Saluting and invoking Sri Ganesh

The Rasa and the Atma Of its potent existence – Thus wrapped

In a heaving, weaving motion, Brimming with warmth and color, You seem to reach out, Invite and embrace, A living, glowing promise Of delight… (10-12-10)

* 11-35

Today Sri Ganesh You seem to be seated On a raised dais Among the crowds Of the Great Court – You hold no title And claim no dominance - The universal grace Of your being, The clear-sightedness Of your knowledge, The auspicious friendliness Of your figure = These inspire and draw Every force and every soul To lay about you Their hopes and their offerings –

And thus the dais On which you sit Is radiant with Tender light, Sweet fire, And

An abundance Of blessings… Aum. (10-01-11)
