Learn How to Trust in Ganesha

 

Gansesha has been with me in a very strong way ever since his birthday. He wants me to make video clips every day. I have thought about this, but I have not made a promise, as I need to take into consideration all my other commitments. I have responded to Ganesha with this reply. “You have inspired me to do this and I will. I trust you will find me the time.” I agreed to make frequent videos on subjects which inspire me but I did not promise to make them every day.

Ganesha is Different from Other Gods

One Ganesha I am going to talk about is ‘Unfailing Ganesha’. This is a very interesting aspect, for Gods usually do what they want. They do not provide things just because we ask for them. They have their own reasons for why they do or do not respond. But Ganesha is very different. He is an unfailing Ganesha. In Tamil he is called Poiya Ganapati. Poiya means never failing. In essence, you can trust in Ganesha.

The God with Two Great Qualities

People who live in Tamil Nadu can find Ganesha in quite a few temples, but one temple which I think is very sacred for ‘Unfailing Ganesha’ is Vayalur.  Vayalur is a place near Trichy where Ganesha’s brother Muruga has a shrine. Ganesha’s presence can be felt here.

He has two outstanding qualities:

  • He never fails.
  • If there is a doubt, he will miraculously clear that doubt away.

If a person does not know whether to go this way or that, a discomfort known as ‘cognitive dissonance’ arises. I have talked about this in other videos. Ganesha dispels cognitive dissonance (the inability to decide on the right thing to do when confronted with too many choices to the same question). So I will continue to make videos for Ganesha and they will be recorded as/when they happen.
