From an ancient river in India to a Goddess inspiring art, music and learning across Asia, Saraswati flows through history, myth and human creativity. Honoured in sacred texts, celebrated in Bali’s vibrant rituals and revered from Nepal to Japan, she embodies wisdom, inspiration and the eternal current of thought. Her presence reminds us that knowledge and creativity are never still, they ripple, dance and transform, shaping both the world and the mind.

Across Bali, Bedogol refers to the guardian statues that flank the entrances of temples and family compounds, the silent watchers carved in stone. Positioned in pairs on either side of a gateway, they serve as spiritual protectors, anchoring the threshold between the ordinary world and sacred ground.
