GANESHA IV:

Through my personal research as well, I found a stunning personal relationship with God Ganesha.

I was told that He is my Soul!!! He is inside of me  

I still have had a hard time to convince myself about the very personal relationship.  Amidst internal turmoil as anyone could imagine, I pray that the telling is true.  Any being would wannabe Him some how.  He is a top God with His own right and merits.

The soul reincarnation was confirmed by Preah Beida Tep Ek, Preah Karl and several top divine and Boramey icons I have met.  Again, I still need to see proof some days as I am of scientific and technical educational and professional background.  I believe the telling but would appreciate real life proofs J

That was a reason I picked His picture as my KW pic. I love talking about Him.  I have fun doing so :)

GANESHA V:

"Om Shri Ganeshaya Namah".  

This is a Sanskrit phrase.  It means that I worship God Ganesha and pray for all greatest Blessings. By this Sanskrit phrase, I Invoke and Surrender to God Ganesha, the Auspicious Remover of Obstacles.

“Ganesha (Gaṇeśa; also spelled Ganesa or Ganesh and also known as Ganapati, Vinayaka, and Pillaiyar, is one of the best-known and most worshipped deities in the Hindu pantheon.

His image is found throughout India. Hindu sects worship him regardless of other affiliations. Devotion to Ganesha is widely diffused and extends to Jains, Buddhists, and beyond India.

Although he is known by many other attributes, Ganesha's elephant head makes him easy to identify.

Ganesha is widely revered as the Remover of Obstacles and more generally as Lord of Beginnings and Lord of Obstacles, patron of arts and sciences, and the deva of intellect and wisdom. He is honored at the start of rituals and ceremonies and invoked as Patron of Letters during writing sessions.”

Now, I am using His image also.

Is there a story behind one broken Tusk? And Why he is holding it?

hemsoo,

Good question.

I am not clear about the one tusk story.  I read across it and have to look up more.

Could you fill in and provide the story behind God Ganesha's one task story and what it means as he hold it?

GANESHA VI:

"Who is Lord Ganesha?

Elephant-headed Ganesha is Lord of beginnings, and he himself is symbolized as a transition point for he is neither man nor elephant.

Friendly and chubby Lord Ganesha holds a dish filled with sweets, and is portrayed as the image of great abundance, generosity and good fortune.

 Being Lord of beginnings, he is present at the threshold between the old that must give way to allow the new to manifest. Great energies of potential exist at the boundaries of transformation between one event and another.

Lord Ganesha is the first of all the deities to be invoked before every ceremony, ritual, or act of importance; especially when events are unpredictable and there is great change. To remove all obstacles, so that the most beneficial transformation can occur, and the birth of the fresh newness can manifest, is Lord Ganesha’s gift.

He is grantor of success and holds his right hand up in abhaya mudra as the blessing of fearlessness and good fortune for his devotees.

Lord Ganesha’s form is highly symbolic for his large ears, long nose, and piercing eyes represent the senses which must be controlled in order to master life without distraction.

His big head is all knowing with a sharp, keen intellect for listening to the truth of ancient wisdom. Ganesha acts as a symbol to remind us to connect to the Divine, and it is he who guides our thoughts and emotions towards prayerful contemplation.

His big belly is able to consume and digest all the worldly desires through the devotional practices of yoga. If you attempt to do life by yourself, and ignore the Divine presence within yourself and all things in life, it will be hard for you to properly succeed.

Ganesha is the embodiment of grace. He protects and guides, removes all obstacles, and is good fortune and abundance is symbolic form.

His image is found in the first chakra, for he is the gate-keeper and guards the doorway to the spiritual energy of the Goddess Kundalini.

Veayoo,

Thank you for the answers.

Is God Ganesha a Boramey of yours?

Do you talk Boramey messages via the internet???.........

VY...I do not have answer to your question, however please note that the Khmer GANESHA GOD has only 2 arms...

 I have seen God Ganesha statutes with 16 arms in Cambodia.

Hi hemsoo,

I will get the stories about how God Ganesha got to have only one Tusk left on his body.

As to how many arms he posseses, I have seen and collected 2 arms, 4 arms and 16 arms statutes.

Because I love Him so much, I bought several God Ganesha  statutes from Cambodia within the last two years. From the Market of Tuol Tompoung, Phnom Penh.

I bought many of them for myself and also for my relatives. 

My Ganesha statutes were blessed/ Abhiseked by top Gods such as Preah Beida God tep Ek/ Shiva and Preah Karl/ Preah Me Kali/ Kali etc.  The best blessings in the worlds.

I got small stone statutes with 2 arms.

I got small stone statutes with 4 arms.

I got a small copper statute with 16 arms/ 1 head, sitting right in front of me now.

A month ago, I brought to the US a statute with 4 arms weighting 23 pounds.

I wanted to buy a large Wood (Beng wood) statute that was for sale at a store North of the Royal Palace about 2 years ago.  Someone beat me and took it to Wat Tuol Reachea where the tallest Buddha statutes were being built by a Lokta.

All the above statutes were made by new and young artists recently.

Both Cambodia and India have God Ganeha statutes with various number of arms.

to my understanding, having multiple arms denotes power. so, the more the better.

btw, Sakal, do you see the statues in person? i see them via video of WTPRC. very impressive.

Reksmay,

I went to Wat Tuol Reachea trying to meet the Lokta.  He was not there.

I saw the Ganesha wood statute that I wanted to buy and keep in my livingroom.  I saw the tall Buddha statutes as well.

Do you have any Internet link to the WTPRC you referred to?

Reksmay,

Yes, I saw the Ganesha statute in person, with my own eyes.

I have not seen with my naked eyes a friend by the name of Reksmay yet :) 

You are on my wish list, buddy!

Interesting...I thought only Presh Vishnu has many arms...Presh Ganesha's arms is on my list to observe when I am in Cambodia next week...

My interest is The Khmer Buddha protected by the 7 heads Naga

Sunsett,

Yes, I try to relay Boramey messages over the Internet, like in KW.

I do not do reading of a particular individual fate or lucks like what a Khmer Kru would.  I am not a Kru yet.  I hope I’ll be able to do that some days…

For now, I am fulfilling a personal promise with Borameys.  I promised them to talk about the Boramey world that I got to know.

Through personal research and contacts, I found out that the Khmers had a great legacy that Westerners enjoy calling superstition.

The communist Khmer Rouge, French educated, tried to brainwash Khmers to believe that parents are worthless to kids, but the Angkar (Khmer Rouge government) was.  Likewise, Westerners have been quite successful in brainwashing Cambodians to believe that their ancestors/ Borameys are of superstition.

Having been through Cambodian, French and American education myself, I have looked into the so called superstition. I have found out that Khmer Borameys are real and extremely valuable.

I disagree with Westerners who have tried to wash my brain these years and to have me swear at my beloved ancestors and Borameys (like God Ganesha, Preah Beida God Tep Ek, Preah Me Goddess Kali and others).

I am defending them as they have defended and protected me.  I relay their messages.
