Ganesh Chaturthi Celebrations: Day 7 | Ganpati Pandal Darshan | Sethji or The Rich Ganesha:
We know Ekdanta, the single-toothed, one-tusked God.
We know Vakratunda, the curved-trunk God.
We know Vighnaharta, the Remover-of-obstacles God.
... Today ...
Let's meet the Nideeshwaram, the wealth-and-riches God,
A blooming flower to perfume the garden of your life?
Or, the echoing gong sound to wash over your worries... ?
He's got it ALL!
Instinctively, I called Him Sethji... or The Rich Ganesha,
The wealthy merchant,
Always ready to share His many riches and gifts,
Sacred Gifts that include packets of knowledge and wisdom...
To illumine our darkened Path
and spark our weary soul.
PS.: This year, come along with me for Ganesh Pandal darshan from Mumbai on My Yatra Diary... visiting the very friendly Ganesha, peeping into one pandal each day.
