with Sri Ganesh

… While I am preparing for the puja, M. comes again, with a bunch of flowers and a cluster of dark grapes, and offers Rs. 10/. It is not quiet; it feels like a punch in the chest.

But I have to see my own negativity as well – my limitations in the movement of offering.

Today, Sri Ganesh, You are Magnificent, As if a great majestic instrument On which the Lord Plays the music of His That wideness and splendor Your simple figure stands Like a door Leading To Her Grace – Sri Ganesh, Luminous Riches Are cascading, An abundance and a flow Universes, And within

Of increase As you pace The Lord’s Way.

… As I am watering parts of the garden after the puja, M. comes in and offers a few bananas, one hibiscus flower and Rs. 10/- to Sri Ganesh and leaves right away.

Sri Ganesh, With you and in you Loyalty Is so entire,

It has become Transparence: Loyalty to Her,
