This is Kusum’s passing day, 7 years ago.

I have just ended the Aarti when Chamanlal and his wife arrive with Vipul’s wife (Kusum’s daughter-in-law), who has brought offerings of fruit, coconuts, flowers and incense, along with Rs. 100/-. She sits a long time in prayer.

Sri Ganesh, Your freedom is deep and vast As you belong To Her alone,, And from its mystery You appear And let your figure be The carrier of the offerings, The bearer of the tools, The messenger of the blessings, The herald and the channel And the brother And friend – And through this generous act Of liberty Every prayer entrusted to you Becomes More true – How comforting is your beauty And Integrity While all offerings are gathered
