Notes: 1. The significance of gaNesha is beautifully explained in this hymn. This also very cleanly explains why gaNapathi worship is taken up first before starting the pUjA of the Supreme Lord shiva. 2. Note the words "vara aruLinan" and also notice the words, "oru thiru murugan van^dhAN^gu 'udhiththanan' " in kandha purANam. 3. piDi - female elephant, kari - male elephant, iDar - hurdles ===== --------------------------- Visit Shaivism Home Page at http://www.shaivam.org --------------------------- I said I gave my body - became far off from guru's teachings I said I gave my mind - became far off from the linga I said I gave my wealth - became far off from the devotees There is nothing more disasterous than the disaster I got ito by saying "I did for You", kUDalasangamadEva ! - basavaNNa Great stuff seeking new owners in Auctions! http://auctions.
