How Ganesha Got His Head Birth of Lord Ganesha - The first incident is the birth of, Lord Ganesh and how he got his elephant head. When Parvati was idly playing around with some mud one day, she noticed that she had unwittingly created the form of a boy. When she noticed this and expressed surprise at the beauty of the form, she breathed life into it and thus Lord Ganesha was created. This occured In the days when Shiva sed to go away on long periods of meditation/tapas. The boy thus grew with time, It then so happened that one day Parvati asked Lord Ganesh to stay outside and guard the house while she bathed. She was specific that nobody should be let inside. The little boy understood the instruc- tions and took it seriously. Thus when Shiva happened to come by and saw a young boy guarding the door, he was surprised. He tried to go in but Lord Ganesha bared him from entering, Shiva questioned him, but the boy simply sayed that his mom has forbid anybody from entering the house. Shiva at first reasoned with him, and then got angry and cut of Lord Ganesh’s head with his Trishul (trident) Parvati obviously on hearing this commotion and learning what has happened is disconsolate. She demanded that Shiva restore Ganesha's life at once. But unfortunately, Shiva’s Trishul was so powerful that it had hurled Gane- sha's head very far off. All attempts to find the head were In vain. Asa last resort, Shiva approached Brahma who suggested that he replace Lord Ganesha’s head with the first animal that comes his way. Shiva sent his ganas to accordingly get the head of the first thing that they saw. The ganas spotted a elephant whose head got trans- planted onto Lord Ganesh, e . e Ganesha, the Destroyer of Pride Ganesha is also the destroyer of vanity, selfishness and @ bride He sthepersonifation of material universe mall @ its various magnificent manifestations. "All Hindus worship Ganesha regardless of their sectarian belief, He is both the @ beginning of the religion and the meeting ground for all Hindus." e Lord Ganesha’s reverence for his parents - Once there was a competition between Ganesha and his brother Kerttikeya as to who could circumambulate the three worlds faster.

When asked why he did so, he answered that, to him his parents meant the three worlds ° Lord Ganesha and Vyasa - When Veda Vyasa was beginning to write the epicMa- @ habharata, he requested Ganesha to be the scribe. Being playful, Ganesha agreed to be the scribe on one condition = that Vyasa must recite the epic non-stop. Vyasa agreed @ and thus the great epic of Mahabharata was written by Ganesh, e e Lord Ganesh and the moon - e Once, Ganesha accidentally tripped and fell, breaking one of his tusks in the process (this i also said to be one of the @ reasons for Ganesha’s half or missing tus). Chandradev (Moon God) saw this and laughed. Ganesha, being the @ short-tempered one, cursed Chandradev that anyone who happens to see the moon will incur bad luck.

The terrified creature ran for cover, but, Ganesha thought it was playing a game. He looked behind a tree — there it was, trembling ané round-eyed. “Aha, got you! " sald the chubby god and shot at it again. Miaowing with fear, the cat scooted for cover under a log. Ganesha chased it down and pulled it out. He rolled it around in the mud and threw it up in the alr like a furry ball! Once more, the cat escaped, Ganesha lost interest and went back home. He was in for a shock. There sat Parvati, his lovely moth- er, her face and arms scratched and mud-stained. “Ma, how did you get hurt?" cried the litte fellow. ‘ve no idea,” said Parvati. "What have you been up to?” “1 was playing with a cat and..um... was pretty rough with hei ‘Now I know why I have these bruises!" said Parvat Drawing Ganesha close, she explained, “Ganesha, my body is the world and every living creature in it. | was that cat, too! Whatever you do to other beings, you do to me as. well!” Ganesha wes stunned and deeply remorseful. "So my ev- ery little action matters... wow! I'm so sorry, Ma, Ill never do harm to anything...ever!" Smiling at her son, Parvati sald, “That may not be pos- sible, son. But do be aware of your actions and harm as, lietle as possible.” Nodding, Ganesha ran off to find the little cat and make peace with her. This ancient myth works at many levels. When told to ‘a young person, it brings home the message of non- violence, for which child can bear to see its mother hurt? Italso exemplifies the concept of the sacred feminine. By personifying the earth and all of creation as a benevolent ‘and beautiful goddess, the legend drives home the vital importance of respecting the environment and caring for it. The Legend of Ganesha’s Sacred Grass Analasure was a ferocious demon whase voice made the exrth tremble and whose eyes emitted fre. His thirst for bloodletting spared none = powerful sages and strong men included. The god Indra engaged him in battle sev- eral times and retired defeated. Weary of his rampaging, all the celestials trooped to Lord Shiva for advice. Shiva did have a remedy for them — that they should approach Ganesha, whose huge pot belly alone could contain Analasura Ganesha agreed to help and transformed himself into a chubby, litle boy. Analasura approached him, his eyes shooting fireballs, reducing the environment around Ganesha into cinders. In the battle that ensured, Gane- sha suddenly assumed enormous proportions and gulped down the demon. ‘This was somewhat akin to our swallowing a plateful of chillies. Ganesha was in agony, unable to lie down or re- main stil. The panicked gods offered several remedies to cool Him down but nothing worked. Finally, relief came in the form of 88,000 sages, each of whom performed healing rituals with 21 blades of Durva grass. Ganesha declared that henceforth, anyone worshipping Him with Durva grass would be the recipient of his be- nevolence. Durva grass has played an important role in Hindu rituals since ancient times. Itis believed to have purifying and healing properties. When plucked, it grows back rapidly. Itis thus an enduring symbol of renewal, regeneration and fertility leading to associations with prosperity. For this reason, Durva is linked to a householder god like Ga- nnesha, rather than His hermit father, Shiva. Durva Is derived from two words - duhu, the first word means "that which exists afar" while avam is “that which pulls closer’. Interpreted in the context of Ganesha, the Use of Durva during worship draws His great power, which in turn dispels the negativity within our bodies. ‘The Durva's three blades symbolize the essence of Shiva, Shakti and Ganesha. ‘Ata more basic level, the ritual exemplifies how easy it isto please Ganesha with the offering of this humble grass. Why do Hindus use the swastika on auspicious occasions? ‘The swastika is a benedictory or auspicious mark in the form of a cross, the four arms of which are bent at right, angles. Besides Hindus, other communities and religions also consider this mark auspicious. It is therefore custom- ary to make this mark before any auspicious ceremony or function, In the Ganesh Puran itis said that the swastika is a form of Lord Ganesha, It is necessary that this be made be- fore beginning any auspicious work. It has the power to remove all obstacles. Those who ignore it may fail. Is therefore customary to make all beginnings with the swastika ‘The Swastika Is also known as Satiya’, which Is a symbolic of the Sudarshan Chakra. People also consider it as a sym- bol denoting plus (+). That makes it a symbol of prosper- ity. The four dots around the swastika are symbolic of the four directions around us. Religious texts explain that the eight arms of the swas- tika are symbolic of the earth, fire, water, ai, sky, mind, ‘emotions and feelings. The four main arms point in four, directions. They represents the four eras- Satyug, Tre- tayug, Dwaparyug and Kalyug. They also represents the four castes ~ Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and Shudras. ‘They represents the four ashrams of life too — Brahmacha- rya, Grihast, Vanprasth and Sanyas. The four arms are also symbolic of the four basic aims of human pursuit - dharm (righteousness), arth (prosperity), Kaem (passion) and moksha (salvation). They are also symbolic of the four faces and four hands of Brahma and of the four Vedas — Rig-Veda, YajurVeda, Sam-Veda and atharva-veda. They are also symbolic of the four constellations ~ Pushya (@Bth), Chitra (14th), Shravan (22nd) and Revti (27th). In one of the hymns in the Rig-veda itis said that the swastika is symbolic of Surya (Sun). In the Amarkosh, itis referred to as a pure and auspicious blessing. In this way, the swastika Is really symbolic of all the direc- tions and of Gods and auspicious circumstances. One must appreciate its importance and adopt it as a part of every- day life. Puja 1.
