did brahma marry his own daughter saraswati(satarupa , satrupa ))?

Namaste

Among many false claims there is a claim about brahma marriage with his own daughter. In some hindu texts, devi saraswati is depicted as daughter of brahma. Our team is always ready to debunk suchbiased claims.

It's important to note that other name of devi saraswati is satarupa and there are 2 satarupa first one is devi saraswati and second one is wife of manu and daughter of brahma(satarupa). 

Here are the verses which says brahma married his own daughter Matsya puran 3.42 and 3.43-44. 

This verse says brahma married satarupa here satarupa is saraswati(wife of brahma). (Point to be noted: The marriage here is not literal and doesn't involve the rites and rituals as done in normal marriages, this type of marriage is not sexual, it is universal and the wife is considered as consort rather than literal wife)

This verse also says brahma married satarupa but as we know here satarupa is depicted as wife of brahma. 

Secondly, it is common fact that Brahma created us all including Saraswati, so Saraswati can be considered as Brahma's Kriti(creation) rather than Putri(daughter). Be it Saraswati of Satrupa(wife of Manu), all are kritis of Brahma and not putris. Even we are considered as Brahma's creation. If Brahma is absolute and biological father of Saraswati, then who's the mother?? It is common and universal law in material world, that a child is born only by connection of a male and a female unless it's a boon or bane(such as in Mahabharata, Kunti wasn't biological mother of Karna, Karna was given as a gift from SURYA DEV). Now, people might argue that Maa Durga is mother of Saraswati( google knowledge ya know). But in reality, Maa Durga is just considerer superior and not the mother. Saraswati is one of the Pancha Prakritis (the first five mothers, in this order: Radha, Lakshmi, Saraswati, Durga and Savitri). 

Thus, before claiming that Saraswati is the daughter of brahma, the mlechhas must find out the mother of Saraswati through authentic vedic scriptures.
