N2 - This study aims to compare the texts of Aji Saraswati (AS) from three texts of Shivaism's traditions in Java and Bali. The data sources used in this study are the texts of Aji Saraswati (AS), Bhimaswarga (BhS), and Jatawedana (JW), which are ancient manuscripts and have transformed into text editions. Philological work steps were carried out to process data in the form of ancient manuscripts and literature studies to collect data in the form of text editions of previous studies. In data analysis, this research used comparative or comparative literature studies. This study found that there are comparisons in the form of similarities and differences in symbolical meaning in structure, written media, and mysticism in Aji Saraswati in various texts from Java to Bali. This comparison can be evidence of the transmission of texts to various regions from Java to Bali. It then rebuts common assumption that this Shivaism literature was originated in Bali and transmitted to the other regions in Indonesia.
