Thought
Red hued guard of world adored
Stopped the path of Shiva Lord
Sheared of obstinate blocking head
Replaced with Cosmic Mind instead
Ears for cosmic sound to hear
Trunk sweeps obstacles clear
Eyes shine through lotus shape
Offering abundance - all to take
On golden throne belly curved
Leg is bent - half tusk preserved
Embodied thus in playful form
Manifesting of primordial Om
Divinity infused in earth’s red clay
Round sweets offered on this day
Garlanded neck with flowers hung
Lord of beings’ worlds are strung
Prayer
O Lord, whatever hurdles and obstacles are in the way, you can remove them easily. Grant not that there may be no obstacles, but that I use your strengths and skills to sportingly surmount them. Let the obstacle of ego be reverently replaced by Thee.
