Guest guest Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 Dear All, I have a close connection with lord Ganesha from some years.Have also collected many Idols of Lord Ganesha and sometimes get gifts of idols. Presently in Nigeria and during my visist to an old factory for official purpose i came see a nice big marbel idol of lord ganesha. I WISH TO KEEP THE IDOL. Many friends around have asked not to keep that idol as its not good. The idol is intact with no flaws / breakages on the face , hand, legs . But a slight chip of the weapon held in the hand of the lord. I wish to do pooja and keep the same in my house as i strongly believe its a gift from god himself and will do no harm to me and my family. Request the learned to advise me on the same and also what is the simple procedure to purify the idol. Thanks & regards, Anoop Satyan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Only thing you need is Shraddha (faith). That purifies the form you cherish to worship. Recite few shlokas you may know or Gayathri mantra to Ganesha. Offer some flowers, incense, fruits or some preparations. Marble does not stand panchamRta abhishekam well. May be you can just wipe it with some wet cloth or paper. Make sure you dry it with dry cloth or paper. dAsan K.S. tAtAchAr.
