تستدعي هذه الترتيلة الباوستيكية ذات الآية الواحدة ساراسفتي بوصفها ثدياً لا ينفد مُغذّياً، تنمو منه «الكنوز المختارة» (vāryāṇi) وتزدهر. وبمدحها على أنها مانحة للبهجة، مُلتمَسَةُ الرضا، سهلةُ النداء، سخيةٌ، يهدف هذا المانترا إلى نيل زيادةٍ ثابتةٍ في المقتنيات والرخاء والهناء بفيض عطائها الجاري.

Frequently Asked Questions
It is a Paustika (prosperity) mantra used to promote nourishment and the thriving increase of valuables—resources, wealth, and well-being—through Sarasvatī’s abundance.
The image presents Sarasvatī as a motherly, ever-flowing source of sustenance: from her fullness come delight, favor, and the growth of “choice treasures.”
No substances are required by the verse. Some practitioners optionally keep clean water nearby as a symbolic reminder of Sarasvatī’s flowing, nourishing presence.
