The Silenced Goddess

Upon the tongue, where words are born and worlds dissolve, She sits – Saraswati, goddess of all that is known, cradled between the spoken and the silent.

But a hand reaches. Uninvited. Unyielding. Gripping the very bridge between thought and truth.

Who decides which words rise? Which wisdom is permitted to breathe? Which voice is given wings –
and which is held, mid-flight, before it becomes prayer?

The goddess waits. Patient. Eternal. For even a restrained tongue carries the weight of universes –
and knowledge, no matter how tightly held, always finds its way into the light.

“To silence wisdom is not power – it is fear wearing the mask of control.”
