with Sri Ganesh

... Parthy has offered 4 large coconuts fresh from his land...

Sri Ganesh, Wrapped with the serpents of light, Seated amongst the fruits Of the deep earth, You appear At the timeless junction Of all times, When the milk-white glow Was the first density Of Matter, To become its sap and plasm And water,

Nourishment and renewal, The new weight of energy, And the field Of contraries... You appear, seated, With your earthy attendants, Centered in Your knowledge of the way, The way from division To Progressive harmony...

... The sun-rays are fierce and the garden is dull and wilting... A baby bird is seated on the porch of the shrine when I arrive, black with a yellow beak which opens wide when I touch it; it cannot have fallen from a nest, as there is no tree directly above the step of the threshold, yet it is just in the center of the space below the door and has been there a while, judging from the stain on the marble; I move it out of the sun and give it water and some grains of rice, but it only takes the water... ... Praveen attends part of the puja and the Aarti and then he meditates a long time; he offers Rs. 200/-
