Blessings on Ganesh Chaturthi, the birthday celebration of Lord Ganesh (also Ganesha), one of the most well-known and venerated representations of God within the Vedic tradition. As the epitome of knowledge and wisdom, Ganesh is the deva (god) of arts and sciences. He is the lord of the hosts, the guardian of primordial cosmic energy (kundalini shakti), the remover of obstacles, and the patron of astrologers and authors. His holy festival is observed this year on Tuesday, August 30 in North and South America, Africa, and Europe; and on Wednesday, August 31 in India/Asia and Australasia. The Drik Panchang has more specific timings.
SALUTATIONS to Lord Ganesh who is Brahman Himself, who is the Supreme Lord, who is the energy of Lord Shiva, who is the source of all bliss, and who is the bestower of all virtuous qualities and success in all undertakings. Take fresh spiritual resolves today and pray to Lord Ganesh for inner spiritual strength to attain success in all your undertakings. May the blessings of Sri Ganesh be upon you all! May He remove all the obstacles that stand in your spiritual path! May He bestow on you all material prosperity as well as liberation! Om Sri Ganeshaya Namah! (Swami Sivananda)
