Hence Ganesha is considered to be the Main and Supreme Diety in performing any Rituals,Mariages,Cermonies, starting a new business,home, studies etc by Hindus. It is also saying that by worshiping Ganesha they also get blessings from Shiva(Shankara)  and Parvathi(Umadevi)  who are the parents of Maha Ganapathi.

In his hands he carries weapons like Paasu (to carry devotees to the truth) Ankush ( hook to take action against demons, cut devotees atachments) and a sweet dessert ball -laddoo (to reward devotees for spiritual activity). His fourth hand’s palm is always extended to bless people. He is the presiding Deity of the Muladhara Chakra, the psychic centre in the body in which the Kundalini Shakti resides.

Ganesha is worshipped with  other prominent names like Vinayaka, Vigheshvara, Ekadanta, Maha- Ganapathi, Gajanana, Gajakarnaka, Lambodara, Vignaraja, , Gajanana, Vinayaka, Vakratunda, Siddhivinayaka, Surpakarna, Heramba, Skandapurvaja, Phalachandra, Kapila and Vigneshwara. He is also known by many as Maha Ganapthi and his devotees reciete the mantra “Om Gung Ganapathaye Namah” or “Sri Ganeshaya Namah”.  Ganesha is resited or appered on the mouse hence he is called with  the names of Mushikavahana (mouse-mount) which is appears in the Ganesha Sahasranamas.

Maha-Ganesha Sloka and Mantra :

Ganesha is refered as Dukh harata(the one who destroys all sorrow), Sukh karata( the one who gives happiness) Vigna harata( the one who destroys all evil and all obstacles). Before any  Rituals  performed, or any new work is started, the following sloka is recieted  as

 Avighnam Kurumey deva Sarva karyeshu sarvadha.”  

Gayathri Ganesh Mantra: 

“Om Ekadantaya Vidmahe
Vakratundaya Dheemahi
Tanno Danti Prachodayaat”

Birth of Maha Ganesh : 

There are many stories in Puranas, Vedas and also in Hindu mythology about the birth of Ganesha and also how he got his elephant head. Some texts in purans say that Ganesha  was born with elephant  and in most stories he acquired his head later. One of the story is that when Ganesha was born, his mother, Umadevi, showed off her new baby to the other gods and the god Shani (Saturn), who is said to have the evil eye, looked at him, causing the baby’s head to be burned to ashes. Then Lord Maha-Vishnu came to rescue and replaced the missing head with that of an elephant.

But the most popular one in Vedas, Puranas and hindu Mythology is that Paravathi devi(Umadevi) made human boy with head and body ,and also order him to see no one enters when Lord Shiva came to meet Paravathi, Ganesha refused and Lord Shiva in anger cut  ganesha’s head with his trishul and later replaced it with an elephant head and also given some of his powers by which Ganesh has became the Supreme Diety of Hindus. It has become a ritual, in every Temple Ganasha Murthi (statue) being established and  performed pujas.

Janmastami  which is also celebrated as Gokulastami (Krishnastami) is the major annual festival for Vaisnavas. The festival is celebrated on Astami Thidi which takes place in August or early September. Traditionally devotees fast until midnight, until the hour of Lord Krishna’s appearance ( Midnight 12 ) spending the time by performing devotional activities in honour of this most auspicious occasion.

• His eternal blissful pastimes in His own home, Vrndavana. This is the essential religious sentiment and mood of Janmastami.

Chanting of Krishna Mantra:  

“Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare 
  Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare”

“In this age of Kali, there is no alternative, there is no alternative, there is no alternative for spiritual progress other than the chanting of the holy name, the chanting of the holy name, the chanting of the holy name of the Lord.”   

Whenever you chant this mantra, always keep its meaning in  mind. Chant this mantra with devotion and faith . While repeating his mantra request the God almighty to take away all your sorrows, pains and failures and give you joy and bliss.  You can chant it anytime, anywhere.

Offerings and Leelas of Lord Kirshna:

Sri Krishna Jayanti is celebrated with plenty of sweets like  laddus (yellu oonde), chakli, cheedai, payasam (kheer), and  plenty of milk products especially butter, which was Sri Krishna’s favorite childhood food, are given in offerings. A wide variety of fruits are also offered. The most common sweets made laddus and payasam.

Great indeed are his many Leelas several sages and seers have paid homage to him. Narada, Sri Kulashekara Azhwar, Andal, Tirumangai Azhawar, Nammazhwar have sung glorious verses in praise of Lord Krishna who embodies Shudda Satvam. The Bhagavad Gita coming from the Lord is the absolute truth which has withstood the test of time and has formed the basis and inspiration for many Acharyas and Azhwars.

The life and message of Sri Krishna is the most stirring saga of one of the greatest saviours and propounders of Dharma. Born in the dungeons of Kansa who was out to kill him at the very moment of his birth, Sri Krishna’s life is replete with many such mortal dangers which he successfully triumphs over. He was the unchallenged hero of his times both in terms of his bodily prowess and his intellectual brilliance.

Sri Krishna Jayanti, therefore, signifies not merely the birth of a great and Divine Teacher of mankind in some distant past but the lighting of the spark of the Divine Power in every one of us, which spurs us on to play our dynamic part in this world of practical and hard realities with a sense of high spiritual purpose. Krishna represents the total power of attraction (Aakarshna Shakti) like a magnet of infinite rise. Hence Krishna is the source of joy.

May Lord Krishna Bless You all. Happy Janmastami

By Swami Ramachandra
Translated by P.R.Ramachander

Sri Swaminatham sura brunda vandhyam,
Bhooloka bhakthan paripalayantham,
Sri sahya jatheera nivasa nabdham,
Vande guham tham guru roopinam Na.

Salutations to Guha in the form of a teacher,
Who is Swaminatha worshipped by all devas,
Who takes care of devotees of the earth,
And who lives in shore of river starting from Western Ghats.

Sri Swaminatham bishajam varenyam,
Soundarya gambheerya vibhooshitham tham,
Bhaktharthi vidhravana deekshitham tham.,
Vande guham tham guru roopinam Na.

Who is Swaminatha, the greatest doctor,
Who has a handsome and regal look,
And who has the firm aim of solving devotee’s problems.

Sri Parvathi jani guru swaroopam,
Sri Veerabhadrathi ganai samedham,
Vande guham tham guru roopinam Na.

Who sat as the teacher to the consort of Parvathi,

Vidhyadharaditha pada padmam,
Aaho payoveevatha nithya thruptham,
Vande guham tham guru roopinam Na.

Sri Ramachandrena kruthathma sudhyai,
Sri swaminadhasyahi shad patheeyam,
Ji yathadheeya priyadhayini sri.

This is composed by Ramachandra,
The disciple of the saint Ramakrishna,
And is a sextet praising Lord Swaminatha,
And would devotees reciting it dear to him.

From Maha Narayana Upanishad – Translated by P. R. Ramachander

This is a prayer to the fire God Agni occurring in the Maha Narayana Upanishad. Durga is used here as a word for Difficult problems in almost all the stanzas. The salutation to Durga is given only in the second stanza. (But many people consider this as prayer to goddess Durga for removing all obstacles and evils.)

1. Jatavedase sunavama soma marathee yatho nidhahadhi veda,
Sa na parshadathi durgani viswa naaveva sindhum durithathyagni

Our oblations of Soma to the fire god,May he, the all knowing one destroy all those who do not like us,May that divine fire lead us out of all perils,Like a captain takes his boat across the sea,And also save us from all wrongs.

2 .Thaam agni varnaam thapasa jwalanthim vairochanim karma phaleshu jushtam,
Durgam devim saranamaham prapadhye, sutharasi tharase nama.

I take refuge in the divine mother Durga*,Who shines like a fire due to her penances,Who resides in actions and their fruits and makes them effective,And I salute her who helps us cross our difficulties.* It could be translated as Mother of difficulties also.

3. Agne thwam paaraya navyo asmaan swasthibhirathi durgani viswa,
Pushscha prithwi bahula na urvee bhava thokaaya thanayaya shamyoh.

Oh God of fire, you are worthy of praise,For by novel methods you help us cross,The difficulties and make us happy,May our land in this earth become extensive,May the land for growing crops become large,And be pleased to join our children and,Their children with joy and happiness.

4. Vishvaani no durghaa jathaveda sindhunaa nava durithathi parshi,
Agne athrivan manasaa grina no asmakam bodhayithwa thanoo naam.

Oh Jatha Vedas who is the destroyer of all sins,Make us cross all our troubles like a boat,Which takes us to the other shore without problems,Oh Fire, protect us like the sage Athri, who would take care of us,Mindful of our safety and our happiness.

5. Prithana jitham saha mana mugram agnim huvema paramath sadhasthath,
Sa na parshadathi durgani viswa kshamaddhevo athi durithatyagni.

We invoke the fierce Fire God who is the leader of us all.And who is the killer of all our enemies from the highest place,To take us across all difficulties and all that is perishable and protect us.

6. Prathnoshika meedyo adhvareshu sanacha hota navyascha sadhsi,
Swacha agne piprayaswa asmabhyam cha soubhahya maya jaswa.

Oh Fire God, you are praised during sacrifices,And always increase our happiness, and exist as sacrifices,Which are olden and those which are new,Please make us, who are only yourself, happy,And grant us good fortune from all our sides.

7. Gobhir jushta mayujo nishithktham thavendra vishnor anusancharema,
Naa kasya prushtam abhisamvasaano vaishnavim loka iha madhayantham.

Oh Lord, you are not connected with sin and sorrow,Permit us to always serve you who pervades all wealth,May the Gods who live in the highest region make me,Who adores Vishnu, delighted and happy and grant my wishes

Durga Navratri – the name signifies the festival celebrated for nine nights which is dedicated to Universal Divine Mother or Maa Shakti. The Goddess is being worshipedin this navarathri  from ancient aryans to  till today in India. 

Myths and Stories of Durga Navratri :

There are several myths, stories and legends about the celebrations of Durga Navratri. ‘Mahishasura Vadha’ (Demolition of Mahishasura by Durga) is the most popular among all the myths.

Mahishasura Vadha – Demolition of the Demon King :

A demon king, Mahishasura worshipped Lord Shiva and got the boon of eternity that his death should be at the hands of a woman and by no other human being or any form of living-being. Then, he started to harass and kill the innocent people and saints. All the people prayed to Trimurthi (Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshwara) to get rid of Mahishasura. The three supreme gods united their supreme powers and created a divine energy called Durga Mata or Shakti, the Warrior Goddess.Seeing the Divine beauty Maa Durga, Mahishasura got mesmerized and asked her to marry him. Maa Durga agreed to marry him but she kept one condition that he should win over her in a fight. Mahishasura accepted the condition. The fight continued for 9 nights and at the end of ninth night, Durga Mata demolished Mahishasura. Hence on 10th Day people celbrate  as “Vijaya Dasami ”

Worshipping of Durga By Lord Rama :

One of the myths behind the celebrations of Navratri states that Lord Rama who wanted to bring back Sita from the cruel clutches of demon king Ravana, worshipped Goddess Durga in nine various aspects for nine consecutive days to get all the the strengths and the powers to kill Ravana. Later on, those nine nights became popular as Navaratri. On the tenth day (Vijaya Dashami), Lord Rama killed Ravana.

Story of Godesses Sati :

The king of Himalayas, King Daksha had a beautiful daughter Uma. Uma wants to marry Lord Shiva and prayed to him and pleased him and god married to Lord Shiva. Once her parents conducted a yagna, for that she visited her parents and got insulted by her father. With that sudden incident, she jumped into the agnikund and united with the eternity. Thereafter, she is also called as Sati.  Sati was reborn again as Parvathi and married Lord Shiva in that birth also. She was very happy in that birth and at last peace was restored between her and her parents. It is said that Goddess Sati goes to her parents every year for nine days and during that period devotees celebrate the fest of Navaratri
