MADHYA PRADESH, INDIA, September 1, 2005: The scientific>community's view that

God does not exist has been questioned again by hardcore>believers following a

miracle at Gwalior's Pipaleshwar Temple where tears came>rolling down from the

eyes of a Deity of Lord Ganesha, the elephant-headed God of>well-being and

wisdom. According to Lila Devi, the priest of the temple, the>miracle occurred

on Wednesday evening . "At 6 o'clock when the people came to>lit a lamp they

saw tears in the eyes of Ganesha. At first, they were>confused whether they

should tell about it or not but then they told about it. Since>then, people in

large numbers are coming to see," said Lila Devi. Residents>of Gwalior feel

that science has no relevance in the face of this miracle.>"When I was

returning from the shop in the evening at 8:30, I saw the crowd>near the

temple. The people told me that Lord Ganesha was crying. I took out

my>handkerchief and wiped his tears. Then I saw a drop of tear fell on

my>finger. In this modern world, science will fail before this miracle," said K

C>Makheja, a resident. Devotees in large number thronged the temple which is

nearly>50 years old. They think that it is a good omen and prayers have

been>conducted. Looking at the crowd thronging the temple, police have been

deployed to>maintain peace and order.>>>>[This message contained
