education, enlightenment, music, and the arts. Mahadevi means 'great goddess', and Bhagavati means 'full of ecstatic bliss'.
Literal translation: Maho means great, and arnah means wave or flood or stream. Pra = towards, cetayati = awakening. Ketunaa is intellect, dhiyo is wisdom and vishvaa is universe. Vi = prefix of order, arrangement, raajati = shining. Namo namah means honor to the name. Sarasvati is a representation of the great wave or stream of knowledge that awakens the intellect. The shining wisdom in the universe.
