Saraswati Devi in a cave


If we all think just only Ayodhya was under siege, we are all mistaken. 

Maha Periyavar refers to an incident in Madhya Pradesh. The place is Dhar city. It was ruled by King Bhoja, nearly about thousand years ago. He was great supporter of Indian Arts, literature, poetry, Sanskrit, architecture etc. People came to learn that a few people saw some Sanskrit letters inside a cave there in a Mosque. Only after independence, the Epigraphical department could manage to obtain permission from the custodians and see inside the cave. There was a chakra inscripted within which lot of slokas in Sanskrit was written. 

The same was Saraswathy Devi Temple during King Bhoja's era. Maha Periyava says it was proof that those days Kings preserved and worshipped Sastras, Vedas. 

Saraswathi Namastubhyam sarva devi namo namaha
shaantarupe shashidhare sarvayoge namo namaha

सरस्वति (Sarasvatii) - Devi Saraswati
नमस्तुभ्यं (Namastubhyam) - Salutations to You
सर्वदेवि (Sarva-Devi) - All Goddesses
नमो (Namo) - Salutations
नमः (Namah) - Salutations
शान्तरूपे (Shaanta-Ruupe) - Who has a Tranquil Form
शशिधरे (Shashi-Dhare) - Who Wears the Moon
सर्वयोगे (Sarva-Yoge) - Who is the Embodiment of All Yogas
नमो (Namo) - Salutations
नमः (Namah) - Salutations

Meaning:
6.1: Salutations to Devi Saraswati, Who is the Embodiment of All Goddesses; Salutations, Salutations to Her.

6.2: Who has a Tranquil Form, Who Wears the Moon and Who is the Embodiment of All Yogas; Salutations, Salutations to Her.
