WHY
 PRAYER?
    DR.
 SHRINIWAS
KASHALIKAR
As youngsters, we often faced
this question of why should we
   pray before every action!

In the course of time it becomes
clear, that prayer is (and should
  be) a means of catalyzing the
  culmination of every work in
     ecstatic completion and
   culmination of the work in
 complete satisfaction of global
             welfare.
Let us see the essence of the
       worship of Ganesh!

       SHRI GANESHAAYA
              NAMAH
I offer my salutations to Shri
           Ganesh.
  I offer my prayers to Lord Shri
  Ganesh, who is the God of self
            realization.
   The meaning of the expression
     “God of realization” is very
  interesting and profound. In the
   nature there are various divine
      ‘powers’ or ‘energies’ and
express or manifest themselves in
 different forms. Lord Ganesh is
  the source of the experience of
     enlightenment i.e. cosmic
    oneness i.e. oneness with the
 dynamic evolving essence of the
   inner and outer environment!

  It is therefore customary and
appropriate to pray Lord Ganesh
    before starting any work.
 Since the realization of truth is
   the prerequisite to accurate
 vision, decision, commensurate
 desire and intention, conviction
and strength and thence accurate
 action, it is appropriate to pray
Lord Ganesh before starting any
 work. These prayers enliven us
  with HOLISTIC HEALTH or
SWADHARMA. The meaning of
 SWADHARMA is explained in
          another article.
         Hence it is said
VAKRATUNDA
       MAHAAKAAYA
SURYAKOTISAMAPRABHA
  NIRVIGHNAM KURU ME
  DEVA SARVAKARYESHU
          SARVADAA
          Which means
O Lord Ganesh with beautifully
twisted trunk and gigantic body;
  you are bright like billions of
  suns. Please endow me with
 success i.e. global welfare and
 complete satisfaction in every
work of mine and make it devoid
    of deficiency and defeat.
