See extremely SHOCKING video of Ganesh immersion ! WHY PAINED and SHOCKED ?

[Guest guest]

A beautiful symbolic representation of the dynamic verity of all life

forms, including the divine that pervades through the universe as

depicted in the rituals and combinatorial chemistry (in nature) as

well as in reincarnation, the foundation over which Jyotish rests so

firmly!

Dear RR Ji,

As usual, this village dumbo has not understood your post. But as I used to do in 60 's when watching Angrezi movies, LAUGH WHEN EVERYONE LAUGHS (if you do not understand any dialogue), I think you must have said only good things in connection with my posting (LOL).

Thanks for the techsupport.

Dear Tatvamasi ji,

 

I was commenting on the beauty of symbolism. From jagran/prana

pratishtha to visarjan, the religious-pooja-celebration rituals

depict the story of life and living. From conception to death, what

happens in human lifetime is what is essentially the scriptural

stories indicate. Human bodies take birth, live, then die, just as

each year idols are created from earth/clay made to come alive

through the belief, shraddha and human touch (of the sculptor, then

the priest, aided by the bhakti-belief energy of the devotees) only

to be returned to the elements, then reborn again the next year.

 

What is so complicated about that, Sir :-)

dear readers,

this immersion of idols in lakes with all the paint

and chemicals in it will definitely pollute the

drinking water if the lake is a source of drinking

water. If it is immersed in the sea it doesnt affect.

In my childhood days i have never seen such giant size

idols getting immersed. More so in our place ie south

india vinayaka chathurthi was a celeberation done at

home and the next day the idol made of clay will be

immersed in the well outside the house. but for the

last ten years this has become a great tamasha with

loud music blarring and i find devotees seem to

appreciate more noise rather than silent devotion

towards bhakthi marga. It is really painful to see the

deterioration towards bhakthi.
