Happy Ganesh chaturthi

The form of Ganesha is one that unites humanity with the rest of creation. The human world and the animal world. That symbolises strength and intelligence. 

Ganpati has four hands. One is held out in the ‘abhay’ mudra which bestows fearlessness. Yet to acquire fearlessness, we need to unite as a community. The idea of Sri Lokmanya Tilak to make this a social event was to create this unity amongst people. 

The vehicle of Ganesha is the mouse. Why the mouse?1.one angle - desires,Control negitivity & overpower it  2. The mouse has ability to break down substances into their tiny parts. we have to Break big things into small pieces - If we have a big assignment we have to break it into smaller chunks and do it one piece at a time.
Law - every thing is tough before it becomes easy.By the yard it’s hard, but inch by inch, anything’s a cinch

Ganpati is connected to the natural cycle. When we bring this small mud idol home, we offer it all our love and devotion. This idol which collects our positive thoughts and energies is then returned to the earth, either through the rivers or even at home, it carries our goodwill to others and to our environment. We then are united through the earth, the waters and through our goodwill. We need to bring this awareness back into the way we perform our rituals.

Do not confuse understanding with a larger vocabulary,”                                 

 “Sacred writings are beneficial in stimulating desire for inward realization, if one stanza at a time is slowly assimilated. Continual intellectual study results in vanity and the false satisfaction of an undigested knowledge " - paramahamsa yogananda
