Ya, but one observation needs to be explicit...
Here Kumud is the sun... fiery, energetic and represents the day; while Saras is the moon- cool (sheetal), calm and brooding; represents the night... So the reverse scenes in water give the balance..The person with a sunny disposition (Kumud) finds solace only when surrounded by the cool, breezy, moonlit night and the night waters with the moon shimmering on its surface.The person with a lunar disposition (Saras) finds his life force and energy only while worshipping the morning sun, taking succor and breath from the day light and meditating and praying while immersed in day waters.That is why Saraswatichandra and Kumud complement each other.
