Ganesha's Mouse

[Guest guest]

Namaste ALL,

 

You'll often see a small mouse darting around Ganesha's feet. Like

cowboys riding their ponies and Californians riding their SUVs,

Ganesha goes for a ride on his mouse. Gurus explain that the mouse

is the human mind, always scurrying here and there, nibbling at this

and that. The mouse doesn't realize that riding on its back there's

an elephant with unimaginable strength, wisdom and power. Just so,

the mind is often oblivious to the limitless light and power of

spirit that "rides around" within its inner recesses.
