Special – Eating vine on Panchami causes stigma. (Brahmavaivarta Purana, Brahma Khand: 27.29-34)
In the 118th chapter of ‘Brahma Purana’, Shani Dev says- ‘Those who regularly touch the Peepal tree on my day i.e. Saturday, all their works will be accomplished and they will not have any pain from me. Those who wake up early in the morning on Saturday and touch the Peepal tree, they will not have planetary pain. (Brahma Purana’)

Touching the Peepal tree with both hands on Saturday, ‘Om Namah Shivaya’. By chanting it 108 times, the effect of sorrow, difficulty and planetary defects gets pacified. (Brahma Purana’)

Shri Krishna told Saraswati

प्रतिविश्वेषु ते पूजां महतीं ते मुदाऽन्विताः । माघस्य शुक्लपञ्चम्यां विद्यारम्भेषु सुन्दरि ।।
मानवा मनवो देवा मुनीन्द्राश्च मुमुक्षवः । सन्तश्च योगिनः सिद्धा नागगन्धर्वकिंनराः ।।
मद्वरेण करिष्यन्ति कल्पे कल्पे यथाविधि । भक्तियुक्ताश्च दत्त्वा वै चोपचारांश्च षोडश ।।
काण्वशाखोक्तविधिना ध्यानेन स्तवनेन च । जितेन्द्रियाः संयताश्च पुस्तकेषु घटेऽपि च ।।
कृत्वा सुवर्णगुटिकां गन्धचन्दन चर्च्चिताम् । कवचं ते ग्रहीष्यन्ति कण्ठे वा दक्षिणे भुजे ।।
पठिष्यन्ति च विद्वांसः पूजाकाले च पूजिते । इत्युक्त्वा पूजयामास तां देवीं सर्वपूजितः ।।
ततस्तत्पूजनं चक्रुर्ब्रह्मविष्णुमहेश्वराः । अनन्तश्चापि धर्मश्च मुनीन्द्राः सनकादयः ।।
सर्वे देवाश्च मनवो नृपा वा मानवादयः । बभूव पूजिता नित्या सर्वलोकैः सरस्वती ।।
