EnglishAbhyankara Grammar
Englishसारस्वत name of a grammar work which was once very popular on account of its brevity, believed to have been written in the sutra form by an ancient grammarian named Narendra who is said to have composed 700 sutras under the inspiration of Saraswati.1The exposition of these Sutras by a reputed grammarian named Anu- bhutisvaripacarya who possibly flourished in the thirteenth century A. D., is known by the name सारस्वतप्रक्रिया which has remained as a text book on grammar to the present day in some parts of India. This प्रक्रिया is popularly known as सारस्वतव्याकरण. The techni- cal terms in this grammar are the current popular ones.

EnglishSārasvata, a ṛshi, son of Dadhīca and Sarasvatī. § 368 (Tīrthayātrāp.): III, 83, 7058 (yatra--i.e. in Dadhīca's tīrtha--Sºo yātaḥ [read jātaḥ with PCR.]
so 'ṅgirās tapaso nidhiḥ, cf. § 615gg).--§ 371 (Tuṅgaka): III, 85, 8189 (Aṅgirasaḥ sutaḥ, when the Vedas had been lost, S. taught them to the ascetics, cf. § 615gg).--§ 615 (Baladevatīrthayātrā): IX, 51, 2926 (ºsya munes tīrthaṃ), 2927 (muniḥ, during a drought of twelve years he taught the Vedas to the brahmans), 2928 (muniḥ).--§ 615gg (do.): In days of yore the muni Dadhīca, living as a brahmacārin, had by his austerities afficted Indra with fear. As he could not be turned away even by diverse kinds of rewards, Indra despatched to him the Apsaras Alambushā on the banks of the Sarasvatī. At the sight of her his seed fell into the Sarasvatī, the river held it in her womb and brought forth a son whom she brought to the ṛshis, who granted her a boon, saying that the Viśvadevas, the ṛshis, the Gandharvas, and the Apsarases would henceforth derive great happiness when oblations of her water were presented to them, and praised her as having sprung from the lake of Brahmán, etc., and said that the child should be named S., and during a drought of twelve years teach the Vedas to many brahmans, and that she should become the foremost of all sacred rivers. The river took the child with her. Meanwhile, on the occasion of a war between the gods and the Dānavas, Indra wandered through the three worlds in search of weapons, but failed to find such weapons as were fit to slay the enemies of the gods, until Dadhīca (hh), solicited by the gods, gave up his life (and obtained many regions of inexhaustible merit) and Indra from his bones caused many kinds of weapons (thunderbolts, discs, maces, clubs, and bludgeons) to be made. With the thunderbolt born of Brāhma energy and inspired with mantras, Indra made a loud noise when he hurled it and slew ninety-nine heroes among the Daityas. After a long time a twelve years' drought occurred, and the ṛshis fled away
only S. was retained by the Sarasvatī, who supplied him with food, giving him large fishes, and he offered oblations to the ṛshis and the gods. While wandering with famished stomachs, the ṛshis had lost the knowledge of the Vedas and solicited one another to lecture on the Vedas. Then they learnt them from S., becoming his disciples, 60, 000 in number, though he was but a boy: IX, 51, 2945, 2946, 2947, 2962, 2967, 2968, 2970 (muniśreshṭhaṃ), 2976 (viprarsheḥ).
Sārasvata^2, a ṛshi, son of Atri. § 665 (Mokshadh.): XII, 208, 7597 (one of the ṛshis of the west, Atreḥ putraḥ).-§ 770 (Ānuśāsanik.): XIII, 151, 7115 (Atreḥ putraḥ, one of seven Varuṇasya ṛtvijaḥ in the west).--§ 775 (do.): XIII, 166, 7669 (Atreḥ putraḥ, one of the ṛshis of the west).
Sārasvata^3 (“son of Sarasvatī^2”) = Apāntaratama(s): XII, 13675 (Aº), 13695 (Aº).
Sārasvata^4, adj. (“belonging to Sarasvatī^1--2”). § 365 (Maṅkaṇaka): III, 83, 7004 (lokaṃ).--§ 370 (Tīrthayātrāp.): III, 84, 8044 (lokeshu).--§ 377 (Dhaumyatīrthak.): III, 90, 8375 (avabhṛtaiḥ).--§ 409 (Plakshāvataraṇag.): III, 129, 10526 (yajñaiḥ), 10534 (do.).--§ 561 (Yānasandhip.): V, 57, 2254 (gaṇāḥ, follow Ulūka?).--§ 615 (Gadāyuddhap.): IX, 35, 2006 (tīrthānāṃ).--§ 615j (Maṅkaṇaka): IX, 38, 2244 (lokaṃ).--§ 615p (Vasishṭhāpavāha): IX, 42, 2365 (tīrthe, i.e. Sthāṇutīrtha).
पुराणम्
Englishसारस्वत १ / SĀRASVATA I. See under apāntaratamas.
सारस्वत २ / SĀRASVATA II. An ancient hermit. It is mentioned in mahābhārata, śalya Parva, Chapter 51, Verse 7, that sārasvata was the son of dadhīca. dadhīca once happened to see the celestial maid alambuṣā and became excited, and seminal discharge occurred to him. The semen fell in the river sarasvatī. The river became pregnant and delivered a child. This child grew up and became the famous hermit named sārasvata.
After the death of the hermit Dadhīci, due to scarcity of rain a great famine occurred which lasted for twelve years. When the famine became unbearable all the hermits on the basin and banks of the river sarasvatī began to migrate to other places leaving all their possessions behind, to save their lives. But sārasvata alone remained on the banks of sarasvatī, living on fish obtained from the river, engaged in meditation and study of Vedas.
After twelve years the famine ended and the country became prosperous as before. The hermits who had gone to other places began to come back to their hermitages. The desire to study Vedas grew up in their minds. But there was not a single person, well-versed in the Vedas, except sārasvata. So all the hermits accepted him as their teacher. Thus sārasvata taught the Vedas to Sixtythousand hermits, who had returned to their hermitages. (M.B. śalya Parva, Chapter 50).
In course of time the place where the hermitage of sārasvata stood, became famous under the name sārasvata tīrtha. tuṅgakāraṇya is another name of this place. (M.B. Vana Parva, Chapter 83, Verses 43-50).
In ancient days there were two schemes of study known as ‘Kāṇḍānukramapāṭha’ and ‘Sārasvatapāṭha’ for the Taittirīya-collection (saṁhitā). But today the Kāṇḍānukramapāṭha has become quite extinct. The following is a description, given in Śaṁskāraratnamālā stating how the ‘Sārasvatapāṭha’ attained so vigorous a vogue.
Once owing to the curse of the hermit durvāsas, the river sarasvatī took birth as a woman in the house of a Brahmin, who belonged to the gotra of ātreya. Later from that same Brahmin she conceived and gave birth to a son named sārasvata. The river sarasvatī herself, taught her son the Vedas completely, and then sent him to kurukṣetra to do penance. As a result of the penance sārasvata got an original kramapāṭha (serial lessons) of the Taittirīya saṁhitā. He taught those serial lessons to his disciples. In course of time these serial lessons got the name Sārasvatapāṭha. which earned metaphysical and philosophical importance.
सारस्वत ३ / SĀRASVATA III. A hermit who lived in the western regions. It is stated in mahābhārata, śānti Parva, Chapter 201, Verse 30, that this sārasvata was the son of the hermit atri.
सारस्वत ४ / SĀRASVATA IV. Mention is made in padma purāṇa, Svargakhaṇḍa, about another hermit sārasvata, who taught the Vedas to several disciples in tuṅgakāraṇya.
सारस्वत ५ / SĀRASVATA V. The people who lived in a particular region of Western bhārata. (bhāgavata, skandha 9).
