Saraswati: Symbol of Divine River

 Three divine aspect of Mother Divine/ParamIshwari are Parvati, Laxmi and Saraswati. Parvati is symbolized by Mountain, Laxmi by half of Vishnu who lives in Sea, and Saraswati by River. 

In particular, why should Saraswati must be represented by the River? She is the one who bestow knowledge. But she is not the knowledge itself, rather the force by which she flood out the ignorance. She is not the illuminating Gayatri, but the river at her full speed, who will clean up the blockage.

Her function is only limited to that much, because the all shining Ishwor/Ishwori/Devata is the self illuminating knowledge. xyz ................ 

She is the diving river functioning like the material river and enriching like the material river and is pure like material river. She is, She is. 

Without a bridge, nobody ever reached the other side of the river.

Hindu Jurisprudence- Smriti And some property law

I just don’t have the energy to write against the popular teaching (perhaps I have read the wrong books) that Hindu jurisprudence is contained within the Smriti, mainly the Manusmriti, and the property systems of the two schools — Mitakshara and Dayabhaga (I forget which region each school belongs to). But these are laws, not jurisprudence. I admit I do not know the subject of jurisprudence deeply — such a tragedy — but it seems to me these were laws made for the time and place according to the wisdom of the sages of that era. The Smriti writers themselves clearly said that the source of their understanding is the Veda. So, anyone who wants to understand exactly what truth Hindus hold must study the Vedas. Those who cannot may go through the Upanishads (major texts distilled by sages to teach the essence of the Jñāna part of the Veda). Those who still find that difficult may turn to the Mahabharata (which is in itself a “great battle” to understand), or they may study Mīmāṁsā, Nyāya-śā...

Dharma - Nyaya

(To clear my thought process ) Dharma is that which bears, that which provides stability to a thing, a person, or a nation in motion. Nyaya is specific to the individual; A person who abides in Dharma may still be affected by the Adharma of another who fails to uphold it then the State/Society must inject Nyaya to tha specific person or group or even state. Jurisprudence (in my limited understanding and information ) could not ditinguish between these two concepts and confused it with morale, divine rule, command, society, economics etc. These two are related, but Dharma is what guides the Naya but here it has nothing to do with legal system, it is independent and move with truth, whereas Naya alone requires legal system. Hence, Jurisprudence has long divorced its essence of Dharma (somehow natural school using reason could hover around truth) and focus on legal system alone. ..................

Vedas- The Ultimate -Darshan lets not say Philosophy it will be injustice to Great Sages

Vedas -Nobody knows what is it, it is praised by Sages of later dates hence people still praise it -I have not read any piece of paper (except the Secret of Vedas by Sri Aurobindo) which relates Vedas to Pshychology (which I think is still inadaquate (daring to challenge legend in my own foolishness)). 1.Some recites it like parrots 2. Some criticize it like Vedic sages were just fancy poets with lots of imagination 3. Some give it credit to later Vedantic development as part of Methods of Knowledge, which means Vedas are cave men and Vedanta were modern men 4. Some laugh about it since they worship Sun Moon lightening air etc. etc. Let me go one by one 1. reciting with full faith and accuracy have some benefits but it will limit to the level of brain only and that too for soothing purposes and other, which will produces mechanical results (results are bound to happen) 2. too poor may be who translated and criticizes it must lack knowledge of Vedangas, they were expert in musical no...
