with Sri Ganesh

while to loosen it and pull it out, even with the help of Muthu who, riding by and seeing me struggling, gets down to help and, later, even AV Murthy joins in... So I am again late for the puja... ... Rs. 20/- have been offered...

Sri Ganesh, You are seated,

A benevolent, attentive King, You wear the crown of Light And the ground before you Is also lit, But your expression is That of a brother, A companion, Intent on serving – In your mysterious ways –

Aum Ganeshaaya...

Sri Ganesh, Knight of the Mother, You pace your rounds, Sent by Her In Her Compassion, You wear Her Crown And gaze at all There is, And sometimes you smile And sometimes your mien Is severe –

You pace your rounds On the borders Of Her Domains, You are Her Guardian And Emissary, Sweet Ganesha
