with Sri Ganesh

The elder, later, comes once to do pranam and a second time to have darshan of Sri Ganesh after the Aarti - he offers Rs. 10/-. And a short and fat lady, later still, comes in to break a fresh coconut before Sri Ganesh…

Sri Ganesh, You seem to be poised As a large Breath of Light –

Crowned with the calm inner flame, Pulsating with tenderness And the finest gifts –

Wide and safe Is your welcoming embrace –

And within that Breath Lies the treasure, The detailed intricacy Of Infinity…

Aum.

Sri Ganesh, Dancing Knight of the Mother And Great Purohit, Your sacrifice is plentiful With vibrant opulence, And it brims With the milk of the Grace And its roseate glow –

Your motion is measured And generous

As you proceed with The nourishing act –

Under your office Agni is proud
