The Last Story make my heart rejoice because I realized at a early age that my parents was my everything and my grandparents on both sides they sacrificed so much for us kids and as well as it should be they are the first people you see in life are the first people you interact with the matter of first people to let you know that you are loved so my mom and dad and my grandparents on both sides by whole world
@parvin pal Hahaha... Check from the Indian TV show on Ganesha which depicts same story that Ganesha completed 3 rounds around his parents signifying them as his world.
Origins are from Scythians + Greeks Who went over to India History goes back 6,000 years Hindu Nationalists refuse to talk about it If you do, they may even get violent Denying the Aryan migration Of their own ancestors
@@APEX-qv7rm Aryan invasion theory has been destroyed by the recent findings at rakhigarhi and archaeological site in south which had similar written symbols as indus valley civilisation.
@@e-cuauhtemoc Check out the recent discoveries. Even the official reports have been published. The basis of aryan invasion was that the vedic culture and sanskrit was not indigenous to india and was brought by foriegners the so called aryans. Rakhigarhi is currently the largest indus civilisation site and the genetics dont match that of the aryan genes. The keezhadi or keeladi site in south presents the same symbols used by harappans to write. That proves that civilisation in south was present at the time of indus civilisation. It was not the case that foreigners pushed the people towards south. Also archaeological society of india has recently siggested that mahabharat war took place at an earlier date of 2100 to 1500 bce, instead of what was proposed earlier. And the proposed date of aryan invasion/migration is around 1100 bce. So, the aryan invasion is being torn apart bit by bit. You just have to check out the recent news reports. ASI yet have to publish the official report. But they have declared that much. I can tell you many sources for my claim about the myth. But this comment you get really long.
Correction, Elephants aren't afraid of mice they are afraid of stepping on them. They show that they do not want to cause harm to other creatures especially furry ones. They actively view the ground while walking anywhere to make sure they do not step on and destroy small life.
@@carlosandleon that's because they were trained to do it. just like elite soldiers, they were trained to ignore reason and mercy and just follow orders.
As I understood the symbolism wa that an elephant could break down barriers but a mouse could burrow past them, so the mouse represented another aspect of his power.
Some corrections. He is considered the remover of obstacles and elephants were used in ancient times to remove obstacles during construction of dams etc. He has features of an animal as well as the divine, reflecting what we humans have too. He holds sweets in one hand and an elephant goad ( the tool used to push elephants ). Meaning he gives us what we ask for in moderation ( sweets ) while also gently pushing us toward what we actually need. The story of him going round his parents shows his wisdon even without the fruit. Shiva and Parvathi are considered the Mother and Father of the Universe, and going round them would equate to going around their creation. There was nothing manipulative about it.
well, a sort of... Trickster god, who is also entirely wholesome and positive? That's one rare sight. Hermes and Loki would shudder at the mere tought of such untarnished use of wits and charisma.
Today I have something to share with everyone about Lord Ganesha. As I was sleeping last night, I thought of him and viewed his picture. And there , I saw what is the deep and true meaning of Lord Ganesha. His shadow, stands for, don't forget your loved ones, his legs stepping on earth stands for he is the creator. His nice clothes stands for, appreciate what you are given . not everyone is blessed with it ,his belly is not huge because he eats too much but it teaches us how to digest all good and bad , his blessings bring us happiness, the sweet dish on his hand teaches us how to appreciate what we are getting instead of doing 'uff' to the food. His long tusk is also the shape of a fish which teaches us that he is the creator of the water and the fish too since he also loved the water so much. He has a small mouth and it teaches us that we should talk less , his small eyes teach us that we should concentrate more , his huge ears are the shape of a moon and this makes him the son of the lord of the universe and it also teaches us to listen more too, he broke his tusk to bring knowledge in the world , he has an elephant head , this doesn't tell us of the way the father chopped the head , but it teaches us that there are lots of handicapped people and people with body misshapes they should not feel offended. He teaches us that you are perfect the way you are. He has a snake around his belly which teaches us that you should always be kind to all animals. Poisonous animals can also help you during difficult times and lastly , he has the rat as his vehicle, it teaches us that however small the animal , respect it. It can take you miles and sometimes be a sign of goodluck.( this is just my thoughts as I saw the picture. )
Man if u havent copied this stuff from somewhere, i can say u have taught me something today. It was in front of my eyes hidden but u illuminated it making it clear to me. Thank u
@@Around-The-Verse you may be trolling, but some forms of Ganesh are quite sexual, he has 2 beautiful wifes that he likes to keep on his lap. I don't know what is his relationship with cannabis but I know it is holy plant for Shiva.
Lord Ganesha is best Guardian for his mother Parvathy. He sacrificed his head for his mother. He never let anyone to visit his mother even Shivan ( father). So, Ganesha worshipped as Special one in any religious event. Marriages. Ganesha ( human + Elephant). Ganesha is given special power by Shivan .
The symbolism of Ganesh is universal and quite powerful. Ganesh is associated with the Om the primordial sound. He is invoked at the beginning of every hindu ritual and is worshipped first before any endeavor. He is the one who grants success and failure. The crown represents his being the supreme Creator. All gods are one God in most hindu traditions. His elephant head represents wisdom and intelligence as elephants are highly intelligent and social animals. His ears are large in that he hears all is aware of all our needs. The trishul on his brow represents his transcendence of the three gunas like Shiva. The three lines represent his dominance over the three worlds of creation. His axe represents his ability to remove all obstacles from our path. The noose represents the obstacles he puts in our path for learning and growth. The single tusk represents his non-duality, he is Shiva and Shakti both embodied. Thus represents the manifestation of both power and consciousness. The hand outstretched represents his willingness to bless and protect all beings. The bowl of treats represents that he wishes us to enjoy life while we follow our dharma. It should always be joyful. The potbelly represents that he contains the entire universe. The yellow pants represent his active power in all things mastery of will and mind. The mouse represents that even the smallest things in nature are a manifestation of the divine. His birth by shakti or raw energy made from the filth washed off of Ma represents the animal nature of man. His blocking Shiva represents how the lower nature or ego is an obstacle to moksha. The trishul trident that Shiva beheaded him with represents that the ultimate obstacle is overcome by transcending the three gunas. His death represents the death of the little self and his endowment of the elephant head represents his attaining enlightenment. Ganapataye means lord of hosts or lord of communities but also lord of all divisions. It represents his mastery over all creation. He is the amalgamation of both the divine feminine and masculine and thus the divine made manifest in creation.
But his sister Introduced him to Her friend, a very pretty girl He fell in love ...and forgot the 2 worlds Sister took care of the 2 worlds And inherited the Kingdom
There is no god but Allah, the god of Abraham, Jesus, Moses and adam. How can you claim there are multiple gods? If there are multiple gods, it suggests that one can’t survive without the other, which means your ‘gods’ aren’t omnipotent, which defeats the purpose of a god.
@@samic5721 There is no undeniable truth to the existence of allah nor Hindu gods, but their worshipers still follow them for the same idea; hope and faith. Every religion has flaws whether you like it or not. So let people believe what they want to believe and don't force your ideas.
@@samic5721 a god doesn't necessarily need to be omnipotent. Also, why do you think that multiple gods need each other to survive?, I don't see you're logic.
"He went around the houses on his birthday to collect sweets and cakes, which he stored in his stomach." I like to store sweets and cakes in my stomach too! 😊
Actually the last story does not depicts that he was manipulative instead it depicts smartness defeats power, he was not manipulative instead he was cleaver and smart....its better to give a fight than to give up
I love Ganesha, he's one of the Gods in my pantheon whom I've worked with. He's kind, has a bright spirit, and yet is also fiercely protective. He's come to my aid a few times now, and I usually end up offering him cannabis, gulab jamun (usually the sweets he's holding, based on what I've read on him), or even money (he seems to enjoy the weed and sweets more xD a God I can REALLY relate to lol)
Hey, I recently discovered the God Ganesh. I’ve been saying the mantra “Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha Shririam Ganesha.” I feel super connected to the divine creation of Ganesh and want him to guide my life. I am very interested in the topic but it is a bit hard to find good information on the topic. Do you mind sharing the readings where they explain the connection between Ganesh and Cannabis? I know Shiva is heavily connected to weed, but wanted more insight on how Ganesh is. I also love weed and have been smoking it before meeting Ganesh. Learning that Ganesh likes cannabis makes me so intrigued. Thanks in advance, and have a great day. Namaste
Recently I moved in with a lovely Indian man, and after having a Ganesh obsession for about twenty years, it was fabulous to hear how he and his brothers were told these tales from a very young age, and how they affected the sons in his family. All hail Ganesh, God of triumph over new endeavours who has seemingly helped me in many ways for many, many years. What an incredible figure! Love from, an atheist. ☺️
Edit: said 'lovely Indian man' turned out to be a heroin addicted mental case who plays his wife off his mistress. Eeeep!!! Still... Was nice to share stories in that time.
@@Boo_hoo7 yeah, I'm currently chasing down my silver plated, hand made flute that he stole. Ganesha must have given me a little help as I've been working quite successfully on this recently and MAY actually get the instrument back. Unfortunately not so for the rest of the crap he stole from me. I have nothing against drugs but everything against people who hide behind them to excuse their disgusting behaviour.
I had a dream about his image being carved on my chest. I walked in my brothers room and checked his closet. There was a picture of me in the closet. When I picked up the picture, it started to move like in hairy potter. Gif like you know... and there was this image on my chest. I felt worried so I woke up and immediately went to gather more info on who this is and why did it come to me? Mind you I never looked into this type of mythology. Chime in if you can help me...
I heard from a old Hindu man that said the reason why you sometimes see getting Asha as a boy and then as an elephant is because when he was born he was born with all knowledge of the world the elephant is also animal of memory and knowledge
@@Deepaksharma-xb1nz not everything is absolute in Hinduism. Stop acting as an authority of it. The symbolic version is true. Elephants are known for their excellent memory. And ganesha has all the qualities of elephants.
He is one of my spirit guides, I know that sounds weird. But it’s true. I didn’t know anything about him, so I’m researching. I don’t even know anything about Hinduism. But, he is with me to help me be happy. A medium explained he plops his trunk on me to ease my depression and remind me to enjoy life. ❤️
@@beakalabmek-zv2rs That is so awesome. I have learned a lot more about him since I wrote this. I absolutely adore Ganesh. If he is our guide, then you must be my brother/sister. ❤️
Before even knowing that Ganesha existed or ever seeing it before; i saw him or her during my first DMT trip. But it wasn't wearing a crown and didn't have a body. Just an elephant head with jewels embedded in the forehead (purple, green, red). Also the walls turned to glittering gold and it was a beautiful experience. I felt like I was in the presence of God. As a Christian and believing in Jesus this whole experience has opened my mind to the probability of more than one God existing. Before my trip I had never learned about or saw Ganesha because in American culture and school it would be unusual to learn about Shiva or any other Hindu Gods. Personally I believe that Ganesha had shown itself to me and the DMT was my portal to the spiritual world.
Wow man, the SAME thing happened to me! This was the first and only time I had ever taken DMT. Ganesha appeared to me. It was like holographic, made of light. It was pulsating with light and had this powerful, divine presence. I can't believe I came across your comment, as I've never heard anyone have this experience on DMT other than myself.
Bro! WTF! The whole reason I looked this up was because of seeing him while on shrooms. I didn’t know who he was either. I ate a good amount of shrooms on my own, I laid down and zoned out and seen him and an infinite number of him spiraling into eternity.
While in a meditation with a group, there were some of us who saw Ganesha, and he stated that he was here to help in these most unusual times. The Ganesha that we saw was bright pink, and he was draped in a bright green. None of us knew anything about Ganesha since were are not Indian or Hindu. We have asked Ganesha to removed or solve difficult tasks for us, and within hours they are removed. This has happened repeatedly.
My grandma is of indian descent and I have a knit affinity with elephants. I knew Ganesha when I was 4 years old and I already have a affinity with elephants since 1. I got to know my indian heritage when I was 9
I am a Hindu. I think there is lot of hidden symbolism behind all deities description in our ancient texts. Here the depicted pictures are artist's thought/creativity, the truth may beyond this. Lots of false interpretation are there in current society. People are giving importance to someone's(not the real author's) thought through these photos and continues following it.
Yes. People are missing the point by looking at artistic dipiction of ancient texts. These were meant to guide the people but the masses want the easy path so they just started worshiping. They have made these ancient wisdom into organised religion. IMO "religion" the word would be translated as adharma which is the opposite of the what the majority says.
Ganesh was the first deity who appeared to me (in dreams) throughout my profound transformation into Hinduism. He is the most loving and generous of deities and my best friend. I know he will be there when I die to hold my hand and show me the way.
Wow. You're being deceived. Look at the pictures carefully. Don't you recognise something is wrong. Is your spirit okay with these pictures? Look at those snakes? The snake 🐍 of the bible! He has been a deceiver from the beginning! Open your eyes! Satan has been working hard! Keep searching for the truth! Ask Jesus to show you the truth! What have you got to lose.. just ask him a question. Please watch Naela Rose testimony.. very powerful. She communicated with the Indian Gods! Praying for you children of God! 🙏🙏❤️
In Hinduism we have the swastika on most deities hand, the star of David ✡️ on the hand of Kartikeya🔯 this ellipses are drawn at homes⚛️ this is a Buddhist wheel of life☸️. So we embrace all logos (which also means universe in Sanskrit). The 🕉️ om is the symbol of primordial sound of universe.
The last story about circumventing earth was also depicted in wrong light. Lord Kartikeya mocked Lord Ganesha that he is fat and unworthy. Lord Kartikeya had won several wars and felt nothing can surmount strength. When put forward the challenge to circumvent earth he put in all his strength whereas Lord Ganesha did smart work instead of hard work because technically Shiva and Parvati are manifestation of Matter and Energy and Earth is made up of them. Together they form the Universe. This story teaches us to not jump to conclusion and that wisdom is the greatest strength.
@@thethreespikes9737 I hardcore communed with Shiva on a very powerful mushroom trip. It was his divine essence rushing and blasting through every particle, every energy of my being. All I could see was Shiva, he was my entire existence for an undetermined amount of time. Even on DMT I have not had such an ineffably intimate experience with divinity as I did that time. Much much love to Lord Shiva and Lord Ganesh!!
I have never been into Hindu culture let alone know about their gods. I apologize for being so closed minded and ignorant. But… Ganesha came to visited me in a dream last night… now I am awakened and so happy he came to me. I love you Ganesha for giving blessing me. I hope to understand more about him and pray to him.
Yes I am strongly Iike you beside we all need a reason Why we naturally love elephants for their grace, superiority, Human like personality and unique looks and overcoming fear and inferiority by their big size
Actually, it was used by H. P. Blavatsky to illustrate her main work, which later on came to influence the thinkers behind the Thule society, of which Hitler became a member many years before rising to fame within the Nazi party. He himself never chose the symbol, it was chosen by the ones pulling the strings behind the scenes and enabling his rise to power.
@@harryheart6018 actually I think (idk properly) that hitler took the swastika from the eastern religions as it represents good luck, fortune and protection in many eastern religions so he thought it wud help his party
Ganashe just came to me in a breakthrough mushroom trip and telepathically power blasted me. I didn’t know who he was and had to search to find out. Crazy
Correction: Kuber (the God of wealth) story, that story is bit different as it was Kuber in his Pride decided to Challenge Lord Shiva (God of destruction) who was known to shower his Devotees with any boon they want but he himself use to roam as Sage with minimal Clothing, So Kuber decided to teach Shiva a lesson about wealth he went to Invite him to his Castle But Shiva being one of the Supreme God knows about Kuber's Plan he rejected Kuber invitation but after much request of Kuber he send Ganesh with him but he also warn Kuber about Ganesh appetite but Ganesh being no older than a small child Kuber took that warning lightly when THE feast began Ganesh ate everything in Kuber's reserve but when Kuber was unable to satisfy Ganesh's Hunger that Angered Ganesh and he destroyed Kuber's Castle and Gardens. Scared Kuber went To Shiva and Prayed him to Stop his Son after making Kuber Realise his Mistake Parvati (Mother of Ganesh ) Presented Kuber With a bowl of Rice,Kuber in disbelief asked Parvati if it was a Joke but Parvati assured that this would satisfy Ganesh's hunger and it did, and after Ganesh came to his senses and saddened by the destruction he caused in his rage Blessed Kuber......
well because in Hinduism even Christianity and other Forthcoming Religions were told by Lord Kirshna even said embrace them do not shove them that is why Hindu's never criticized other Religions.
@Andrea C uhhh ??? So Christians do not have radicals every religion does have them. See how many people rejected a democratic candidate Tulsi gabbard just because she is a Hindu and they even said Hinduism a Satan religion so that doesn't seem like a radical one?
@Andrea C when and were did Hindu burn Churches and attack Christians?

Too many problems in the video that arose out of the necessity to take shortcuts. Parvati is literally all life, as she is the purest manifestation of Devi or the Goddess principle. So injuring a even a cat ends up injuring her. Ganesha circumnavigated his parents because his parents are literally the male and female principle of the world and together they make up the whole world. So it wasn't impishness or filial piety, it was understanding the nature of existence. These are a few. Myths tend to have a lot of different interpretations but they should align with the parent culture.
What kind of god is it that humans have the ability to hurt him/her? Glorified is Allah - the god of Abraham, Moses, muhammad (saw) and Jesus, the one true god, above all that you associate with him!
@samic5721 do you have any common sense left or your brain is dead?? These are just metaphors to depict different aspects of god. These stories are just myths to tell the many facets of life. The mother goddess Parvati is literally the all pervading omniversal reality, a much higher concept that your "Allah".

There was a store in my town I was told I should visit. I couldn’t find it but I told myself I would. Originally I went to buy some tarot cards and as I was passing by some statues it was as if someone said “hey look” I look right at a red Ganesha statue. I couldn’t stop staring it but I didn’t want to go over my budget so I kept walking. As I was paying I felt nauseous like I had to buy it and I couldn’t leave without it. I bought it and is now with me
Why are so many of the retellings of this story bent on down playing Parvati's power and her rage? Every single time I hear this retelling from modern sources they say 'oh she was so upset. ' Yeah she was upset but the reason anything got done is because she's so powerful that she was destroying the entire universe in her rage. Give the woman her due, she freaked out every single God in the pantheon and They begged to have the head restored to the boy. If you're going to retell the stories show some respect the females in the pantheon, eh?
I mean, cool, its her rage she found ganesha's head chopped off that made people scurry around for a head, but I think we understand what happened. What you want is a overexaggerated commotion over a detail that knew that a cherished thing can upset a powerful being. I see your "rage" about it, but i think theres no point in waving a finger at people who are trying to be modestly moderate with the story.
Its crazy 3weeks ago I found a beautiful elephant wooden head at the gas station on pump #13. A month before that I found a brand new stuffed elephants push toy .
Aw man. It was all good till you implied that toddler Ganesha wasn't genuine when he ran around his parents 3 times calling them his world. You're missing the whole point of the story.
@@shizukousapostle1stapostle710 actually no, hindu stories usually imply some philosophy and it clearly says in almost every hindu myth that Ganesha thought his parents were the world and rightly so, Shiva and Parvathi are the creators and destroyers in hinduism...

I do love elephants very much as it can be part of my ethnic heritage from my indian paternal grandma and also it’s because It’s Human Like Personality, superior touch and see behaviour, Being Big as a overcoming fear and inferior and Long trunk representing Muscular unique grace and Majesty.

I wish to learn more why me and other people love and revere elephants for culture reasons. Why do I find elephants have this grace behaviours??
Why would shiva replaced the boy's head with an elephant head. He could fixed the head back to the way it was. Or because shiva finds elephant are more intelligent than human ?
@@rajatsoni3763 By turning his face into elephant head would rid of the ego ? It doesn't make any sense. Ego are not from head but from our heart.

The smartest land animal is chimpanzee. Sorry i was just trying to grasp the reason why shiva chose elephant head instead other animal. You said the reason was human face has an ego really doesn't make any sense at all
Excellent video! It would have been interesting to hear his place in the Jain and Buddhist cosmology too, since they exist alongside and are practiced and revered simultaneously to the Hindu cosmology. Wasn't Lord Ganesha also one of the Buddha's friends and protectors as he journeyed the land seeking wisdom? Did not Ganesha assume a place as Vinakya, the Buddha's protector? He is after all the god of wisdom and success.
@@pritsingh9766 nor do i understand why Hindu Ultra Nationalists have absolutely no idea how history and society actually developed beyond their own insistence that "Hindus achieved everything alone". Firstly, I'm not Buddhist mate. These gods are revered by Buddhists because they are the gods of the Buddhist tradition too. Essentially Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism are exactly the same tradition? Because centuries of Hindus and Buddhists have practiced both traditions simultaneously, from Ashoka, through the Gupta Dynasty, the Majapahits, the Palas, the Tibetan Empires, Chinese and Japanese Buddhism? Maybe learn something that might be accepted fact in a modern, secular university, before letting your Hindu nationalist sense of superiority get the better of you. Just a tip.
I can explain that to you, without being rude and such in earlier years pre-Buddism many Hindu kings from India ruled over many parts of southeast Asia and China to an extent Buddhism is technically a side branch of Hinduism as Buddha himself according to some Hindu scholars is depicted as the 9th incarnation of Vishnu why is Vinayaka a protector of the buddha because there is a correction the first person to get Ganesh a replacement head was Vishnu, not the demons or shiva. Vishnu adored Ganesha he is technically a god-father for Ganesha and uncle as well. if you see in Hindu stories sometimes even Vishnu calls Parvati as his sister so you can see how it goes. so it's common in every Asian religion you can see Ganesha was one of the main gods since all have the same basis of Hinduism (all belief in Nature). Many times you see even in Vishnu stories that his incarnations are a devotee of Shiva and shiva's incarnations are a devotee of Vishnu. Well, Hinduism stories are quite long so it takes a while to explain actually.
@@xenzorygames4116 No, you have a very obviously Hindu nationalist belief that everyone and everything within India must subscribe to your beliefs and ideals. But like any Hindu nationalist, you subscribe to a warped telling of history. You're also laughably incorrect. It's no stretch to explain that Buddhism did emerge from a background of Hindu culture. That's where Buddha was born and raised. But it doesn't prove your point. Also, Hindu kings from India never ruled in Southeast Asia and China. You need to relearn your history. Hinduism and Buddhism reached Southeast Asia by maritime trade around the 1st century CE. These Empires were ruled by native dynasties. Buddhism is well recorded as having reached China by the Silk Road. The only Indian King is the legend of Ashoka's son becoming King of Khotan, which is almost certainly apocryphal. Even your explanation is absurd: "according to some Hindu scholars Buddha is depicted as the 9th incarnation of Vishnu". That doesn't prove Buddhism is a side branch of Hinduism. It just proves that some Hindus like to presume they own Buddhism. But it has a similar level of logic as a Chinese Taoist professor explaining that some of the Indian deities emerged around China, so Hinduism is actually Taoism. But that's untrue. Buddhists don't teach this as part of their creed, so it's simply absurd that you would state that this proves your point. And Buddhists don't have any obligation to accept it. Hindus don't have the right to speak for Buddhists (or Jains, or Sikhs), who do follow many Hindu precepts but teach many different ideas. This is the same as Jews, Christians and Muslims don't speak for each other. It's simply absurd. Nothing you're saying proves anything more than you're a Hindu nationalist.
@@TheSamuraijim87 I never said I was a Hindu nationalist in the first place and I never said Hindu's own Buddism I do not know why you are taking it that way. because only the northern part of India is actually thought to the world the Chola dynasty conquered parts of Thailand, Srilanka, even south Indian princesses ruled south Korea and Japan for over 40 years it is even considered that some dynasties had Indian blood in them as well. even the largest temple in the world is built in Combodia originally made for lord shiva now became a Buddist Temple after long years even that temple was built by a king of the Chola dynasty which most of the north Indians do not even consider since most of northern India was ruled by Iranians and afghans so it isn't considered as a rule for you I guess Hindu's usually do not destroy cultures and traditions like Islamic rulers and Christian Rulers do I just said they had shared Gods and some had extended history for Example Hanuman and Sun Wukong is considered the same because the story happened after Ramayana and even Buddha is considered as the 9th incarnation of Vishnu.

Another interpretation of why Ganesh did what He did was to get His father's attention. Shiva was always the aloof, absent Father. In this story on one side was all the material wealth in the world and on the other was His Father with a bowl of oats & nothing else. And He chose his Father. This syncs with His rebellious yet entangled relationship with Shiva. Also, syncs with the story of Kartik & Ganesh on their respective journeys around the universe. Kartik took His peacock & went around the universe while Ganesh just walked around His Father & Mother. That story displays His intelligence and where He focuses His good will. Home. Family. Prosperity in unity of home & family.

One of the best stories is the one in which Ravana was carrying a Shivalinga which he wasn't supposed to keep down, and he had to take a leak, and hamesha appeared in disguise and offered to hold the shivalinga for him, only to keep it down at the first chance. Naughty AF.
I keep forgetting that the Swazika was a prominent symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism before it became associated with the Nazis, leading to a lot of jarring moments when I see pictures like the one at 0:20.
Ganesha: *eats all Kabeera's food* Kabeera: "That's fine, everything's fine." Ganesha: *eats all Kabeera's money* Kabeera: "Annoying, but i'm cool with this." Ganesha: *tries to eat Kabeera* Kabeera: "Whoa, whoa, whoa, NOT cool, bro!" Ganesha: "Sorry, i was trying to teach you not to be so selfish."

Aryan invasion theory has been destroyed by the recent findings at rakhigarhi and archaeological site in south which had similar written symbols as indus valley civilisation.
@@shams24aks PROOF! Or you have no claim!
@@e-cuauhtemoc
Check out the recent discoveries. Even the official reports have been published.
The basis of aryan invasion was that the vedic culture and sanskrit was not indigenous to india and was brought by foriegners the so called aryans.
Rakhigarhi is currently the largest indus civilisation site and the genetics dont match that of the aryan genes.
The keezhadi or keeladi site in south presents the same symbols used by harappans to write. That proves that civilisation in south was present at the time of indus civilisation. It was not the case that foreigners pushed the people towards south.
Also archaeological society of india has recently siggested that mahabharat war took place at an earlier date of 2100 to 1500 bce, instead of what was proposed earlier. And the proposed date of aryan invasion/migration is around 1100 bce. So, the aryan invasion is being torn apart bit by bit.
You just have to check out the recent news reports. ASI yet have to publish the official report. But they have declared that much.
I can tell you many sources for my claim about the myth. But this comment you get really long.
Correction, Elephants aren't afraid of mice they are afraid of stepping on them. They show that they do not want to cause harm to other creatures especially furry ones. They actively view the ground while walking anywhere to make sure they do not step on and destroy small life.
Like the story of Ganesha and the cat?
that's bullshit, war elephants were preferred because they had no qualms on crushing people while horses actively tried to avoid trampling the enemy
@@carlosandleon that's because they were trained to do it. just like elite soldiers, they were trained to ignore reason and mercy and just follow orders.
@@Alusnovalotus yeah but elephants are terrifiedby mice and not for the reason the original comment Said it was.
As I understood the symbolism wa that an elephant could break down barriers but a mouse could burrow past them, so the mouse represented another aspect of his power.

Some corrections. He is considered the remover of obstacles and elephants were used in ancient times to remove obstacles during construction of dams etc. He has features of an animal as well as the divine, reflecting what we humans have too.
He holds sweets in one hand and an elephant goad ( the tool used to push elephants ). Meaning he gives us what we ask for in moderation ( sweets ) while also gently pushing us toward what we actually need.
The story of him going round his parents shows his wisdon even without the fruit. Shiva and Parvathi are considered the Mother and Father of the Universe, and going round them would equate to going around their creation. There was nothing manipulative about it.
Sweets and the goad at the same time... That's brilliant! Thank you for sharing this
Thanks for the clarification

the last story made me smile. a touching gesture.
well, a sort of... Trickster god, who is also entirely wholesome and positive? That's one rare sight. Hermes and Loki would shudder at the mere tought of such untarnished use of wits and charisma.

Today I have something to share with everyone about Lord Ganesha. As I was sleeping last night, I thought of him and viewed his picture. And there , I saw what is the deep and true meaning of Lord Ganesha. His shadow, stands for, don't forget your loved ones, his legs stepping on earth stands for he is the creator. His nice clothes stands for, appreciate what you are given . not everyone is blessed with it ,his belly is not huge because he eats too much but it teaches us how to digest all good and bad , his blessings bring us happiness, the sweet dish on his hand teaches us how to appreciate what we are getting instead of doing 'uff' to the food. His long tusk is also the shape of a fish which teaches us that he is the creator of the water and the fish too since he also loved the water so much. He has a small mouth and it teaches us that we should talk less , his small eyes teach us that we should concentrate more , his huge ears are the shape of a moon and this makes him the son of the lord of the universe and it also teaches us to listen more too, he broke his tusk to bring knowledge in the world , he has an elephant head , this doesn't tell us of the way the father chopped the head , but it teaches us that there are lots of handicapped people and people with body misshapes they should not feel offended. He teaches us that you are perfect the way you are. He has a snake around his belly which teaches us that you should always be kind to all animals. Poisonous animals can also help you during difficult times and lastly , he has the rat as his vehicle, it teaches us that however small the animal , respect it. It can take you miles and sometimes be a sign of goodluck.( this is just my thoughts as I saw the picture. )
Oh good one....I appreciate your openness
Man if u havent copied this stuff from somewhere, i can say u have taught me something today. It was in front of my eyes hidden but u illuminated it making it clear to me. Thank u
@@Around-The-Verse you may be trolling, but some forms of Ganesh are quite sexual, he has 2 beautiful wifes that he likes to keep on his lap. I don't know what is his relationship with cannabis but I know it is holy plant for Shiva.
I think the small mouth means to talk less about yourself.
thank you so much
Lord Ganesha is best Guardian for his mother Parvathy. He sacrificed his head for his mother. He never let anyone to visit his mother even Shivan ( father). So, Ganesha worshipped as Special one in any religious event. Marriages. Ganesha ( human + Elephant). Ganesha is given special power by Shivan .
🙏🙏
Actually , Ganesha is the supreme God in Hinduism. He wasn't ever born. His actual name is maha ganpati. Ganesha was his avatar.

@@Tribrid-zv3nq bro he wasn't made ge existed

The symbolism of Ganesh is universal and quite powerful. Ganesh is associated with the Om the primordial sound. He is invoked at the beginning of every hindu ritual and is worshipped first before any endeavor. He is the one who grants success and failure. The crown represents his being the supreme Creator. All gods are one God in most hindu traditions. His elephant head represents wisdom and intelligence as elephants are highly intelligent and social animals. His ears are large in that he hears all is aware of all our needs. The trishul on his brow represents his transcendence of the three gunas like Shiva. The three lines represent his dominance over the three worlds of creation. His axe represents his ability to remove all obstacles from our path. The noose represents the obstacles he puts in our path for learning and growth. The single tusk represents his non-duality, he is Shiva and Shakti both embodied. Thus represents the manifestation of both power and consciousness. The hand outstretched represents his willingness to bless and protect all beings. The bowl of treats represents that he wishes us to enjoy life while we follow our dharma. It should always be joyful. The potbelly represents that he contains the entire universe. The yellow pants represent his active power in all things mastery of will and mind. The mouse represents that even the smallest things in nature are a manifestation of the divine. His birth by shakti or raw energy made from the filth washed off of Ma represents the animal nature of man. His blocking Shiva represents how the lower nature or ego is an obstacle to moksha. The trishul trident that Shiva beheaded him with represents that the ultimate obstacle is overcome by transcending the three gunas. His death represents the death of the little self and his endowment of the elephant head represents his attaining enlightenment. Ganapataye means lord of hosts or lord of communities but also lord of all divisions. It represents his mastery over all creation. He is the amalgamation of both the divine feminine and masculine and thus the divine made manifest in creation.
Beautiful!!

There is no god but Allah, the god of Abraham, Jesus, Moses and adam. How can you claim there are multiple gods? If there are multiple gods, it suggests that one can’t survive without the other, which means your ‘gods’ aren’t omnipotent, which defeats the purpose of a god.

Hey, I recently discovered the God Ganesh. I’ve been saying the mantra “Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha Shririam Ganesha.” I feel super connected to the divine creation of Ganesh and want him to guide my life. I am very interested in the topic but it is a bit hard to find good information on the topic. Do you mind sharing the readings where they explain the connection between Ganesh and Cannabis? I know Shiva is heavily connected to weed, but wanted more insight on how Ganesh is. I also love weed and have been smoking it before meeting Ganesh. Learning that Ganesh likes cannabis makes me so intrigued. Thanks in advance, and have a great day. Namaste

Before even knowing that Ganesha existed or ever seeing it before; i saw him or her during my first DMT trip. But it wasn't wearing a crown and didn't have a body. Just an elephant head with jewels embedded in the forehead (purple, green, red). Also the walls turned to glittering gold and it was a beautiful experience. I felt like I was in the presence of God. As a Christian and believing in Jesus this whole experience has opened my mind to the probability of more than one God existing. Before my trip I had never learned about or saw Ganesha because in American culture and school it would be unusual to learn about Shiva or any other Hindu Gods. Personally I believe that Ganesha had shown itself to me and the DMT was my portal to the spiritual world.
Wow man, the SAME thing happened to me! This was the first and only time I had ever taken DMT. Ganesha appeared to me. It was like holographic, made of light. It was pulsating with light and had this powerful, divine presence. I can't believe I came across your comment, as I've never heard anyone have this experience on DMT other than myself.
@@jposco Me too!
Bro! WTF! The whole reason I looked this up was because of seeing him while on shrooms. I didn’t know who he was either. I ate a good amount of shrooms on my own, I laid down and zoned out and seen him and an infinite number of him spiraling into eternity.

While in a meditation with a group, there were some of us who saw Ganesha, and he stated that he was here to help in these most unusual times. The Ganesha that we saw was bright pink, and he was draped in a bright green. None of us knew anything about Ganesha since were are not Indian or Hindu. We have asked Ganesha to removed or solve difficult tasks for us, and within hours they are removed. This has happened repeatedly.
My grandma is of indian descent and I have a knit affinity with elephants. I knew Ganesha when I was 4 years old and I already have a affinity with elephants since 1. I got to know my indian heritage when I was 9

Are you implying that Ganesha is a demon? If so, you are wrong.
I am a Hindu. I think there is lot of hidden symbolism behind all deities description in our ancient texts. Here the depicted pictures are artist's thought/creativity, the truth may beyond this. Lots of false interpretation are there in current society. People are giving importance to someone's(not the real author's) thought through these photos and continues following it.
Yes. People are missing the point by looking at artistic dipiction of ancient texts. These were meant to guide the people but the masses want the easy path so they just started worshiping. They have made these ancient wisdom into organised religion. IMO "religion" the word would be translated as adharma which is the opposite of the what the majority says.
You are spot on. These are symbolic images. People imagine Gods in their own or similar images. That's erroneous!
@@SurajSinghTomarArya agreed. Lot of nonsense in society now.

In Hinduism we have the swastika on most deities hand, the star of David ✡️ on the hand of Kartikeya🔯 this ellipses are drawn at homes⚛️ this is a Buddhist wheel of life☸️. So we embrace all logos (which also means universe in Sanskrit). The 🕉️ om is the symbol of primordial sound of universe.
Isn't the Swastika located in the big dipper throughout the year? As it rotates around the Pole Star it creates a Swastika..
Swastika in Hinduism different from Nazis.... It is inverted.
The last story about circumventing earth was also depicted in wrong light. Lord Kartikeya mocked Lord Ganesha that he is fat and unworthy. Lord Kartikeya had won several wars and felt nothing can surmount strength. When put forward the challenge to circumvent earth he put in all his strength whereas Lord Ganesha did smart work instead of hard work because technically Shiva and Parvati are manifestation of Matter and Energy and Earth is made up of them. Together they form the Universe. This story teaches us to not jump to conclusion and that wisdom is the greatest strength.

Scared Kuber went To Shiva and Prayed him to Stop his Son after making Kuber Realise his Mistake Parvati (Mother of Ganesh ) Presented Kuber With a bowl of Rice,Kuber in disbelief asked Parvati if it was a Joke but Parvati assured that this would satisfy Ganesh's hunger and it did, and after Ganesh came to his senses and saddened by the destruction he caused in his rage Blessed Kuber......

Too many problems in the video that arose out of the necessity to take shortcuts. Parvati is literally all life, as she is the purest manifestation of Devi or the Goddess principle. So injuring a even a cat ends up injuring her. Ganesha circumnavigated his parents because his parents are literally the male and female principle of the world and together they make up the whole world. So it wasn't impishness or filial piety, it was understanding the nature of existence. These are a few. Myths tend to have a lot of different interpretations but they should align with the parent culture.

Cannot thank you enough for sheding this sun on me oh kindred spirit!
There was a store in my town I was told I should visit. I couldn’t find it but I told myself I would. Originally I went to buy some tarot cards and as I was passing by some statues it was as if someone said “hey look” I look right at a red Ganesha statue. I couldn’t stop staring it but I didn’t want to go over my budget so I kept walking. As I was paying I felt nauseous like I had to buy it and I couldn’t leave without it. I bought it and is now with me
Ohhh wow
do u like ganesha
Why are so many of the retellings of this story bent on down playing Parvati's power and her rage? Every single time I hear this retelling from modern sources they say 'oh she was so upset. '
Yeah she was upset but the reason anything got done is because she's so powerful that she was destroying the entire universe in her rage. Give the woman her due, she freaked out every single God in the pantheon and They begged to have the head restored to the boy. If you're going to retell the stories show some respect the females in the pantheon, eh?
Women should
Tell the women's stories
Not be silent, waiting for a
Man to tell the women's stories
Free Speech is a Human Right
Yes ?
I mean, cool, its her rage she found ganesha's head chopped off that made people scurry around for a head, but I think we understand what happened. What you want is a overexaggerated commotion over a detail that knew that a cherished thing can upset a powerful being. I see your "rage" about it, but i think theres no point in waving a finger at people who are trying to be modestly moderate with the story.
@Hellen Mek your just white knighting because she was triggered .Stop simping
Just enjoy the friggin story. Thats the point.
@@thethreespikes9737 it's part of one of the biggest religions on the planet. So it's not "just a story" to over a billion people.
If i was hindu i would pray to him.
There is no concept of religion in sanatan dharma(Hinduism). Gods create us and they love us.

Where can I learn more about Ganesh, would like to study and learn
it's better to go on a trip to south India for that there are many Ganesh temples that say the story of Ganesha in detail or myself can also.
Its crazy 3weeks ago I found a beautiful elephant wooden head at the gas station on pump #13.
A month before that I found a brand new stuffed elephants push toy .
Aw man. It was all good till you implied that toddler Ganesha wasn't genuine when he ran around his parents 3 times calling them his world. You're missing the whole point of the story.
I think we all know what his parents ment when he told both of them to circle the world... So it was a great gesture but come on..
@@shizukousapostle1stapostle710 actually no, hindu stories usually imply some philosophy and it clearly says in almost every hindu myth that Ganesha thought his parents were the world and rightly so, Shiva and Parvathi are the creators and destroyers in hinduism... Shiva is nirakar or in english translation the void before anything existed in the whole universe and shakti is energy that created everything ...
Siddarth Reddy good too see people know this stuff actually
Shiva and Shakti are the divine Masculine and Divine Feminine.. Hence the ultimate creator and destroyer.. Hence they are the 'world' and the 'universe'
@@siddarth3955 "Myth"?! Really bro?
I do love elephants very much as it can be part of my ethnic heritage from my indian paternal grandma and also it’s because It’s Human Like Personality, superior touch and see behaviour, Being Big as a overcoming fear and inferior and Long trunk representing Muscular unique grace and Majesty. Despite being a Muslim, I don’t worship Ganesha and elephants but I revere elephants as gods creation and gift.
I wish to learn more why me and other people love and revere elephants for culture reasons. Why do I find elephants have this grace behaviours??
You pronounce Parvati like “poverty” and it’s really distracting
accents are clearly untranslatable to you
lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
And also you pronounce Shiva is a "Destroyer", Which is right of course but seems Distracting.
Shut tf up bit#h
From the animal Kingdom it is the elephant that is most intelligent and wise. That's why shiva gave him an elephant head.
Why would shiva replaced the boy's head with an elephant head. He could fixed the head back to the way it was. Or because shiva finds elephant are more intelligent than human ?
@@azureoverlord9346 because human face has ego which is not good for any gods
@@rajatsoni3763 By turning his face into elephant head would rid of the ego ? It doesn't make any sense. Ego are not from head but from our heart. Shiva only reshaped/replaced his head into an elephant. Its like only the outside are changed not inside. Why bother,though ? Elephants are not the smartest animal let alone wise. The smartest land animal is chimpanzee. Sorry i was just trying to grasp the reason why shiva chose elephant head instead other animal. You said the reason was human face has an ego really doesn't make any sense at all
@@azureoverlord9346 you seem to see things as simply black and white with no grey in between
@@Kisakadee Pardon me ? What make you think that ? I'm just curious not trying to offended anyone. Sorry if my question were overboard
I’m Indian and I’m very happy that you mentioned that last story.
It happens to be my favorite too!
😊
Excellent video!
It would have been interesting to hear his place in the Jain and Buddhist cosmology too, since they exist alongside and are practiced and revered simultaneously to the Hindu cosmology.
Wasn't Lord Ganesha also one of the Buddha's friends and protectors as he journeyed the land seeking wisdom? Did not Ganesha assume a place as Vinakya, the Buddha's protector?
He is after all the god of wisdom and success.
LOL 😂😂😂 I don't understand why some mordern day Buddhists copy hindus gods ,vedas ,concept of reincarnation, karma ,dharma etc and distort them 😂😂😂😂
@@pritsingh9766 nor do i understand why Hindu Ultra Nationalists have absolutely no idea how history and society actually developed beyond their own insistence that "Hindus achieved everything alone".
Firstly, I'm not Buddhist mate.
These gods are revered by Buddhists because they are the gods of the Buddhist tradition too.
Essentially Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism are exactly the same tradition?
Because centuries of Hindus and Buddhists have practiced both traditions simultaneously, from Ashoka, through the Gupta Dynasty, the Majapahits, the Palas, the Tibetan Empires, Chinese and Japanese Buddhism?
Maybe learn something that might be accepted fact in a modern, secular university, before letting your Hindu nationalist sense of superiority get the better of you.
Just a tip.
I can explain that to you, without being rude and such in earlier years pre-Buddism many Hindu kings from India ruled over many parts of southeast Asia and China to an extent Buddhism is technically a side branch of Hinduism as Buddha himself according to some Hindu scholars is depicted as the 9th incarnation of Vishnu why is Vinayaka a protector of the buddha because there is a correction the first person to get Ganesh a replacement head was Vishnu, not the demons or shiva. Vishnu adored Ganesha he is technically a god-father for Ganesha and uncle as well. if you see in Hindu stories sometimes even Vishnu calls Parvati as his sister so you can see how it goes. so it's common in every Asian religion you can see Ganesha was one of the main gods since all have the same basis of Hinduism (all belief in Nature). Many times you see even in Vishnu stories that his incarnations are a devotee of Shiva and shiva's incarnations are a devotee of Vishnu. Well, Hinduism stories are quite long so it takes a while to explain actually.
@@xenzorygames4116 No, you have a very obviously Hindu nationalist belief that everyone and everything within India must subscribe to your beliefs and ideals. But like any Hindu nationalist, you subscribe to a warped telling of history. You're also laughably incorrect.
It's no stretch to explain that Buddhism did emerge from a background of Hindu culture. That's where Buddha was born and raised. But it doesn't prove your point.
Also, Hindu kings from India never ruled in Southeast Asia and China. You need to relearn your history. Hinduism and Buddhism reached Southeast Asia by maritime trade around the 1st century CE. These Empires were ruled by native dynasties. Buddhism is well recorded as having reached China by the Silk Road. The only Indian King is the legend of Ashoka's son becoming King of Khotan, which is almost certainly apocryphal.
Even your explanation is absurd: "according to some Hindu scholars Buddha is depicted as the 9th incarnation of Vishnu". That doesn't prove Buddhism is a side branch of Hinduism. It just proves that some Hindus like to presume they own Buddhism. But it has a similar level of logic as a Chinese Taoist professor explaining that some of the Indian deities emerged around China, so Hinduism is actually Taoism. But that's untrue.
Buddhists don't teach this as part of their creed, so it's simply absurd that you would state that this proves your point. And Buddhists don't have any obligation to accept it.
Hindus don't have the right to speak for Buddhists (or Jains, or Sikhs), who do follow many Hindu precepts but teach many different ideas. This is the same as Jews, Christians and Muslims don't speak for each other. It's simply absurd.
Nothing you're saying proves anything more than you're a Hindu nationalist.
@@TheSamuraijim87 I never said I was a Hindu nationalist in the first place and I never said Hindu's own Buddism I do not know why you are taking it that way. because only the northern part of India is actually thought to the world the Chola dynasty conquered parts of Thailand, Srilanka, even south Indian princesses ruled south Korea and Japan for over 40 years it is even considered that some dynasties had Indian blood in them as well. even the largest temple in the world is built in Combodia originally made for lord shiva now became a Buddist Temple after long years even that temple was built by a king of the Chola dynasty which most of the north Indians do not even consider since most of northern India was ruled by Iranians and afghans so it isn't considered as a rule for you I guess Hindu's usually do not destroy cultures and traditions like Islamic rulers and Christian Rulers do I just said they had shared Gods and some had extended history for Example Hanuman and Sun Wukong is considered the same because the story happened after Ramayana and even Buddha is considered as the 9th incarnation of Vishnu.
Guys do the japa of mantra called" OM GAM GANAPATAYE NAMAHA" it is called Ganesha eka akshara mantra.repeat this mantra 10,000 times a day u will see wonders happening
It is not about religions. Find you own God within...U. A belief in many gods, which are seen as manifestations of a single unity. ...
a preference for one deity while not excluding or disbelieving others.
a belief in the universal law of cause and effect (karma) and reincarnation. Practice love and kindness to accomplish enlightenment 🙏🏽

I’ve been meaning to find more about Lord Ganesha as I’ve been seeing him pop up more in my life so thank you for posting this. Om gam ganapataye namaha 🤍
What a beautiful video. Thank you. Om shri Ganesha namaha.
we need stories of vishnu and his wife and other major Gods
Another interpretation of why Ganesh did what He did was to get His father's attention. Shiva was always the aloof, absent Father. In this story on one side was all the material wealth in the world and on the other was His Father with a bowl of oats & nothing else. And He chose his Father. This syncs with His rebellious yet entangled relationship with Shiva. Also, syncs with the story of Kartik & Ganesh on their respective journeys around the universe. Kartik took His peacock & went around the universe while Ganesh just walked around His Father & Mother. That story displays His intelligence and where He focuses His good will. Home. Family. Prosperity in unity of home & family.

@Tim Keir No, Hinduism--by Definition--has nothing to do w/ any of the Abrahamic Religions / Theology. Assigning "Satanism" to anything requires an Abrahamic POV--which is irrelevant to Hindus. Ie, Non Sequitur, but nice try!

One of the best stories is the one in which Ravana was carrying a Shivalinga which he wasn't supposed to keep down, and he had to take a leak, and hamesha appeared in disguise and offered to hold the shivalinga for him, only to keep it down at the first chance. Naughty AF.
🙌🙏😂😍😍😍
I had an actual audible chuckle, a true lol, when you said Ganesha 'stored' the sweets in his stomach.
Bhagavaan Sri Ganesh!
And I have a small statue of him on my nightstand.

I keep forgetting that the Swazika was a prominent symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism before it became associated with the Nazis, leading to a lot of jarring moments when I see pictures like the one at 0:20.
Namaste 🙏 ❤
The story of Lord Ganesha is amazing
Ganesha: *eats all Kabeera's food*
Kabeera: "That's fine, everything's fine."
Ganesha: *eats all Kabeera's money*
Kabeera: "Annoying, but i'm cool with this."
Ganesha: *tries to eat Kabeera*
Kabeera: "Whoa, whoa, whoa, NOT cool, bro!"
Ganesha: "Sorry, i was trying to teach you not to be so selfish."
It is Kubera
I am a Hind so I already know all of this and I am a huge Krishna fan I have the most knowledge about Krishna in my whole family
i kinda laughed when i saw that ganesha smite pic
First time stumbling across this video
The symbolism of this Deity being born of the destroyer and poverty, whose soul concept is survival and wealth… beautiful!
