Guest guest Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 Hello Gaurav: I didn't say that your description was incorrect. I said that there is an additional description floating around which I posted and which could be an incorrect description. I've already said that my definition is folklore, not an absolute truth. Let's hope the experienced, older and wiser members know more about Uchhista Ganapati and share their wisdom with us. Isn't internet great!!! So much information can be exchanged by so many people in so little time. Mukund , "Gaurav Sharma" <gauravkom> wrote: > Hello Mukund, > > The description of Ucchista Ganesha is pretty correct.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 Hello Mukund, I also meant the additional desciption. In fact there is a song "nariyonimukhasvadane" in the kamavardhini/ ramakriya krti. This song is clearly in praise of and contains a detailed description of ucchista ganapati.
