Guest guest Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 We have met our initial targets for the repetition of the mantra and the Ganesh Atharvashirsham. Good job everyone ! However, the big day is tomorrow - Ganesh's birthday aka Ganesh Chaturthi. According to Parvati (the disciple not the Goddess) , most of Chaturthi is tomorrow and ends early Saturday morning. Hope she will post later today to confirm the times, but atleast for the Bay area the Chathurthi starts tomorrow, and I expect it to be off only by a few hours for those in the western hemisphere. Ganesh is associated with RED color - a deep dark red. He also loves sweets , especially modaks - remember the recipe posted by Parvati earlier. So lets all continue this great bhava and keep our chanting alive all day tomorrow. Hope many of us will be able to do a puja to Ganesh and offer him RED flowers, RED cloth etc. Here is the stat as of 3 pm on 16th Sept. LETS KEEP GOING EVERYONE !!! JAI GANESH !
