The series of the Saraswati rituals will begin on Sunday (26 July 2009) with the succession of samadi (meditation) or praying. On the pitch day of Saraswati, all books, lontar, or other holy documents will be attached with the offerings of banten Saraswati, then proceed with praying to adore Goddess Saraswati, the God's manifestation as the creator and protector of knowledge. The adoration and all things related to brata saraswati (important things) are carried out in the morning or dawn but not passed daytime.
