एकं सद् विप्रा बहुधा वदन्ति-
Ekam Sad Vipra Bahudha Vadanti.
The Truth is One; the wise call it by various Names.
Vasant Panchami is a significant cultural and spiritual festival celebrated by Hindus worldwide, marking the arrival of spring and a renewed sense of optimism. Observed on Magh Shukla Panchami—the fifth day of the bright fortnight of the lunar month of Magh—the festival is especially dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the symbol of knowledge, learning, music, and wisdom. This day is traditionally regarded as Saraswati’s divine appearance day.
In 2026, Vasant Panchami falls on 23 January, and the Hindu Heritage Society will be organising a Saraswati Puja, with a special focus on students, as per the published program. Families and communities come together to seek blessings for children’s intellectual growth, clarity of thought, and a bright future.
Recognised by the colour yellow, symbolising energy, clarity, and new beginnings, Vasant Panchami carries universal relevance. For Pacific and global audiences, it reflects shared values—respect for education, creativity, harmony with nature, and the passing of wisdom across generations.
🌼 Vasant Panchami reminds us that every new season is an opportunity to learn, grow, and create with purpose.

Glory, glory, all glory to you, O Mother Saraswati; you are renowned throughout the three spheres as the treasure-house of all great noble virtues. Let all sing to the glory of your name!
CHANDRAVADANII PADMAASINII DYUTI MANGALAKARE
SOHE SHUBHA HANSA SAVARE, ATULA TEJADHARE
O infinitely radiant Goddess, you are beautiful and right as the moon and are seated in lotus posture; you are lustrous in appearance and source of all blessings; your vehicle, the auspicious swan, looks elegant.

In your left hand, O Mother Saraswati, is the lute (Veena) and in the right a wreath; on your head lies a splendid coronet of gems and around your neck a string of pearls.
DEVII SHARANA JO AAE UNAKAA UDDHAARAM KIYAA
PAITHI MANTHARAA DAASII, RAAVANA SANHAARA KIYAA
O Goddess, whosoever sought refuge in you was released from the cycle of birth and death. By perverting the mind of Kaikayee’s dull-witted handmaid, Manthara, you became instrumental in the destruction of Ravana.
VIDYAA GYAANA PRADAAYINII, JAGA MEIN GYAANA PRAKAASHA BHARO

ॐ प्रणवो धनु: शरो ह्यात्मा ब्रह्म तल्लक्ष्यमुच्यते । अप्रमत्तेन वेद्धव्यं शरवत्तन्मयो भवेत् ।। #मुण्डकोपनिषद
PRANAVO DHANU SHARO HYAATMAA BRAHM TALLAKSHYA MUCHYATE.
APRAMATTEN VEDADHAVYAM SHARAVATTANMAYO BHAVET. Mundakopanisad
The Sacred Word (AUM) is likened to a bow, with the soul as the arrow and Brahman as the target. When one focuses unwaveringly, allowing their attention to remain steady, they will pierce the target. Just as an arrow becomes one with the target once it has struck, the soul merges with Brahman, achieving unity.
