Salute to Lord Vinayaka, the bestower of all material and spiritual strength. A great tribute. CP

The reason to go around his parents is actually different. It was to have the fruit that the bet was conducted. As Indians we already know about the theme. Gods do not require the help of animals and creatures to reach every nook and corner of the universe. It has a different symbolic representation. The main idea behind our gods choosing birds, animals and creatures as their vehicles is to seek our empathy and love towards these creatures. If Ganesh did not use the rat as his vehicle, how many more rats would have been killed? If Lord Vishnu did not use the serpant as his bed, how many more snakes would have been killed? This is the basic idea. Special symbolism can be found out according to one's philsophy and interpretation but definitely gods never require their assistance to reach every nook and corner of the world.

In few words you could tell this story Lakshi! Amazing composition. 'thath purushaya vidmahe Vakrathundaya dheemahi Thannoo Danthi prachodayathu' Let Lord Ganesh shower his blessings on you.

a ride on the mouse to every nook and corner without being seen.. a lord of prosperity and peace.... always praised inevery home..it is beautiful write and deserves well earned.....10

A choice of a wife is always veiled in divinity guiding, your words convey your thoughts in Gods ploy which only comes from deep inside, regards

A meaningful poem, sam; very concise and precise!

I find another 'Thiruvilayadal' picture is portrayed here, when I read this poem on Ganpathi. Here, in Mumbai, Siddhi Vinayakar is guarding the city through out the year.

good write thanks, .........

Lord Ganesha is the combination of Animal, Man and Divine all in one to symbolize that God is everything! Nice thing to think about our God on this auspicious occasion! Thanks for sharing your ideas!
