“He, the son of Shiva, has five arms, the face of an elephant and powerful tusks, is like the appearance of a month, he is a flower of wisdom that resides in the heart, I praise his feet. Lord Ganesha, the god of time and memory, residing in the Muladhara chakra, maintaining the balance between the higher and lower chakras, supports all sentient beings. He holds the drawings of the entire past and future of the entire universe - this divine masterpiece.
Only goodness comes from God Ganesha, who, having taken the form of an elephant, is different from other Gods. He removes misfortune from those who perform penance in his name. He directs our karma, being inside us and determining the time of events. Before undertaking any important undertaking, we ask him to remove obstacles from the path, if it be his will. This Lord of obstacles ensures that we do not harm ourselves by living an imperfect plan, or making unnecessary requests, or embarking on an ill-conceived enterprise. Before we approach him, he expects us to use all our mental abilities in order to arrive at the decision he has made.”
Tirumantiram.
The Legend of Ganesh, Chandra (Moon) and Shani (Saturn)
I decided somehow Chandra, that is, the Moon, to visit Shiva and Parvati, because he had heard a lot about their beautiful son. But then, as if to spite him, some fat freak came across on his way, and besides, he also had an elephant's head, and asked him:
Where are you going, o radiant one?
To which the radiant immediately replied:
To Shiva and Parvati, to see their beautiful son - Ganesha.
So I am Ganesha! This strange creature confessed, to which Chandra burst out laughing:
Are you Ganesha? Are you kidding! He is Ganesha! He's slick! He's pissed off! And you ... fu ...
Ganesha was offended, but decided to teach Chandra a lesson immediately. Well, he cursed him, cursed him with ugliness, Chandra - after all, he is a beautiful deity, and since he was so proud of his beauty that he did not recognize Ganesha only because of his appearance, Ganesha cursed him with ugliness.
Having become ugly, Chandra hid in a distant cave out of shame, and in the meantime, the time of Ganesh's Sade-sati came. By the way, Sade-sati is the most disgusting period, especially for those who are not in harmony with Saturn. The most unfortunate time, lasting seven and a half years for people, but for the gods, seven and a half days.
So, about the beginning of this “joyful” period, he came to Ganesha Shani and informed him about the beginning of the “fun”. That is: "even though you are the god Ganesha, I will still be able to torment you." To which Ganesha reacted in this way:
The scriptures say that Sade-sati occurs when Saturn enters a sign before the sign in which the Moon of the native is located. Where is the moon now?
Shani looked at the empty sky, scratched his turnip and shrugged his shoulders.
Otozh th it, - answered Ganesha.
What to do? - Shani (Saturn) was perplexed.
There is nothing to be done, oh your darkness, - Ganesha answered, - come tomorrow.
So Shani went to Ganesha for seven days, and in the end, when Sade-sati ended, he could not stand it and asked the elephant-faced how he did it. Ganesha, of course, did not hide the secret of a simple trick, and, in the end, then he saved the moon from the curse.
And they lived happily ever after, and Ganesha, moreover, also asked Shani for blessings so that everyone who turns to him with prayers would not suffer too much during their Sade-sati. Shani could not refuse the wisest, so read Ganesha and also live happily ever after.
Legend of Ganesh and the Moon
Here Ganesh did not like the Moon, what to do, the next legend is about this. On one of his birthdays (Ganesh Chaturthi), Ganesha enjoyed sweet pudding and Indian laddu sweets. Having finished with the meal, with the onset of night, he sat on his mount - a mouse and went for a walk.
But when he saw a snake on the road, the mouse got scared and stumbled, Ganesha fell and his huge belly burst, and all the sweets fell out. Elephant Face fixed this incident by returning the food back and tying a snake around his stomach (which is why he is sometimes depicted with such a fancy belt).
All these actions seemed amusing to the Moon, and she laughed when she saw such disrespectful behavior, Ganesha cursed the Moon that no one would be able to look at her during Ganesh Chaturthi (Ganesh's birthday). And if someone does so, then his honest name will suffer from this.
Legend of Ganesh and the Rat
Each deity of the Indian pantheon has its own mount, and Ganesha is no exception. Oddly enough, this huge elephant-faced deity rides a small rat, or mouse, which is called Mushika. There are several legends about this.
According to one of them, one demon, who also had the face of an elephant, once heard gossip about himself, in which he was compared to Ganesha in an impartial way. Enraged, he ran to Mount Kailash and began to call Ganesha to fight him. In the next second, he found himself lying on the ground with a bynim put to his throat.
How did you do this? - The demon was amazed, to which Ganesha only laughed, and the demon expressed a desire to serve him and become as fast. Agreeing, the elephant-faced god turned the demon into a mouse, and since then this demon has been serving Ganesha in this way.
According to another version, Ganesha fought with one demon for a long time and could not defeat him in any way, because the demon's wife prayed to the goddess Parvati, the mother of Ganesha. The elephant-faced god asked the mother to stop protecting the enemy, but Parvati could not satisfy his request, as she had to give her devotee what she asked for. As it turns out, not everything is so simple, even for the gods.
However, in this story, the wisdom of Ganesha came to his aid and he and Parvati came to an amusing consensus. The elephant-faced deity did not kill the demon, but turned it into a mouse and his servant. And when the angry wife of the demon turned to Parvati with claims, she only shrugged her shoulders and replied that she had fulfilled the request of the devotee - she had saved the life of her husband. So what if he's a mouse now? But he is alive, and besides, he is also a servant of the unsurpassed god of strength and wisdom.
The legend of how Ganesha lost his tusk
There are also several versions on this topic, according to one of them, the tusk was cut off by Parashurama, who came to visit Shiva. But since this god was sleeping, Ganesha refused to let Parashurama into the house. According to another version, Ganesha broke off his tusk himself, as the pen with which he wrote down the Mahabharata broke. And he wrote it down from the lips of Vyasadeva, before agreeing with him that the story would be written down only if the sage would not be interrupted. Thus the elephant-faced deity sacrificed his tusk in order to write down the poem.

We bring to your attention three legends about Ganesh, which everyone in Jaipur knows!
Why does Ganesha have an elephant head
The god Shiva and the goddess Parvati had two sons - Skanda and Ganesha. In appearance and character, the brothers were very different from each other. The six-faced Skanda, tall, thin, quick-tempered, was known as a skilled warrior .. The trunk and overweight figure made Ganesha look like an elephant. But he had a calm and kind disposition. From birth, Ganesha was a very beautiful boy, and this is how it happened that he became like not a boy, but an elephant.
When Ganesha entered the second month, Parvati decided to perform the ceremony of naming.
Preparations for the celebration began. All the gods were sent invitations. And who among them would not wish to come to the holiday to the great Shiva! Finally the long-awaited day has come. Parvati put on Ganesha a beautiful dress and jewels and laid him in a golden cradle.
All the gods who came to the celebration were delighted with the beauty of the boy and brought him many gifts. Only the god Shani, standing behind everyone, stubbornly did not raise his eyes.
Before leaving home, he quarreled with his wife because of something, and she, seeing that Shani dressed up and was going to the holiday, lost her temper. She wished he could stay at home so she could vent all her anger on him. But Shani was so fed up with her whims that he decided to leave at all costs. And then she cursed him. “The first person your eyes fall on will be left without a head,” she said to him at parting. That's why Shani didn't look at anyone.
Noticing this, Parvati took Ganesha in her arms and approached Shani. Turning away, he told her about the curse of his wife. But pride in her son clouded Parvati's head, and she said:
- Admire, Shani, what a beautiful son I have, and besides, his father is the great Shiva! Forget the curse, look at him.
As soon as Shani looked at Ganesha, the boy's head separated from the body and disappeared. The gods are frozen. The fun was interrupted, everyone was sad. Parvati at first seemed to be petrified, and then, looking at her headless son, she sobbed loudly. Fortunately, Vishnu was nearby - the remover of all troubles.
- If Ganesha is immediately attached to someone's head, it will grow, - he said.
Shiva was the first to catch the eye of a baby elephant. And Shiva, without hesitation, tore off his head and put the boy to the body. The boy came to life. Parvati was delighted, but seeing how the trunk dangled on Ganesha's face, she was sad again. “Now everyone will laugh at my son and no one will honor him,” she thought. But Ganesha did not lose heart. He loved his father and mother very much, he was an obedient, devoted son. In gratitude for his devotion and patience, Shiva blessed his son: “May you be the smartest, kindest and most revered of all the gods!” Parvati was happy. So since then they have become the first to honor Ganesha and after him - all other gods.
How Ganesha surpassed his brother
Once Skanda and Ganesha were playing on the shore of the holy lake Manasarovar. Ganesha took sweets in his trunk and handed them to Skanda. When Skanda tried to grab these sweets, Ganesha deftly threw them up and ate them, and Skanda remained standing with his mouth open.
“So I will never defeat Ganesha,” Skanda decided. - I'd rather run with him. Ganesha is overweight, clumsy, cannot run fast.”
But the wise Ganesha perfectly understood what his brother was up to. Hiding a smile, he said:
- Brother, why should we run a race, anyway I will overtake you.
They argued, argued, and finally decided:
- Whoever goes around the three worlds in fifteen days and returns first, he will be the winner.
The next day, Skanda mounted his peacock at exactly four o'clock and set off.
“And how is Ganesha going to overtake me,” Skanda thought along the way, “he is so clumsy that it is difficult for him to step, and when Ganesha walks, his heavy body shakes and rolls over from side to side. And because he is a glutton and eats sweets all day long, he grew fat even more. In addition, Ganesha rides only on a rat. How can her step be compared with a peacock! When I arrive, of course, he will still be swimming in the lake. Then, having defeated Ganesha, I will receive the title of the first!
Meanwhile, Ganesha, having bathed and eaten plenty of sweets, set to work. He accurately calculated the time when Skanda should return, and calmly immersed himself in reading. And on that day, when Skanda was supposed to come to the house, Ganesha appeared to his mother Parvati, performed parikrama around her, bowed and sat down beside her.
Tired, out of breath, Skanda ran into the house and sees: Ganesha is sitting near his mother. What a miracle!
- Did you, brother, have already managed to go around the three worlds? he exclaimed.
Ganesha laughed merrily and replied:
- I didn't go anywhere. Sitting here, I walked around the three worlds.
- But is it possible? asked Skanda. And Ganesha said:
“Listen, my elder brother: the mother is more important than the three worlds, and doing parikrama around her is more than going around the three worlds.
Hearing this, Parvati smiled. Skanda asked his father to judge between them. After listening to his sons, Shiva took the side of Ganesha.
So smart, loving Ganesha was known as the first and best of the sons of Shiva. Therefore, Shiva made him the master of his warriors - the Ghans.
How Ganesha Became the First of All Gods
When the legend of the devotee Ganesh and his victory in the dispute with Skanda became well known everywhere, there was a dispute among the gods:
“Now, which of the gods will people worship first, who will they worship first, who will be the first to make sacrifices, the first to kindle the sacred fire?”
Everyone wanted all these honors to go to him before the others. To end the dispute, Brahma said:
- Respect will be earned by the one who goes around the earth three times and returns first.
Hearing of this decision, the gods gathered at the indicated place to participate in the contest. As soon as the sign was given, each sat on his animal, and the competition began. Only the overweight, clumsy Ganesha on his big rat went back to his home.
“You can't get far on a rat,” he thought on the way. “But what to do? Yes, I remembered! Brahma said several times that a mother, in her kindness, meekness and love for children, is more important than the earth. And the body of Shiva's father contains the whole world. Why not do parikrama around them?”
He decided so and went on his rat to the snowy peak of Kailash, to his father's house.
Ganesha arrived there, looks - father Shiva is sitting, immersed in deep contemplation.
- Mom, go quickly, sit next to your father, - he said to Parvati, taking her hand.
- What happened, Ganesha? asked the mother in surprise.
- I'll tell you later, but now, please, do as I ask.
- OK then. She walked over to Shiva and sat down beside him. Gapesha first bowed at the feet of his parents, then parikrama around them seven times and went to the chambers of Brahma.
Just at this time, other gods returned from the competition. Finding Ganesha near Brahma, they thought: “As you can see, Ganesha could not overcome the distance and returned halfway. And now he sits at the feet of Brahma and speaks flattering words to him in order to somehow excuse his defeat. But when the venerable Brahma announced to all the gods that Ganesha had received the title of the first, they were surprised and indignant.
- How is it, great Brahma, because Ganesha did not participate in the competition! How could he win?
Then Brahma announced to them:
- Ganesha not only circumnavigated the earth seven times - he circumnavigated the universe seven times!
- Is it possible? exclaimed the astonished gods.
- Ganesha - a son who loves and honors his parents; seven times he performed parikrama around them. Who doubts that a mother is above mother earth, and Lord Shiva is the whole universe! That is why Ganesha became the winner, Brahma answered the gods.
Thus, the title of the first - the best of the gods - was assigned to the faithful son of Ganesha, devoted to his parents.
P.S. During meditation at the Diksha Evening on July 28, 2016, it sounded in my head: Ganesha and his image appeared before my eyes. The most interesting thing is that this happened at the end of the meditation, where I got a unique experience for myself. One of those present rang the phone, and I began to leave the meditative state, at that moment everything happened.
Already at home, I realized how original and funny everything turned out, because. a few days ago in the evening I read to my grandson K. Chukovsky's fairy tale "Telephone". The beginning of this poem: "My phone rang - Who says - Elephant ...". It happened the same way for me: the phone rang... And... the image of Ganesha appeared!!!
Ganesha, or Ganapati - in Hinduism, the god of wisdom and prosperity. One of the most famous and revered throughout the world gods of the Hindu pantheon. Often the respectful prefix Sri- is added before his name. One of the popular ways of worshiping Ganesha is to chant the Ganesha Sahasranama (Skt. गणेश सहस्रनाम, "one thousand names of Ganesha"), each symbolizing a different aspect of the god, and the Ganapati sukta.
Mantra: Ganesha - sahasranama (see other mantras below)
Name interpretation: Lord of the Ghans (Ganapati; Ghana - the army-retinue of Shiva)
Class: The Lord of the Ghans (the army-retinue of Shiva), in his retinue there are also lies - sorcerers, soothsayers and sorcerers;
Mentions: Rig Veda, Atharva Veda, Ganapati Upanishad, Ganesha Purana, Mudgala Purana, Ganesha Sahasranama;
Related concepts: intelligence, mind, success, prosperity;
Character traits: A full man with an elephant's head and one tusk, the number of arms - from 2 to 32; Max 32 hands – number of Lemurian Crystals in each hemisphere.
Wahana(mount): rat or mouse; According to another version, a shrew or even a dog.
Shri Ganesha Symbol - swastika.
ganesha day- the fourth lunar. It is on the fourth lunar day of the month of Bhadra that the Chatur-Ganesh festival is celebrated, which is celebrated for the next 10 days. 
Ganesha is also the pranava of OM, without which there is nothing in this world.
Om or Aum is a special mantra, it is called pranava. This is the original, sacred sound, the infinite vibration of the Universe, the sound of creation. Most of the mantras in Buddhism, Hinduism, classical yoga and tantra begin and end with it.
The Tirumantiram says: "He, the son of Shiva, has five hands, the face of an elephant and powerful tusks, like the appearance of a month, he is a flower of wisdom, abiding in the heart, I praise his feet. Lord Ganesha, god of time and memory, residing in the Muladhara Chakra, maintaining a balance between the higher and lower chakras, supports all sentient beings. He holds the drawings of the entire past and future of the entire universe - this divine masterpiece. Only goodness comes from God Ganesha, who, having taken the form of an elephant, is different from other Gods. He removes misfortune from those who perform penance in his name.
He directs our karma, being inside us and determining the time of events.. Before undertaking any important undertaking, we ask him to remove obstacles from the path, if it be his will. This Lord of obstacles ensures that we do not harm ourselves by living an imperfect plan, or making unnecessary requests, or embarking on an ill-conceived enterprise. Before we approach him, he expects us to use all our mental powers to arrive at the decision he has made.”
Chanting the name of Ganesha helps a person gain siddhi and inner strength for the implementation of any projects. Along with various Indian Deities, the murti of Ganesha, the son of Shiva and Parvati, the brother of Skanda, always stands on the altar of the Hindus. According to tradition, it is Ganesha who is the patron saint of a person leading a spiritual search., and also helps the development of business, contributes to the prosperity of any business and removes all obstacles from the path of the prayer.
Being the guardian of Dharma and the son of divine parents, Ganesha is the patron of all yogis. Indeed, he is many-sided!
He is the Lord of intellect and self-realization!
Based on the lines of Tirumantiram, it is he who creates obstacles on the path of Kundalini and spiritual development, but he also destroys them at the moment when it's time to "go up". It is the anger of Ganesha that generates a fever in the sympathetic nervous system and subsequent illnesses if a person artificially tries to raise the Kundalini.
Ganesha = 53 = In India = Head = Sign 16 (an indication of the 16-dimensional universe and the 16th year)
Ganapati = 69 = Image of God = Secret = Sign 32 (maximum 32 hands and 32 Lemurian Crystals))
Sri Ganapati = 123 = Great name = Greatness of the Spirit = Law of Analogy = A gift to me = Surprise = Transformation = Swast Astu (The swastika is a symbol of Ganesha)

Shiva, Shakti and Parvati
Shiva(Sanskrit “good”, “merciful”) - a Hindu deity, the supreme God in Shaivism, together with Brahma and Vishnu, is part of the divine Trimurti triad. The origins of the cult of Shiva go back to the pre-Vedic and Vedic periods. Shiva, as one of the Trimurti gods, is analogous to the Holy Spirit in the Orthodox religion. Shiva represents cosmic consciousness, the static masculine principle of the universe (Purusha), the oppositional Shakti (Prakriti), the dynamic feminine principle of the universe. More than anyone else, he deals with manifested matter, giving birth to universes.
According to the Shiva Purana, he is the creator of both Vishnu and Brahma. It personifies both destructive and creative principles. In Hinduism, it has the epithet Mahadev, which translates as the greatest of the gods (devas). Five divine roles of Shiva: creation, support, dissolution, concealment and bestowal of grace.
In some traditions of India, Shiva is the absolute deity, performing the functions of both creation and destruction. In the Mahabharata, Ishana (one of the names of Shiva) is called "the original husband (adya purusha), the only incorruptible and eternal" and is identified with Brahma and Vishnu-Hari.
In Hinduism, each deity has its own Shakti(devi, goddess), and together they represent the Personality (personification) and Force (energy) of the single Brahman and his Shakti.
The word "shakti" (Skt. "power", "strength") has many meanings. Shakti is called the great universal infinite Divine energy, which is the creative and executive force of the ocean of Divine Consciousness ( those. Shiva's female creative power).
At the same time, Shakti is in continuous merger with Shiva, representing with him two inseparable aspects of one reality. Shakti is the Mother Goddess. Shakti is the manifested world. Shakti is called Mother Nature. Shakti is called the Goddess, the wife of the god Shiva. Shakti is the inner energy of a person. Shakti is the cosmic feminine principle. Shakti is the feminine principle of a person, his female half. Shakti is the female partner of a tantric yoga practitioner. Shakti is maya. Kali, Durga, Lakshmi, Saraswati, Parvati, Chamunda, Devi, Bhavani, Tripurasundari, Bhairavi, Chandi, Tara, Meenakshi, Lalita, Kamakshi, Rajarajeshvari - various forms of Shakti; each of these forms embodies some aspect of it.
Parvati is considered a beneficent form of Shakti. Parvati is translated from Sanskrit as "Mountain", as she is considered the daughter of Himavat (English), the lord of the mountains and the personification of the Himalayas. According to legend, Shiva's first wife, Sati, committed self-immolation, and after some time was reborn in the form of Parvati (in other versions she bore the name of Uma), the daughter of Himavat and the Apsara Menaki. 
The obvious contradiction that Parvati is called “bright, good” - Gauri, and at the same time is called “black”, “dark” - Kali or Shyama, is explained by an Indian myth: when Shiva reproached Parvati for her dark skin, angry Parvati left him and, having performed a series of religious acts, she received fair skin as a gift from Brahma.
Seeking the love of Shiva, Parvati settled next to him on the mountain Kailash, but Shiva at that time indulged in asceticism and rejected it. Then the gods, who wanted Shiva to have a son capable of defeating the demon Taraka, sent the god of love Kama to arouse love for Parvati in Shiva's heart. Enraged, Shiva burned Kama with the fire of his third eye, but later revived him. Then Parvati decided to indulge herself in asceticism for the sake of Shiva. Upon learning of this, Shiva decided to test her, and, having come to her in the form of a Brahmin, began to blaspheme and scold himself. Parvati rejected all slanders and Shiva, touched by her devotion and beauty, took her as his wife. From this marriage were born the god of war Skanda and God of wisdom Ganesha.

Origin:
The earliest references to Ganapati occur in two hymns of the Rig Veda, Suktas 2.23.1 and 10.112.9. The first sukta sings of the deities Brahmanaspati and Brihaspati, who are usually regarded as the names of the same deity, but there may be little doubt that the now known Ganapati grew out of the Brihaspati-Brahmanaspati of this sukta (Gartsamanda-sukta), but the idea is undoubtedly Vedic:
gaṇānāṃ tvā gaṇāpatiṃ havāmahe kaviṃ kavīnāmupamaśravastamam ।
jyeṣṭharājaṃ brahmaṇāṃ brahmaṇaspata ā naḥ śṛṇvannūtibhiḥ sida sādanam ।
We call you, O Ganapati Ghan (leader of the heavenly armies)!
Oh, Brahmanaspati of the Brahmins (leader of the Brahmins), Poet among poets (in the highest sense - like a creator among creators)!
In riches beyond all known, the most brilliant among beings!
Listen to our prayers, come with your blessing and sit down!
Commentators give many details specifying the leader of the heavenly armies to well-known aspects - in particular Indra and Agni, who are often revered together in the Vedas, as well as Rudra (Taittiriya Samhita and Vajasaneya Samhita describe Ganapati as Rudra). It is curious that in the same place, as well as in the Shatapatha Brahman, Agni is described as the giver of everything, having a large belly.
Ganapati is interestingly presented in the later Atharvaveda. Some deities who were not regarded as important and influential in the Rig Veda began to play a much more significant role in the Atharva Veda. Mother Earth - Prithvi becomes one of the central aspects and Brahmanaspati (Brhaspati) appears here as associated with her Vachaspati - patron saint of sacred speech. He is the first born among the gods, the number 21 is associated with him.(5 mahabhutas, 5 tanmatras, 10 indriyas and karmendriyas and prana as life force). This group of 21 is called gana or vrata and Vachaspati is called Ganapati or Vratapati.
Mahabhuta ("primary element" or gross elements) - in Hinduism there are five great or universal elements: ether, air, fire, water and earth;
Tanmatr - five subtle elements (smell, taste, sight, sound, touch);
Indriyas - five organs of perception (nose, tongue, eyes, ears, skin);
Karmendriyas - five organs of action (arms, legs, organs of speech, reproduction and excretion);
Also he and Mahad-yaksha ( great mystical light), existing in the center of the world, and all the gods as branches of this central tree of the world.
Vachaspati also appears as the leader of the Yakshas. And these yakshas are not at all the demons that the later interpretation of mythology tries to present them with. Yaksha is a wonderful, exceptional, powerful and worshipable spirit. In his retinue there are also lie - sorcerers, soothsayers and sorcerers ... All of them subsequently migrated to the retinue of Ganapati as the son of Lord Shiva. And in fact, only from the Ganapati Upanishad do descriptions of the elephant-faced appearance of Ganapati appear.
Legends: 
- According to one legend, his father, the god Shiva, deprived him of his head. Ganesha did not let his father, inflamed with passion for his wife, into the chambers where she was. Then Shiva, in anger, deprived him of his head, throwing it so far that none of the messengers could find it. The goddess was angry and refused to allow Shiva to come to her until he corrected the situation. To calm his wife, Shiva sewed on Ganesha the head of a nearby elephant. According to another version, they forgot to invite God to Ganesha's birthday Shani (the personification of the planet Saturn), and he, having appeared without an invitation, in anger incinerated the baby's head with a look. Then Brahma advised Shiva to sew on the baby the head of the first creature that he met. This creature turned out to be Indra's elephant - Airavata. According to oral Indian myths, Saturn (Shani), being one of the relatives, was invited to honor the newborn son of Shiva: Ganesha's mother, Parvati, certainly wanted to show the beautiful baby to the powerful relative. Possessing a deadly look that he was unable to control, Shani refused the invitation for a long time, but he was nevertheless persuaded. The very first glance of Shani at the son of Shiva incinerated his head. According to another version, the head just fell off.
- It is believed that Ganesha loves corn balls with a sweet core. One day, he ate too much sweets at his birthday party and, while traveling on a mouse, he fell. The mouse was frightened by a snake crawling past and threw the god off itself. As a result of this, Ganesha injured his stomach and all the sweets spilled out. But the god was not at a loss and pushed them back, and bandaged his stomach with a snake that he met on the way.
- Regarding the loss of one tusk, there are also several versions of the legends. According to one of the legends, Ganesha, fighting the giant Gajamukha, he broke off his tusk and threw it at the enemy. The tusk had magical powers, and Gajamukha turned into a rat, then becoming Ganesha's mount. Another legend says that once Shiva was visited by the sage Parasurama (Vishnu's avatar), but Shiva was sleeping at that time, and Ganesha refused to let him in. Then Parasurama threw his ax at Ganesha and cut off his right tusk. There is also a legend that, while writing the Mahabharata under the dictation of Vyasa, Ganesha broke his pen and, not wanting to miss a word, broke off the tusk and began to write to them.
- Ganesha is also the lord of the Ghans (Shiva's army-retinue). There is a legend that Ganesha and Skanda (both sons of Shiva) fought for this post, and as a result, Shiva decided that he would be the lord of the Ghans, who would run around the Galaxy faster. Skanda immediately took off and began his long journey, and Ganesha slowly went around his parents in a circle, because it was Shiva and Parvati who were the personification of the Galaxy. And after that, Ganesha received the nickname "Ganapati" (lord of the Gans).
- Shri Ganesha is depicted in the company of a mouse (a former demon), which, according to legend, he subdued and made his mount. The demon mouse symbolizes vanity and bold intentions. Thus, Ganesha eradicates false vanity, excessive pride, selfishness and insolence.
So, Ganesha, born from the union of the two principles of the Universe, is defined as the firstborn. He is also the pranava OM, without which there is nothing in this world, i.e. he is a manifestation of the creative First Sound.
God of wisdom and lord of the heavenly host. Why such an emphasis on the head?
All legends give different interpretations of the loss of Ganesha's head. Or the father himself cut it off, and this is already a hint at the Masonic ritual of “beheading” associated with the victory of the spirit over the body, i.e. “cutting off” the lower, material chakras and the coming to power of the upper, spiritual chakras of a person.
In the case of the incineration of the head by the god Shani, who symbolizes Saturn, is also an interesting point. You can talk about Saturn for a long time and a lot, but regarding our topic, and it is directly related to the New Time, I will quote from L. Semenova’s book “From Osiris to Santa Claus”: “ Saturn appears in the mythological arena both at the beginning and at the end as the ruler of the Golden Age. The Golden Age is characterized by the paradisiacal life of man in close proximity to the gods. In Paradise there is no suffering and death, and hence no time. But in the interval between the Golden Ages, Saturn from the god who controls endless time turns into a formidable god - the lord of life and death, whose symbol is an old man with a scythe, impassively mowing down any cycles. This suggests that time began to be calculated in cycles that have a beginning and an end. 
The Secret Doctrine says: “Chronos denotes an infinite and, therefore, immovable stretch of Time, without beginning, without end, beyond the divisibility of Time and beyond Space. Then Chronos is depicted as crippling Uranus, his father, that is, absolute time becomes finite and conditional; the part is taken from the whole, thus showing that Saturn, the Father of the gods, was transfigured from Eternal Duration in a limited period.
The evolution of humanity consists in the evolution of its consciousness. And it is Chronos-Saturn that is responsible for this evolution. The human spirit, being a particle of the divine consciousness, descended into the world of forms in order to, having passed the cycle of development, become a self-conscious entity equal to God. The spirit, being divine from the very beginning, did not have its own consciousness. Human consciousness, having gone through all the stages of development, in the end, must become equal to the divine consciousness, thereby gaining individual immortality.
"Endless time", about which E.P. Blavatsky, located in the realm of immortality. Death did not exist for the people of the first races, who did not possess consciousness. It was then that on Earth there was a Golden Age, which was ruled by Saturn. But then, when people received the manastic fire, which was the beginning of the development of consciousness, "absolute time" became finite, it was transformed from Eternal Duration into a period limited by cycles of different durations. 
In the myth, this is figuratively reflected by the fact that Saturn swallows his own newborn children, that is, time devours itself. Saturn, through cycles limited in time, governs the course of evolution, but his time of reign still has limits. The myth says that the moment will come when he will have to give power to his son Zeus and return to his father Uranus, where there is endless time, becoming again the ruler of the Golden Age. Infinite time is beyond physical manifestation, in the field of immortality of consciousness».
So, the god Shani (Saturn) burns the head of Ganesha, which is also very symbolic, because. It is no longer associated with a scythe, but with fire. The words of Jesus come true: “I will come to baptize with Fire…”. Everything is intertwined into a single tangle of associative links. And besides, in some texts Ganesha is called the God of Time and this also connects him with Saturn-Kronos and changing cycles.
Shiva and Parvati = 120 = Immortality
Elephant of Aivarat = 119 = God-man = Secret knowledge = Secrets of the world = Your greatness = Body of the mind = This is prana
Elephant of Indra Aivarat \u003d 196 \u003d Reflection - Space
Airavata (Sanskrit "risen from the waters") in Hinduism - 
white elephant, vahana (mount) of the god Indra. At Airavata four tusks and seven trunks. Airavata's other names are Ardhamatanga ("cloud elephant"), Nagamalla ("war elephant") and Arkasodara ("brother of the sun"). There is a version that Airavata appeared during the Churning of the Milk Ocean. One of the legends describes that Airavata was born after Brahma sang the sacred Vedic hymns over the shell of the egg from which Garuda hatched. Following Airavata, seven more elephants and eight female elephants were born from the shell. Subsequently, Pṛthu made Airavata the king of all elephants. In India, it is believed that Ayvarata was the progenitor of all elephants.
Indra or Shakra (lit. mighty, strong) is the king of the gods (devas) and the ruler of the heavenly kingdom (Svarga) in Vedism and Hinduism. Indra - one of the main gods of the Rigvedic pantheon, a thunderer (god of rain) and a serpent fighter; the god of war who leads the devas in their opposition to the asuras. The hymns of the Rigveda glorify him as the demiurge who raises the sky. He frees the dawn (Ushas) from the darkness of Vala and defeats the dragon Vritra. Like Zeus, Indra performs tricks, for which he is sometimes punished. Indra has many epithets. His weapon is the vajra and his vahana is the elephant Airavata.
Thus, Ganesha receives the head of the progenitor of all elephants, which are considered the most intelligent and wise animals. The emphasis on the head is very powerful. By the way, we know that the replacement of the heads of the sphinxes was connected with the change of the Consciousness Grid of humanity on Earth. Isn't this what Ganesha's head replacement is talking about?
Symbolism.
In every part of the body of Ganesha, a secret meaning is hidden:
- the head of an elephant symbolizes manifestations of devotion and prudence;
Big ears speak of wisdom and the ability to listen to all who make requests to the deity;
- the tusk is an indicator of power and ability to overcome dualism;
- the curved trunk symbolizes the high intellectual abilities of Ganesha;
- a large belly demonstrates the special generosity of the deity, his desire to save the universe from suffering.

My research
I'm starting to deal with the head, especially since Ganesha = Head
Elephant head = 117 = energy = creator = victory won = message = hungarian = hello brain
It is interesting that many years ago Nina N. had a dream in which she was told: “Lyuba Semyonova - the head is a thousand, Luda Vengerskaya - the brain is seven hundred.” Maybe the time has come when I am no longer only a brain, but a head as a whole, really the head of an elephant? Joke.
Elephant head Aivarat = 173 = Gift of Liberation = Find the key = The key is consciousness = Human consciousness= You did it
Ganesha - key = 135 = Golden Buddha = Reflection - mind = Time does not wait = Find your "I" We have been given the gift of love = Mind Gaining = prototypes= Gift of the Spirit
All calculations point to consciousness, to a change of consciousness, and Ganesha is the key. In fact, a change of head is a change of consciousness! It is interesting that Lyuba, on her first trip to India, when our whole group visited the main Ganesha Temple, bought key rings with Ganesha there and only yesterday she found the two remaining ones in her bins and took them out, knowing nothing about my research.
Swap head = 222 = Great Time of Change = Complete head replacement! = Attention! Attention! Attention! = Mystery "Meeting" = Mystery "Gift of Fire" = In the Church of the Resurrection = Supreme harmony= Universe at work = Spiritual resonance = Program change = Zeroing started = New Stage of Unity = Fiery Energy = Form transformation= Bring light to the brain = Rebirth ritual = The essence of human life = Remove the fog in my head = I have found my power
Wow! José Argüelles spoke of the number 222: " Something important is happening. Resurrection symbol". Several confirmations at once, both through calculations and through symbolism, that the change of head means resurrection, i.e. new life, life on another level of consciousness. In the calculation, the phrase "higher harmony." Indeed, in that meditation, when Ganesha appeared to me, I was in a state of higher harmony, in that zero state that I had read and heard about, but had never experienced before, complete bliss and I simply did not exist.
I started looking at the Dictionary for the number 222 and found a lot of important and interesting things there, which I wrote out, but when I got to the letter “P” and saw the phrase: “ Complete head replacement”, and then another “Shape Transformation” and “Bring Light to the Brains”, which is generally a direct appeal to me, because. there was a dream about me about the brain, but there are not even words!
Here it is, confirmation that my thoughts are correct. When such synchronization occurs in calculations, this is a confirmation of the correct direction of the work of consciousness and thought. Change head = Complete replacement of the head, i.e. another step in the expansion of consciousness has been made!
So, Ganesha has the head of an elephant and is sometimes called elephant-headed. 
elephanthead = 171 , and this number is calculated by the phrase " capstone". We have been working with this concept for a very long time. The keystone crowns the arch, as if locking it, and when it is installed, the vault can no longer collapse. The keystone is also the Ben-Ben egg on the top of the pyramid and much more, which indicates a certain completion of construction, i.e. cycle completion.
Probably, the realization of the energies of Ganesha is a certain final stage in some kind of construction and marks a new step in a new creation.
The head of an elephant is something special. In the symbolism of Ganesha's body parts, small eyes are also mentioned, which indicates concentration, i.e. look at the world not with the help of external eyes, but with the help of inner spiritual vision. And big ears - the ability to listen and hear, a big head of a thinker and a small mouth - "silence is golden." But most of all attracts attention - the trunk.
Trunk = 77 = source = Speech= Air
But it is said that Ganesha, like Vachaspati, is patron saint of sacred speech.
Elephant trunk = 141 = One number
The "Secret Doctrine" - the One Number or the One Number from which everything came to be - is our program, with which we are still working.
Trunk of Ganesha = 139 = Spirit Breath = The sign indicates= Our consciousness = Man in the Spirit = Claircognizance = Truth exposed
“Trunk” = Air, and “Ganesha Trunk” = Breath of the Spirit, an indication of the elements of Air, Ether and Spirit. I was interested in the phrase “The sign indicates” and I decided to build a phrase-question: “What does the sign indicate”? And I got the number 216, and this is clearly 2016! I decided to see what phrases are in the Dictionary for this number.
What does the sign indicate? = 216 = Sign of Initiation = Consciousness is the key= Global Event = Decisive Moment = Finishing Spurt = Divine birth = The future is on the doorstep= Combustion has begun = Set your hearts on fire = Dialogue through numbers = One humanity = We started connecting= Our Higher Powers = Christ Consciousness = Sacred Times = Doing the Impossible = What's in Heaven, so is on Earth = You have a chance
Appearance of Ganesha = 148 = Reflection - Light
Appearance of Ganesha to people = Appearance of Ganesha to the world of Earth = 245 = Immortal body of Light = Attention - new program = New Kryon program = Kryon's message to all = Change of our program = End the waltz tour = Attention - capstone = Resurrection and ascension = Ascension Flame Sign = Materialize the sound Om = fiery initiation = The last stage = The course of time has changed = I am working with Kryon = Claircognizance is the knowledge of Spirit
It turns out to me that the appearance of Ganesha is a sign that warns of some global event, the final spurt that awaits us, and this will be another step towards the Light and a new evolutionary leap of consciousness!
The appearance of Ganesha in front of me happened on July 28, 2016 . It is very important that this happened exactly 21 days before August 18. 21 - the number of our LK Venice and the symbolic number of Ganesha, but August 18 is a very important date, which Saint-Germain said at the beginning of the year:
“An important, central date of 2016 will be the day of the Heliacal rising of Sirius. This year it will take place on August 5th. On August 18, the alignment of the Earth and the Sun with respect to our Spiritual Sun - Sirius "C" will take place. This day is especially significant. Because it is on this day that an opportunity is created to introduce the main evolutionary programs for development for the second half of the year. And at all times it was believed that on this day Sirius opens the channels of spiritual insight, sending special energies to the Earth. Sirius on this day will lay many of the foundations for changing the PCC. Packets of energy information will come from the Spiritual Center of our Galaxy, which will make it possible to combine the spiritual impulse of Sirius with the tasks of space-time correction. We have to combine the impulsive impact of Sirius with the previously prepared programs for this correction.
August 18 is the central date for our light work. This day is the most important climax associated with the creation of a new space-time.
August 18, 2016 is the 29th anniversary of the First Harmonic Convergence! Accordingly, this date is directly related to Ganesha, as the God of Time!
According to the Mayan calendar, this is also a very interesting day, because. it combines the First Seal and the 13th Tone (the last).
Seal "Red Dragon" - Birth. Being and Memory. Nutrition.
Open to the energies of Birth and Hope - the highest faith in the omnipotence of being, and let them express themselves in your life. Focus on both self-sufficiency and grateful acceptance of the necessary nourishment from the Universe. Only in this way will life help fulfill your deepest needs. Allow the energy of birth to initiate and bring to life your undertakings.
East initiates, throat chakra.
Motto: I feed the birth of my being with primordial trust.
13 Tone - Cosmic Tone of Presence
Presence. Persistence. Transcendence.
Cooperation enables the Presence to reign. Presence is an invisible force, the basis of all being. To be "here and now" in every moment of your life means to experience the fullness of being. Tone 13 teaches you the power of resilience - to be, no matter what, and gives you that transcendental strength that leads you to new heights.
Yes, not in the eyebrow, but in the eye. The birth of a new one, and this is Ganesha. And also Presence and Transcendence, which I experienced in this meditation.
I will try to deal with the trunk, because this is the brightest detail in the image of Ganesha.
For an elephant, the trunk is his hand, and Ganesha in this case has three arms. Is it connected with the energies of the Three-Handed Icon of the Mother of God, and in general, an additional hand leads to our third hand program, with which we have been working for several years. Here is the third hand of the Mother of God in her icon, and the Hand of God the Father appearing from the cloud on some icons, and the hand of John of Damascus, which was cut off by the Pasha and then grew back, from where the cult of the hand arose, and much more. This is also a manifestation of the Principle of Triality, but what else?
Three hands of Ganesha = 171 = Elephant Head = Keystone
But this is already a very interesting confirmation. In addition, the “keystone” is also calculated by this number. It turns out that it is the thought of three hands that is the key to deciphering the symbol of the trunk. Moreover, the very word "trunk" is calculated as "Source" (see above). 
Another interesting thing. In "Tirumantiram" it is said: "He, the son of Shiva, has five arms, ..". What are five hands? Pay attention, although it is believed that Ganesha has from 2 to 32 hands, but, as a rule, he is depicted with four hands, as in the figure on the left and in all the figures where his symbolism is presented. Moreover, if the Indian gods have several hands, they are always paired, i.e. there are an even number of them, but here there are five? I believe that the trunk is meant here, which is the hand, at least for the elephant.
Further, for an elephant, the trunk is also a nose, and for Ganesha too. Little of, Trunk = Air, and this is a direct indication of the nose. And we know well that the nose is connected with Initiation. No wonder the Ankh - the Key of Eternal Life - was brought to the nose of the initiate, which is depicted on many Egyptian frescoes. So Ganesha's nose is not even simple.
And further trunk = speech, and Ganesha, as mentioned above, also patron saint of sacred speech. Further, we know that the elephant trumpets and he trumpets with his trunk, i.e. the trunk produces sound. Is this not a hint at the First Sound of OM, which created the world and whose pranava is Ganesha.
Lyuba a few years ago gave a very clear image of three hands. There is a door, it has two handles (hands), to open it we use our hand, i.e. third hand. In other words: the third hand can be symbolically regarded as that which opens the Doors of the Spirit. In fact, it turns out that the trunk is a spiritual hand, because it is connected with air and with the First Sound. And in the calculation we immediately receive confirmation of this.
Trunk - Ganesha's spiritual hand = 308 = Perfect reflection - Ganesha calls = Divine Reality = Ascension door open =Key Earth Changes = New Resurrection Program =Star of the One Galactic Brain = Opening the Gates to Eternity = Opening Spiritual Gates = Birth of the Christ Consciousness = Christ energy has come = I AM the door of the Living Christ
So, let's look further, why in the previous calculation there are several phrases indicating the birth of the Christ Consciousness? I singled them out. The figure illustrates what follows very well. The combination of the male and female principle gives rise to something third. In matter it is a child, but we already know well that in the higher worlds this is the third - Consciousness! The combination of two great principles (signs) of the Universe creates CONSCIOUSNESS, i.e. realizing and cognizing the principle of the Universe. And it is Ganesha - the god of Wisdom that is his manifestation, i.e. manifestation of Christ consciousness. Not only calculations indicate this, the Ganesha principle itself confirms this. In fact, Ganesha is the Vedic hypostasis of Christ. No wonder it is the most beloved god in Hinduism. Christ said that only through him can one go to the Father, and the phrase from the calculation is not without reason related to Ganesha: “ I AM the door of the Living Christ»!
So this is the door that the THIRD HAND of Ganesha opens!
Ganesha calls = 108 = Living Head = Elephant = Connection = Connected! = Nature of God
Firstly, 108 is a sacred number in India, it is not without reason that Buddhist rosaries have 108 beads. And secondly, based on 216 (see above), we have the phrases “We started compound» 
and "What is in Heaven, so is on Earth." And the calculation is not only the word "connection", but also "connected"! Makes you think about a lot. 308 is generally my number, because this is the calculated surname, name and patronymic.
Ganesha calls to India = 183 = Great Mission = Reflection - Center = Special door = Door to immortality = Wisdom Road = Magic work = Bringers of fire = Conversation with the Spirit
Call of Ganesha = 90 = Original = God Helios = God of Fire = Word of God !
Ganesha's call heard = 214 = Ganesha calls to Orissa!!! = Theophany in man = Emphasis on immortality = Gate of the Spirit over the Himalayas = Gate of Jesus Christ = Ancient Homeland = Knowledge of the True Self = Our new program = Man from Eternity
The phrases in the calculation are interesting: “The Gate of the Spirit over the Himalayas” and “The Gate of Jesus Christ”. The fact that Ganesha is the hypostasis of Jesus Christ has already been said above, but also the fact that his mother Parvati, which translates as “Mountain”, is the personification of the Himalayas, puts an important emphasis on the number 214. And accordingly, on the phrases: “The call Ganesha heard" and "Ganesha calls to Orissa". Apparently, the path to Orissa was paved for the group and Ganesha himself will lead us, as was the case on the first trip to India.
Connection with Ganesha = 196 = Spiritual consciousness = Light of the Living Christ = Elephant of Indra Aivarat = Reflection - Cosmos = Divine Image = Key to the Source = Key setting = head cleansing = Awaken God in oneself = Manifestation of the Mind of God = Path to the Source = Unity Energy = This is creation
Connection with Ganesha happened = 337 = Attention! Keystone in the center = Sign ((GOD)) = Group Spiritual Alignment = The Power of Spiritual Alchemy = Invitation to the Solar City = Understand the meaning of Eternity = Correspond to the Prototype = It's a magical connection
We have already found out above that the Capstone = Elephant Head. So, in the center of Ganesh, i.e. consciousness which is what we see in the figure above. I was interested in the Sunny City, and I ask:
What is Sun City? = 324 = Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice! = Return to your childhood home = Enter the space of Oneness = Energy of the new reality = This is the Ascension of the planet into light = This Initiation is Ascension
Ganesha opens the door to the Source = 348 = Perfect reflection - the appearance of Ganesha = Emphasis on the number 171 (171 = Elephant Head) = Attention! New program started = Resurrection and Ascension Program = Walk the Path of the Christ Consciousness = Transition to a new octave of Being = The light of consciousness opens the hatch = Three: Will, Love, Wisdom = Three: Father and Son and Holy Spirit = This is the emphasis on the Ascension of man = I believe in you, loving you, Jesus!
Ganesha calls us to follow him, he shows the way - the Path of Christ Consciousness. And the door to this path is opened by Ganesha, i.e. it is opened by our awareness - the wise consciousness, and no one and nothing else can do it, only ourselves!

Ganesha character story
The good-natured man with the head of an elephant is the Indian personification of patience and well-being. He is the first to offer prayers and requests. Ganesha is a kind god, which cannot be said about most of the man's relatives. The patron of those offended and in a difficult situation will protect anyone, even in the face of a formidable one.
History of appearance
The pacified elephant-man belongs to the lowest pantheon of the gods of ancient India. Moreover, Ganesha is often referred to as a manifestation of Shiva (his father) rather than a separate being. The first images of the god date back to the 5th century AD.
Initially, the deity did not exude the usual good nature at all. The first mention of Ganesha is accompanied by the epithet "Creator of obstacles." The legend says that Shiva imposed an important duty on the demigod - to put sticks in the wheels of people. Later, the image was transformed into a "destroyer of all obstacles." Now Ganesha has another task - to clear the path of obstacles for those who ask for it.
The image of the celestial developed and acquired more and more duties. Modern Ganesha is the god of wealth and wisdom, an assistant in any endeavor, the patron of art and writing.
It is generally accepted that the deity came to Vedic culture thanks to the ancient Dravidians (inhabitants of southern India and Pakistan). Gradually, the cult of the deity spread throughout India, partially merging into Buddhism and Shaivism.
In the 6th century, the worship of Ganesha emerged as a separate tradition called "ganapatya". Religion received its greatest influence in the 10th century. It was at this time that famous temples dedicated to the elephant god were erected in India.
True, with all the love of the Hindus for the gluttonous Ganesha, the religious tradition has not received a noticeable spread. To this day, the worship of a demigod is an addition to the core beliefs of Hindus.
Image and legend
The mythology dedicated to Ganesha is full of contradictions. Disagreements are found even in the legend describing the birth of a deity.
The son of Shiva and Parvati was born from a piece of matter. Parvati madly wanted a child, but Shiva swore an oath that he would not become a father for his wife's children. The offended wife made a scandal. In the heat of the quarrel, Shiva tore off a piece of cloth from the clothes and threw it on the chest of his beloved. As soon as the material touched the woman's chest, a miracle happened before the eyes of the spouses - the fabric became a living child.
There is a legend in which the birth of Ganesha is presented in a different light. Parvati did not like it when her husband broke into her chambers without permission. Therefore, the goddess rubbed herself with a special composition, which removed particles of dead skin from the woman. From the resulting substance, the goddess blinded a little man, who came to life from her touch. Since then, Ganesha has guarded the chambers of his mother.
Legends also diverge from where the god of wealth got the head of an elephant. Initially, Ganesha was a beautiful child. Proud parents called all the familiar gods to boast of their son. God Shani - the only one whom the spouses forgot about - appeared on the holiday without an invitation and incinerated the baby's face with a look. Then Parvati put the head of a baby elephant passing by in place of the missing part of the body.
Another legend says that Ganesha's head was deprived by his own father. Shiva was angry with the child, who did not let the deity into the chambers of Parvati, and with a wave of the sword he cut off his son's head. The goddess, who saw the bloody picture, got angry and demanded to correct what she had done. But the child's head was missing somewhere. The quick-tempered Shiva had to attach the head of an elephant to the child's body.
However, appearance never bothered Ganesha. The god of wealth quickly got used to the new head. Due to the passion for the sweet, the deity acquired a huge belly, which harmoniously complemented the unusual image. Four hands complete the picture, each of which symbolizes an important component of the “subtle body” of a person: mind, intellect, ego and superego.
With such a clumsy body, Ganesha successfully fights enemies and performs good deeds. For example, the demigod defeated the demon and the giant Gajamukha, losing one tusk in the process. The enemy turned into an animal, which Ganesha saddled. The elephant-headed man is often depicted riding a rat.
The god of fortune and wisdom is not the only child of divine spouses. Ganesha has a brother Skanda. There is a marked rivalry between relatives. Both brothers wanted to receive the title of "Lord of the Ghans" and manage the mighty army of their father. To resolve the dispute, Shiva offered to arrange a competition - the title will go to the one who first bypasses the entire Universe. Skanda instantly took off and flew away. And Ganesha slowly went around the circle of his parents, because Shiva and Parvati personify the vast Universe. So the god of wealth wiped his nose to the strong god of war.
The father often uses Ganesha for his own purposes. Once Kubera - another god of wealth and jewelry - boasted to Shiva of his own food supplies. Kubera invited Shiva to a feast that even the gods cannot fully eat. The wise Shiva sent Ganesha in his place, who ate not only the dishes prepared for the holiday, but also all the food in the city (the parable "Ganesha and Kubera").
When a demigod is not busy managing his father's army or fighting giants, a man spends his time in the company of his favorites. Lakshmi, Saraswati and Ganesha spend a lot of time together. The divine trio reminds a person that prosperity (Lakshmi) and success (Saraswati) come into life if wisdom and patience (Ganesha) are shown.
However, sometimes the constant neighborhood of deities is explained more prosaically - according to one version, the elephant god is married to both beauties. But in the south of India, they say that Ganesha is a bachelor who will never tie himself in such a bond. And the inhabitants of Bengal are sure that the deity does have a love relationship with a banana tree.
Ganesha in Feng Shui
Ganesha's influence is not limited to India and Hinduism. The demigod is very popular in China and plays an important role in the Taoist practice of Feng Shui. It is believed that the benevolent elephant god is able to bring money. The main thing is to know how and where to place the figurine of the deity.
If the goal of a person is to attract money, then an amulet depicting a god is best placed in the office. The ideal location would be the right side of the desk or the northwest side of the office.
Ganesha will bring no less benefit in the house. The best place for the figurine will be the living room, or the so-called "family zone". When placing the image of Ganesha in the bedroom, a person is guaranteed a calm and sound sleep.
It is important not only to place correctly, but also to charge the demigod. The attributes that charge Ganesha with the right energy are specialized mantras (you need to stroke your stomach when reading) and offerings. Most of all, the elephant god loves gifts in the form of sweets.
- The meaning of the deity's name is "lord of the retinue", or "lord of judgments".
- Before the name of a man, the prefix "shri" is often used. This addition is a sign of respect for the great elephant god.
- Ganesha's favorite dish is rice balls with a sweet filling.
- In the theaters of Kerala, before the start of the performance, mantras dedicated to Ganesha are necessarily read. The doors to the theater are not closed during the performance so that the demigod also enjoys the spectacle.
- Every year, in honor of Ganesha, the Ganesha Chaturthi festival is held, which lasts 10 days. The holiday falls on the fourth day after the new moon of the sixth month (August 19 - September 20).
In Hindu mythology, Ganesha is the god of happiness, wisdom and prosperity, enjoys great honor and respect. The beloved son of Shiva and Parvati is depicted as a well-fed man with the head of an elephant. But he does not at all make a repulsive impression, he has such a friendly expression on his face and he looks with such cunning and cheerful eyes with his small eyes that you involuntarily feel sympathy for him.
Image of god of wisdom
The patron of merchants and businessmen is often depicted with four or more arms, he has a huge round belly and a large mouse sits near his feet. Ganesha, with his tender loving heart and fair attitude towards people, attracts believers from all over the world. He is sometimes called the great elephant, granting the fulfillment of cherished desires.
The mouse sitting at the feet of the god used to be an evil demon, but then Ganesha conquered it and turned it into his servant. She personifies worldly vanity and unrighteous human intentions. Therefore, it is believed that Ganesha can destroy selfishness, vanity, vanity and exorbitant pride in people.
Any part of the body of God has its own sacred meaning:
- The head represents good intentions and prudent resolution of all problems,
- Huge ears show the ability to hear everyone who only turns to him with prayers,
- The tusk is a symbol of strength and power,
- The long and curved trunk shows the extraordinary mind and ingenuity of God,
- And a big belly is a symbol of abundance and generosity, the ability to live in harmony with the Universe.
Legends about the appearance of Ganesha
Parvati, passionately loving her husband, the great god Shiva, really wanted to have a son. She prayed to Vishnu to grant her a child. When the baby was born, all the gods gathered for a great feast. Among them was Shani, capable of incinerating all living things with his eyes. He just looked at the boy and his head turned to ashes. Then Shiva ordered to bring any first met animal, it was an elephant, and put his head to his son.
Another legend tells that Shiva, in a fit of rage, tore off and threw away his son's head with his own hands, and the servants sent later could not find it anywhere. Parvati was in a terrible rage and told her husband that he would not enter her chambers until he corrected his deed. And then Shiva put the head of his beloved elephant to his son.
There is also a legend that the once beautiful Parvati fashioned a clay figurine of a guard boy and placed it at the door to her chambers. On his way to his wife's bedroom, Shiva stumbled over this figurine and beheaded her in anger. But observing the grief of his beloved woman, he revived the boy, giving him an elephant's head.
There is a rather amusing legend about Ganesha's gluttony. Believers believe that God is extremely fond of corn balls with a sweet filling. One day he overate this delicacy and set off on his mouse. On the way, they met a snake, the mouse was very frightened and jumped aside, and Ganesha, unable to hold on to it, fell, and all the eaten balls spilled out of his mouth. But plump Ganesha did not lose his head, but collected and poured all the sweets he found into his mouth. And he tied up his stomach with a snake he met on the way.
Thus, it is believed that, like this snake, God will pacify all the evil in the world.
