Greetings to all on the auspicious occasion of 'Ganesh Chaturthi'.

- निर्विघ्नं कुरु में देव सर्व कार्येषु सर्वदा - is a common and also an interesting prayer of Ganeshji. It's meaning changes depending on how you interpret it.
- It is basically a prayer for a life full of excitement & liveliness.
- It doesn't request God to bless us with a life free from problems - that is the understanding of the weak & ignorant; the wise on the other hand just imply that 'O Deva ! May I become so wise & strong that for me the so called problem is no problems'. Obstacles are challenges, and they give meaning, purpose & excitement to an otherwise dull & dragging life.

Om Gam Ganapataye Namah !
