8. Referred to as X in Hindu mythology, Benzaiten is the goddess of
everything that flows: water, words, speech, eloquence and music
and by extension, knowledge. The original characters used to write
her name read "Biancaitian" in Chinese and "Bensaiten" in
Japanese and reflect her role as the goddess of eloquence. Because
the Sutra of Golden Light promised protection of the state, in Japan
she became a protector-deity, at first of the state and then of
people. Lastly, she became one of the Seven Gods of Fortune when
the Sino-Japanese characters used to write her name changed
to(Benzaiten), emphasizing her role in bestowing monetary fortune.
