Guest guest Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 hi i want to know something related to lord ganesha picture to be kept at home. i bought one photo (standard framed,sold outside the temples) of lord ganesha: 1> standing ganesha 2> lion on backside of the ganesha 3> mouse is also present near the feets of ganesha 4> he has 10 hands (5 left and 5 right) holding different types of weapons. 5> But both of his teeth are intact (he is not shown to be ek-dant) 6> snakes are surronded on his belly is this correct picture to be kept in home for praying. somehow i am getting doubts about it. i purchased it from a famous & old temple. i am planning to visit a nearby temple and leave the picture in that temple. will that be ok ? i have another picture of lord ganesha + lordess lakshmi & sarawati. when i compare these two ganesha, they look different. So I was thinking of taking the standing ganesha picture & leaving it in some temple. please advise. thanks angel =================== 5, 50, 500, 5000. Store N number of mails in your inbox.

Guest guest Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 Hi , the ganesha what you have described is known as Dristhi ganesha which is kept out side the house mostly on main doors or above main door,this is used used to ward off evil eye on the house by any one. sharma angel <angelgoel wrote: hi i want to know something related to lord ganesha picture to be kept at home. i bought one photo (standard framed,sold outside the temples) of lord ganesha: 1> standing ganesha 2> lion on backside of the ganesha 3> mouse is also present near the feets of ganesha 4> he has 10 hands (5 left and 5 right) holding different types of weapons. 5> But both of his teeth are intact (he is not shown to be ek-dant) 6> snakes are surronded on his belly is this correct picture to be kept in home for praying. somehow i am getting doubts about it. i purchased it from a famous & old temple. i am planning to visit a nearby temple and leave the picture in that temple. will that be ok ? i have another picture of lord ganesha + lordess lakshmi & sarawati. when i compare these two ganesha, they look different.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Since the subject of Ganesha has been brought up, let me mention that poverty resides on the back side of Ganesha. Hence, an idol/ photograph must be so placed that no portion within the house/ office/ shop, especially locations where cash, cheque books or jewelery items are placed, fall on his back side. If at all this cannot be avoided due to any reasons, whatsoever, then his back side must be well covered. As an example place two Ganesha back to back, one facing each direction.
