| The Vinayaka (Ganesha) principle protects man from the various hurdles in life and ensures peace and security. Hence on every auspicious occasion, Vinayaka is worshipped. The devout offer worship to Vinayaka with the well-known prayer beginning with the words, Shuklaambara-dharam (The one who wears a white garment). Vighneshvara is described as one who is white like the moon, who has four arms (two for giving worldly protection and two for spiritual benediction), who has an ever-pleasing countenance and to whom obeisance is offered for removing all obstacles. - Divine Discourse, September 16, 1996. |
