Lord Ganesha, the Elephant God, is not only the Lord of Beginnings and Remover of Obstacles, but also a teacher.........

 


Lord Ganesha, the Elephant God, is not only the Lord of Beginnings and Remover of Obstacles, but also a teacher if you pay close attention to the legends of Hindu scriptures. Also known as Ekdanta, his anecdotes form an integral part of Hindu scriptures and impart great life lessons to his followers. We can all learn a thing or two about life from his legends.
Always stand up for your self-respect -
Legend has it that once, all the gods and goddesses left Lord Ganesha in-charge of the Swargalok, as they left with Lord Vishnu's marriage procession headed towards Goddess Laxmi's abode. Lord Ganesha was tricked into taking care of Swargalok, because the other deities were embarrassed of his physical appearance and massive diet.
When he came to know the truth, Lord Ganesha wanted to avenge himself, and devised a clever plan that would make them realise his importance. Ganesha sent his rat-vehicle, Gajasur, to dig up the roads that led to Goddess Laxmi's abode, and he obeyed.
As expected, the deities couldn't proceed further, and called for help. A farmer who was crossing by the road decided to help the deities, and pulled out the carriage stuck in the road in the first attempt after chanting Lord Ganesha's name.
He explained how only Lord Ganesha's name could have induced the strength in him to lift the carriage, since he is the Remover of Obstacles. This made the deities realise that there's more to a being than his physical appearance, and they returned to offer their apologies to Lord Ganesha.
Lord Ganesha's story is a lesson to never let anyone undermine your abilities, or your physical appearance cloud people's judgement of you. When you’re setting goals or seeking wisdom as you pursue them—call upon Ganesha as your guide.
Ganesha can be especially helpful for: Any big or small endeavour in which you want to succeed. Seeking wisdom before making a big decision Or Any situation where an obstacle is preventing you from success.! 🐘🍃🕉🌷🐚📿💟🔔🐘🌈🍃🕉🍂🌻
