WHAT'S IN A NAME? ---- The 108 Sacred Names of Ganesha.
I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT ORIGINATED FROM, BUT THE LIST WHICH FOLLOWS HAS BEEN CIRCULATING AROUND THE WEB FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS, AND IS NOW ATTACHED TO DOZENS OF BLOGS. Instead of merely adding to the online clutter by repeating it as is, I intend here to rather elaborate on it, add value to it. Like my friends in Soka Gakkai in Japan, my mission in life is to add value, do what I do best and link to the rest. And in the process, put my knowledge to the test: 108 Names of Lord Ganesha (with meanings) 1 Akhurath - One who has Mouse as His Charioteer 2 Alampata - Ever Eternal Lord 3 Amit - Incomparable Lord 4 Anantachidrupamayam - Infinite and Consciousness Personified 5 Avaneesh - Lord of the whole World 6 Avighna - Remover of Obstacles 7 Balaganapati - Beloved and Lovable Child 8 Bhalchandra - Moon-Crested Lord 9 Bheema - Huge and Gigantic

purushottam (purshu@gmail.com) says: "What a comprehensive view of the gods of india..really enjoyed it. I thank u for the clarity this article has given me in my seeking.
"I used to be a die hard atheist since childhood-praying to Shiva, vishnu, krishna, ganesha, saraswati, hanuman etc. I beleived in ONE omnipotent,omniscient, omnipresent God.
"But my recent experience with a spiritual master and organization took me towards Advaita philosophy-which makes possible the existence of many gods and the god inherent in every one of us. With the possibility of man becoming GOD one day, it has obviated my belief in 'one GOD for all'.
"So my allegiance shifted from Dvaita(dualistic) to the Advaita(non dualistic) shcheme of things, where there is no radical difference between man and god as man is god's low frequency existence,capable of reaching godhood by various means(bhakti,gyan,karma,meditation,etc).
"All this was fine till i realized that this advaita concept of GOD is effectively atheism in the eyes of a monotheist.
"Nevermind, 'reailty is relative'-I said to myself and continued my journey inwards.("One should have the courage of following truth to wherever it takes").
" "WIth my beleif in God shaken, I decided to test my second most prized belief-the concept of Atman through the Advaitic Lens...."
