Note to Bur-Myan speakers: keep a look out for क्ष kS conjunct = क ् ष
spelled with a fricative dental {Sa.} and not with the palatal plosiver-stop {sa.}.
In Bur-Myan and Pal-Myan they have the same grapheme- they are
differentiated only in Romabama.

The full pose, which is suitable for intermediate students, will be described in the Full Pose section below. First we'll practice the leg position only, which should be accessible to most experienced beginners.
(aa-KAH pah-DAH rah-JAH-cop-poh-TAHS-anna)Step by Step
1. Begin on all fours, with your knees directly below your hips, and your hands slightly ahead of your shoulders. Slide your right knee forward to the back of your right wrist; at the same time angle your right shin under your torso and bring your right foot to the front of your left knee. The outside of your right shin will now rest on the floor. Slowly slide your left leg back, straightening the knee and descending the front of the thigh to the floor. Lower the outside of your right buttock to the floor. Position the right heel just in front of the left hip.
2. The right knee can angle slightly to the right, outside the line of the hip. Look back at your left leg. It should extend straight out of the hip (and not be angled off to the left), and rotated slightly inwardly, so its midline presses against the floor. Exhale and lay your torso down on the inner right thigh for a few breaths. Stretch your arms forward.
3. Then slide your hands back toward the front shin and push your fingertips firmly to the floor. Lift your torso away from the thigh. Lengthen the lower back by pressing your tailbone down and forward; at the same time, and lift your pubis toward the navel. Roll your left hip point toward the right heel, and lengthen the left front groin.
4. If you can maintain the upright position of your pelvis without the support of your hands on the floor, bring your hands to the top rim of your pelvis. Push heavily down. Against this pressure, lift the lower rim of your rib cage. The back ribs should lift a little faster than the front. Without shortening the back of your neck, drop your head back. To lift your chest, push the top of your sternum (at the manubrium) straight up toward the ceiling.
5. Stay in this position for a minute. Then, with your hands back on the floor, carefully slide the left knee forward, then exhale and lift up and back into Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward Facing Dog Pose). Take a few breaths, drop the knees to all-fours on another exhalation, and repeat with the legs reversed for the same length of time.

From: Vasant Panchami - the festival Saraswati puja, by Meera Sashitala (source: Free Press Journal)
Hindu Temple & Cultural Society of USA, Inc., Sri Venkateswara Temple (Balaji Mandir) & Community Center http://www.guruvayurappantemple.org/pdfs/Vasantha_Panchami.pdf 100419
Vasant Panchami heralds the advent of spring. This festival that marks the first day of spring. Vasanta means the spring. The fields are mustard yellow with the ripening of crops. Yellow is of auspicious colour - a colour of sprituality. Vasant Panchami falls on the fifth day, of Magh (January-February) Shukla or the bright of lunar.
Saraswati is the consort of Lord Brahma and is the Goddess of Wisdom and Knowledge. She is the personification of knowledge - arts, science, crafts. She represents Shakti, creativity and inspiration and presents herself when the weather is complacement and Nature is in its full grandeur. It is a season of inspiration and passion.
On Vasant Panchami, Saraswati is worshipped and in Bengal it is called the Saraswati Puja. They worship her with flowers, specially with basaka (Justicia gendarussa), and decorations are made chiefly with 'Ganda' (marigold , the yellow coloured flower to represent the season - Vasanta. All ladies attire themselves in yellow and worship her. She is generally represented sitting cross-legged on a lotus or a water-lilly holding Vina. Her vehicle is swan in Bengal and peacock in some regions.
Goddess
Saraswati being the embodiment of intellect and wisdom is depicted as pure white
in colour is knowledge is in itself the antithesis of the darkness of ignorance.
The Padmapurana describes Goddess Saraswati being seated on a white Lotus clad
in a spotless white apparel with a necklace of white beads, decked with white
flowers and holding the Vina. She is sometimes described to have four hands
holding Vina, aksamala (rosary) and Pushtaka (book). Saraswati is extolled by
the Gandharvas, worshipped by both Devas and Asuras and adored by Munis and
Rishis. She is the embodiment of universal knowledge. It seems, Goddess
Saraswati has been compared by Sir William Jones to the unarmed Minerva, the
Goddess of Wisdom of the Greeks and Romans. Raraswati is also compared to their
nine Muses.
Saraswati
literally means 'the flowing one'. In Rigveda it is said she represents a river
and the deity presiding over it. In the later mythology, Saraswati was
identified with Vach or Speech. The `flowing one' in allegorical sense may mean
speech also; perfect speech which denotes intelligence. On this Vasant Panchami
day, Brahma is said to have created Saraswati and infused speech into her and
bestowed the Vina in her hands. She was thus named as 'Veena Vandini (Vina
player) and 'Vani Dayyani' recipient of speech). As the spouse of Brahma and the
goddess of wisdom and eloquence, She is known by various names such as Vinapani
(due to holding the Vina), Sharada (giver of essence), Vagisvari (mistress of
speech), Brahmi (wife of Brahma), Mahavidya (knowledge supreme) and so on.
In the Maratha countries, Goddess Saraswati is sometimes called the wife of Ganesh and sometimes his attendant. At the name-giving ceremony in marriage, if a man's name, for instance, is Ganesha, his wife is named Saraswati, just as a Ramachandra's wife is named Sita, or a Krishna's wife is named, after his spouse Rukmini.
Vasant
Panchami is also known as Shri Panchami. As Saraswati Puja, it is observed
religiously almost in all parts of India expecially in Bengal. Goddess Saraswati
being pure and white and representing learning, no animal sacrifice is made to
her. Idols of Saraswati are brought and worshipped.
Floral offerings are made in a big scale. Books, articles, instruments of music and arts are placed before her. In the evening after the Puja is over, the idol is immersed in the sea with serenity unlike other major festivals. In all educational institutions of music, arts and science, Saraswati Puja is observed with great reverence. Legend has it that on this day Lord Shiva burnt the God of Love, Cupid of Kamadev. Lord Shiva was lost in Samadhi and to break his Samadhi and to impassion him to beget a son powerful enough to kill the demon Tarakasur, Gods send Cupid the God of Love. Cupid or Kamadev discharges an arrow at Lord Shiva from behind a tree. But, Shiva gets terribly angry and reduces Cupid or Kamadev to ashes with his third eye. The Festival of Vasant Panchami is observed on a grand scale in Punjab and the North when the mustard crop is ripe. They cook yellow rice and also wear yellow garments.
Saraswati Puja is also performed during the Navaratri or Dussehra.
