Do you know the story behind this ie as to why Lord Shiva ordained that its necessary to chant and worship Ganesha at the time of commencement of puja etc? Both Kartikeya and Ganesha were competing with each other as to who will first complete three rounds of the world and come back to Lord Shiva and Maa Parvati.Karthikeya went ahead to complete the three rounds while Ganesha took three rounds of Lord Shiva and Maa Parvati and then offered obeisances to them. On being asked by them he said that you are the world.So Lord Shiva said-whoever commences any auspicious activity must remember your name ie worship you if they want the work to be completed without any vighan/obstruction Aradhana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
