Shree Shubhakruth naama samvatsara 

Bhaadrapada Shuddha Chaviti,

Shree Vinaayaka Chaviti, Shubhaabhinandanalu.....🙏💐🎇😊🎆🍕🍧🎂🍨

Sadguru Shree ChaaganTi gaaru has blessed all the listeners with the Vinaayaka tattwam / Vaibhawam in his multiple discourses of which I have talked about a few in my earlier posts on the occasion of Vinaayaka Chaviti festival....

Sanaatana Dharmam celebrates the concept of divinty as per the 'Panchaayatana Poojaa Vidhaanam' classification blessed by Shree AadiShankaraachaarya that classifies the divine worship in to 5 specific entities that in turn represents and symbolizes all the known and unknown gods and demigods mentioned by many an ancient literature / itihaasam / Puraanam etc ....

"Gaanaapatyam" for lord Ganapathi.....

"Shaakteayam" for goddess Shakti / Ambika...

"Shaivam" for lord Shiva...

"Vaishnavam" for lord Vishnu.....

"Souram" for lord Surya.....

Now that HH Shree AadiShankaraachaarya is extolled as "Shanmatha sthaapanaachaarya",

the 6th entity known as "Koumaaram" for Lord KumaaraSwaami is represented and recognized by the "Deepaaraadhana" performed before any kind of worship / prayer...

Sky

Air 

Fire

Water 

Earth

Soul [ The concept of Aatma / Jeevaatma / Paramaatma representing a human being's realm ]

are the 6 entities that constitute this entire Universe.....

As per the Yogic terminologies, these entities are a symbolic representation and an abode of the below mentioned Paanchabhoutika tattwa samanvayam....  

Sky :  Shakti tattwam...

Air : Vishnu Tattwam...

Fire : KumaaraSwaami tattwam

Water : Shiva tattwam....

Earth : Ganapathi tattwam..... 

Soul / Aaatma : Soorya tattwam.....

While each primordial entity has its own greatness and magnanimity, the Sky and the Earth, i.e., the Shakti and the Ganapati tattwam are considered as paripoorNa tattwam for that they intrinsically posses all the other 4 paanchabhoutika tattwams within them.... 

Both the sky and the earth always remain as unexplored entities owing to their immeasurable vastness and unpredictability or randomness...

Earth has Space in it.....

( underneath caves / forts / cavities / tunnels...)

Earth has Air in it....

(various gases are obtained from earth and seas by the oil and natural gas refineries)

Earth has Fire in it....

(the lava in the volcanoes / natural hot water springs in places like Kedarnath etc....) 

Earth has Water in it and on it....

and thus sarth is essentially an amalgamation of all the 5 primordial elements akin to the sky.... 

However, while the sky remains intangible and immeasurable and thus unfathomable to a larger extent...,

earth remains tangible / measurable / and thus fathomable to a larger extent... 

and thus the Ganapathi Tattwam symbolized by the Pruthwitattwam is the easiest and practically perceivable Tattwam to many a research scholar in the physical realm and in the meta-physical realm as well.... 

The Mruttikaa sooktam states  

" मृत्तिके देहि मे पुष्टिं त्वयि सर्वं प्रतिष्ठितम्। "

which implies Earth is an embodiment of everything and thus shall bestow strength....

मृत्तिकासूक्तम्             

                  (महानारायणोपनिषत्)

भूमि-र्धेनुर्धरिणी लोकधारिणी ।

उद्धृतोऽसि वराहेण कृष्णेन शतबाहुना।

मृत्तिके  हर मे पापं यन्मया दुष्कृतं कृतम्।

मृत्तिके ब्रह्मदत्ताऽसि काश्यपेनाभिमन्त्रिता।

मृत्तिके देहि मे पुष्टिं त्वयि सर्वं प्रतिष्ठितम्।

मृत्तिके प्रतिष्ठितं सर्वं तन्मे निणुदि मृत्तिके।

तया हतेन पापेन गच्छामि परमां गतिम्॥  

Gajaanana ( the resurrected form of the actual Vinaayaka manifesed from Turmeric smeared by PaarvatiDevi )

having an elephant's head after the super human head was lost by Rudra's Trident hit, is a symbolic representation of the missing Sahasraara and Aagnya Chakra positions with only the other 5 namely,

5.Vishuddha Chakram

(Sky element : Trigger  "Hamm" Beejaaksharam)

4. Anaahata Chakram

(Air element : Trigger  "Yamm" Beejaaksharam)

3. Manipoora Chakram

(Fire element : Trigger  "Ramm" Beejaaksharam)

2. SwaadhiShtaana Chakram

(Water element : Trigger  "Vamm" Beejaaksharam)

1. Moolaadhaara Chakram

(Earth element : Trigger  "Lamm" Beejaaksharam)

being intact in the new form of Gajaanana.....

The other two top node Chakras essentially signify the

Jeevaatma - Aagnya Chakram 

Paramaatma - Sahasraara Chakram

(Amateurs without proper know-how are not supposed to delve deeper in to the concepts of BeejaaksharaSanghaatam as explained by sadguru Shree ChaaganTi gaaru for that they can become explosive if not handled carefully....i.e., handling the various inner energies that result out of the various Beejaaksharasanghaatam (permutations & combinations) becomes difficult for that it would be akin to handing a heavily pressurised fire hose instead of handling a normal water pipe...)

The new elephant's face brought from the planet earth, which essentially is an abode of Shree MahaaLakshmi, signifies the combined form of Jeevaatma+Paramaatma

(Aagnya and Sahasraara Chakram unified) as a one single entity propounded by the Adwaita Tattwam...

Hence, Lord Gajaanana symbolizes Aadidaiwam / Paradaiwam / Ihadaiwam / Aadyantarahitadaiwam / Paramaatma / Paratattwam that is within the reach of one and all as prayed by the devotee......

As per the yogic spirituality, Lord Ganesha is considered as the MoolaadhaaraChakraadhidevata by specifically attributing him to the Pruthwi Tattwam.....

The 5 primordial elements of

Sky, Air, Fire, Water, and Earth, amalgamated in specific ratios form the entire universe and are thus spread across the same.....

However, they are there just as an object to be considered by someone and thus the concept of Jeevaatma and Paramaatma arises when the concept of life and beyond is brought in to the picture.....

Hence, Ganapathi Aaraadhana as per the yogic terminology gives a devotee a good balance and control over the 5 basic primordial elements only after which they can aspire to go higher in the spiritual saadhanaa kramam/order.....

Let's talk in simpler words......

A typical enthusiast wants to drive a super bike in its top most 7th gear which will cruise it on the roads like a supersonic jet plane...However, it would be an appropriate endeavour only when that person knows how to and can handle the 1st gear driving and the incremental switch to the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and then to the top most 6th and 7th gear and also the down shift in the descending order in a balanced manner. Else it will spoil the bike and might hurt the person riding the bike.....

So would be the case with our body, which is akin to a bike or a supersonic jet plane and our jeevaatma inside the body akin to that bike rider or a supersonic jet plane's pilot......

Doing experiments with bike driving is somekind of ok ok stuff but doing experiments with super sonic jet plane's take off would certainly be highly devastating because of the altitude factors involved.....

Quite similarly, Pruthwi Chakram would allow a person to throughly establish a balance and thus a proper command on oneself which will then make it an appropriate traverse towards the higher levels...

Lord Ganapathi, is the bestower of

"You name it and he gives it"...

knowledge/wisdom,energies,

money/name/fame/riches and so on and so forth....because he is an "all-in-one"....

One who knows how to drive a bike properly in the initial 1st gear would naturally be adept at all the upper gears with a little bit of know how on the speed and the corresponding acceleration factors involved...

For the people living in the mortal plane, i.e.., the human beings, the first and foremost aspect is to be successful in attaining all the basic needs required to live a decent human life and then gradually progress towards the elite spiritual life..... 

(because "Dharmam, Artham, Kaamyam, Moksham...." is the order said in the sankalpam... and as explained by sathguru Shree ChaaganTi gaaru every devotee would recite the pooja sankalpam asking for all these as the to be attained chaturvidha purushaardhamulu...... )

And thus Ganapathi, the Pruthwi tattwa Moolaadhaarachakraadhidevata's worship is of utmost importance to one and all in order to be first successful in all the generic worldly aspects only after which one would be able to grow wise enough to be successful in the higher order spiritual aspects required to transcend the barriers of this mortal plane to findout the true self..

॥ वातापि गणपतिं भजेहं ॥

(श्री मुत्तुस्वामि दीक्षितर्)

वातापि गणपतिं भजेऽहं

वारणाश्यं वरप्रदं श्री ।

भूतादि संसेवित चरणं

भूत भौतिक प्रपञ्च भरणं ।

वीतरागिणं विनुत योगिनं

विश्वकारणं विघ्नवारणं ।

पुरा कुम्भ सम्भव मुनिवर प्रपूजितं त्रिकोण मध्यगतं

मुरारि प्रमुखाद्युपासितं मूलाधार क्षेत्रस्थितं

परादि चत्वारि वागात्मकं प्रणव स्वरूप वक्रतुण्डं

निरन्तरं निखिल चन्द्रखण्डं निजवामकर विद्रुतेक्षुखण्डं ।

कराम्बुज पाश बीजापूरं

कलुषविदूरं भूताकारं

हरादि गुरुगुह तोषित बिम्बं

हंसध्वनि भूषित हेरम्बं ।
