(with bell; Mahisha in bull form) 2. (with bow; pulling out Mahisha) 3. (with snake; Mahisha, with club, in human form) Sarasvati Ambika Mata temple, Jagat Brahma's wife here carries a water-pot (lower left hand), a vina (upper left hand), and a fragmentary attribute, possibly another vina (upper right hand). Although the water-pot is an attribute of Brahma, it is also an independent attribute of Sarasvati in her older aspect as a river goddess. (Brahma's book is also an independent attribute of Sarasvati, in her role as goddess of learning.) Because Sarasvati and Brahma share several attributes in common, it is not always easy to distinguish Sarasvati from Brahmani, the female form of Brahma Sarasvati Keshava Temple, Somnathpur Sarasvati plays the vina; additional arms bear a staff (middle right arm), rosary (upper right arm), and book (upper left arm). The goddess's fingers and thumbs are heavily beringed. Her vina and book, the latter usually interpreted as a copy of the Vedas, establishes Sarasvati as goddess of poetry and the arts. Lakshmi Kailasanatha Temple, Ellora Lakshmi is lustrated by elephants in this large panel facing the gateway, just inside the temple. As elsewhere at Ellora, the sculptures appear unfinished because their fine details were completed in plaster, which has long since fallen off.
