One-Tusk

[Guest guest]

The mountain behind Ganesh? That's where Shiva lives. The murthi? It's a

little statue that came my way this week. Thai, I believe. It fascinates me

in that G is shown in the posture one normally expects of Hanuman, but they get

the one-tusk part absolutely right. Many Ganesh images screw this up.

This little bronze guy is about to be treated royally...I have a special Tibetan

reliquary wherein he'll reside. The only open question is which set of rune

stones I'll fill it with. In the meantime, he's waving (in the quantum sense)

like mad...and we've been gettin it on all evening.

RESPECTED SHREE SCOTT,

 

 

"I don't know if the mantra is canonical or not; "ekadanta"

means "one tusk" and is one of G's names. I gather that "-ye" is a

Sanscrit name ending to indicate the vocative case; i.e., I made the

mantra up but it may just be utterly in synch with tradition...and I

would appreciate confirmation or correction from our Hindu buddies"

 

******** HEYYY cmon , stop pulling our legs you know it its very

much right mantra !! grrrrrrrrrr well roughly "EKDANTAAYE" means the

one with one tusk , as to reasons of one tusk or stories revolving

around it are many so no use going over that , lol! oh yeah , i

recall , also "OM Ain(g) EKDANTAAYE NAMAH " is also another mantra

(with another variation with samputa of OM Aing ie " Om Aing

Ekdantaaye Namah Aing OM " ) are the two variations of the mantra

which are considered to be knowledge giving , they are mainly given

to young school children which is said that if they recite

regularly , would help them learn things faster . well , then neways

normally one can derive different results from one single mantra by

just varying the initial beej mantra or samputas.And anyways , who

knows better then you or SY that mantras formed by oneself are

always much more powerful as they already have connection direct to

our own energy .

& hey man , who hindus are u talking of ? i think the guys on the

west side are more hindus in these grps then the ones on east (well ,

for me hinduism is no religion )
