Guest guest Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 Lord Ganesha rolls down tears http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/7242_1478959,00180021.htm Asian News International, Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh), September 1, 2005 The scientific community's view that God does not exist has been questioned again by hardcore believers following a miracle at Gwalior's Pipaleshwar Temple where tears came rolling down from the eyes of a diety of Lord Ganesha, the elephant-headed God of well-being and wisdom. According to Lila Devi, the priest of the temple, the miracle occured on Wednesday evening. " At 6 o'clock when the people came to lit a lamp they saw tears in the eyes of Ganesha. At first, they were confused whether they should tell about it or not but then they told about it. Since then, people in large numbers are coming to see, " said Lila Devi. Residents of Gwalior feel that science has no relevance in the face of this miracle. " When I was returning from the shop in the evening at 8:30, I saw crowd near the temple. The people told me that Lord Ganesha was crying. I took out my handkerchief and wiped his tears. Then I saw a drop of tear fell on my finger. In this modern world, science will fail before this miracle, " said K C Makheja, a resident. Devotees in large number thronged the temple which is nearly 50 years old. They think that it is a good omen and prayers have been conducted. Looking at the crowd thronging the temple, police have been deployed to maintain peace and order. A few years ago, Lord Ganesha was reported as having drunk milk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
