with Sri Ganesh

Fluent and vibrant through all times, Sri Ganesh, And with a tranquil yet piercing Elegance Your gestures reach the heart Unerringly – And at your hand is the three-eyed Fruit Of the material Shakti And the ground about you Is laid With today’ offerings –

A link, a bridge, A passage –

Let there be, Sri Ganesh, Clearance for the flow Of the sap of progress At the Lord’s Feet… Aum.

… A contractor from Edayachavadi, Murthy, whom Arun has selected to do the work here, has come to meet me and see with me the exact way I want to rebuild the wall; then he went to the Land Service office to sign the letter of agreement – bureaucracy in full swing!...

Sri Ganesh, In every temple and every home, Watching every road And a protector of fertile fields, One and unique Yet invited everywhere, You stand free, Unequalled, Strong with the Shakti’s Own blood and light,
