with Sri Ganesh

Luminous paths Intertwined At A harmonious junction From which All dimensions can be accessed, And in which They are all represented -

And there you are, A figure of welcome, With fire and milk And Radiant tenderness…

Aum.

... Shyama from the Ashram has brought a family of devotees from Delhi, a couple and their three children, celebrating their 25 th wedding anniversary; they have come with offerings of fruit and garlands, along with flowers from Sri Aurobindo’s room and a box of sweets, and they also offer Rs. 500/-. They appear to be happy…

In contrast, another, large family of visitors asks for darshan of Sri Ganesh and troops around the shrine noisily and soon leaves…

Sri Ganesh today appears, Marked with the White Shakti’s Crown, To be seated mid-way On the great stairs, Festively surrounded With all the offerings deposited Constantly By the journeyers Of the Lord –

Descending, ascending, Seeking each Their own true way –
