The Story of Hindu Elephant God Ganesha : Fantasy or True

“Let there be no compulsion in Religion: truth stands out clear from error: whoever rejects evil and believes in Allah (one God) has grasped the most trustworthy hand hold, that never breaks. and Allah hears, and knows all things.”
(Qur’an, Al-Baqarah 2:256)

Its important to each and every person to understand the basic scriptures of their Religion or faith  in light of truth, Scientific Facts and Modern Scientific Discoveries because our Faith and belief completely depend upon these scripture. also its matter of  our Salvation.

I am not forcing or requesting any one to convert to Islam, but just request to read and understand the basic scripture of the faith or religion you are following, because scripture itself speaks out if its true or falsehood. One will not be able to judge a book by just either reading cover page or front page or any one page of book. Similarly one would not able to understand their faith or religion is true or false until & unless he/she will reads and understands the Basic scripture which represent his/her faith, also its matter of his/her salvation

Almighty Allah had made Mandatory to every muslim give to the true message [Holy scripture Quran which was sent to his Slave and Prophet Muhammad Pbuh] of Islam to each and every person around the world.

One God ,One Human Race, So Almighty God has not given rights to any Individual or group who ever may be to  destroy his beautiful creation of  human race in name of  religion, caste, tribes etc. So every one of us should condemn and fight together all kinds of terrorism and extremism. Let’s join our hands to gather and spread message of peace.

[Story taken from Shiva Purana]

The door to Parvati’s place was guarded by two of Shiva’s companions, Nandi and Bhringi.  But Parvati’s companions, Jaya and Vijaya, didn’t like this at all.  They thought that there should be a guard who would be answerable to Parvati rather than to Shiva.  It was Parvati’s place, not Shiva’s.  Moreover, Shiva was in the habit of walking in at awkard moments, and Nandi and Bringi never stopped Shiva.  Jaya and Vijaya asked Parvati to do something about this.

Critic Objection : Normal after marriage husband will have complete rights over his wife and her properties and vice versa, So he doesn’t required the permission her companions, again if some other ladies are present in his house, If Shiva was the ruler of universe, then he would foresee  from his divine power and make sure that every thing is normal , so that he may enter inside the house. else he have to knock the door. thats the basic common sense and also ethic. If he himself  ignored all common sense and ethic being ruler of universe, then how can he except normal humans to follow it. this also proves that he himself encouraging others to do sins.

Parvati took some clay of a pond and fashioned the clay into a very handsome son.  She dressed the son in beautiful clothes and jewellry.  He was named Ganesha.  Parvati told Ganesha, You are my son.  Stand at the gate and do not allow anyone to enter. 
Ganesha picked up a rod and began his duty as sentry.  Parvati went to have a bath. 
Soon Shiva turned up with his companions.  Where are you going? asked Ganesha.  You cannot pass.  My mother is having her bath. I am Shiva, answered Shiva. 
Who is Shiva? retorted Ganesha. I don’t know of any Shiva.  You cannot go in.

Shiva tried to ignore Ganesha and enter, but Ganesha started to beat Shiva with the rod.  Shiva then asked his companions to remove this upstart.  But they only got thrashed by Ganesha in the process.  Nandi tried to grasp one of Ganesha’s legs and Brhringi the other.  But Ganesha uprooted a wooden door and beat them so hard that they fled.  The gods and the sages all came to see what the uproar was about. 
Shiva told Brahma, Why don’t you try to pacify that creature? 
Brahma advanced to reason with Ganesha.  But Ganesha didn’t know Brahma; he thought that this was another one of Shiva’s companions.  He therefore grabbed Brahma and tore off Brahma’s beard by the handful.  Brahma fled in pain. 
This had become a matter where Parvati felt her pride to be at stake.  So she kept Ganesha supplied with weapons.  The gods attacked Ganesha with all sorts of weapons.  He drove them back. 

Critic objection :  Ganesh was not biological son of  Parvathi and Shiva, He was just created from Clay of Pond, If Suppose Ganesh had killed her husband Shiva, Since Parvathi took issue as matter of  her pride and supplied weapons to Ganesh, then Parvathi would become widow, so no women would like to become a widow. this is just author’s foolish imagination.

Vishnu told Shiva, This fellow can only be killed with some trickery.  Otherwise, he seems to be invincible. Ganesha flung a mace at Visnu and hurt him considerably.  He struck down Shiva’s bow with another mace.  Vishnu and Ganesha then began to fight, with the sudarshana chakra being used by Vishnu and maces by Ganesha.  While this duel raged, Shiva crept up stealthily from behind and cut off Ganesha’s had with his trishula (trident).  This was the trickery that Vishnu had planned for.

When Parvati learnt of Ganesha’s death, her ire was roused.  She got ready to destroy the universe and everyone was alarmed.  Narada was sent to Parvati as a messager.  He was to try and pacify Parvati.  But Parvati agreed to relent only if two conditions were satisfied.  The first condition was that Ganesha should be brought back to life.  The second condition was that Ganesha should be accepted as a god and should enjoy all divine rights.

Critic Objection : again here proves that these Trimurti doesn’t had any divine power to foresee, what will be the outcome of their action.again  if the Trimurti themselves not able to control a small kid made from clay, then how can they able to control this unimaginable universe. again if  Parvathi had also the power to destroy the universe and if these Trimurti not able to control her, then what kind of creator or sustainer or destroyer these gods were.

These conditions wre readily accepted.  Ganesha’s headless body was cleaned and bathed.  But the head could not be found.  It had been lost in the heat of the battle.  Shiva sent his companions out with the head of the first living being that they saw.  This happened to be an elephant with one tusk.  The elephant’s head was stuck onto Ganesha’s body and Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva combined their powers to bring back life to the dead body. 
Shiva accepted Ganesha as his son.  He also made Ganesha the lord of all his companions, the ganas.  That is why the elephant-god is called Ganapati.  It was also decreed that worship to any god would be useless unless it was preceded by prayers to Ganesha. 
Chaturthi tithi is the fourth lunar day.  Krishnapaksha is that part of the lunar fortnight during which the moon wanes.  Since Parvati created Ganesha in the month of Kartika and on chaturthi tithi in krishnapaksha, that is the day on which Ganapati is worshiped.

Critic Objection : the above statement proves that Pravathi took the Trimurti and others gods on  ransom and force Shiva to  accept Ganesh as  his son also forced  to accept Ganesh who was just created from clay of  pond as one of  god. If  she had not took  forceful on ransom, then these gods who were fight each other to establish themselves superior over other definitely would not accept Ganesh has one of god. this  was just the foolishness of author who had glorify his story character GaneshaInfront of supreme rulers of universe , even though Ganesh was  created from clay of pond and  also made his story character Ganesh should be prayed  before all others gods. So brothers and Sister think yourself  their is any logic in praying such a god who was created from clay of pond and forcefully admitting other to accept him as god, even though he was not biological son of Shiva and his wife Parvathi.

Ganesha and Kartikeya Quarrel

Shiva and Parvati had two sons, Ganesha and Kartikeya.  Both sons wanted to get married.  And Shiva and Parvati found it difficult to decide who should be married first.  The other one was bound to feel hurt.  Both the sons were equally dear to them. 
They decided to have a test.  They called Ganesha and Kartikeya to them and said, We have devised a competition.  Both of you have to travel around the world and return here.  Whoever returns first will be married first.  That should be fair and square. 
As soon as these words were out, Kartikeya dashed out on his journey.  But Ganesha tarried and pondered.  He realized that this was a task that was impossible for him to accomplish. He found it difficult enough to travel a couple of miles.

Ganesha found a solution.  First, he bathed.  Then, he made Shiva and Parvati sit on two seats.  He worshipped them and circled them seven times.  After he finished circling them.  Ganesha said, Now please make arrangements for my wedding. 
What do you mean, exclaimed Shiva and Parvati.  Didn’t you hear what we said?  We asked the two of you to travel around the world and come back.  You’d better hurry.  Kartikeya has already left.  If  you don’t take care, he will beat you to it. 
But I have already been round the world seven times, replied Ganesha.  Haven’t I circled the two of you seven times?  The Vedas say that circling one’s parents is the same thing as circling the world.  If you do not wish to argue that the Vedas are wrong, then you have to agree that I have circled the world seven times.

Shiva and Parvati could not very well argue that the Vedas were wrong.  They therefore had to accept Ganesha’s logic.  Arrangements were made for his wedding.  Vishvarua, the son of Kashyapa, had two daughters named Siddhi and Buddhi.  These two were married to Ganesha with a lot of fanfare.  Ganesha and Siddhi had a son named Laksha and Ganesha and Buddhi had a son named Labha.

Kartikeya returned to Kailasa after traveling around the world and discovered that Ganesha was already married and was already the proud father of two children.  He heard the entire story from Narada and felt that he had been cheated.  He decided that he would no longer live with his parents.  He also decided that he would never marry.  That is the reason why Kartikeya is called Kumara, someone who is married. 
Kartikeya began to live on Mount Krouncha.  Shiva goes to visit him there on the day of the newmoon (amavasya) and parvati goes to visit him on the day of the moon (purnima).

Critic Objection : Since Kartikeya had killed Tarakasura because he was born immediate after the marriage of Shiva and Parvathi. then he was the elder and also biological son of Shiva and Parvathi, where as Ganesh was created later from clay of pond was younger son. then according to Ethic and even Vedas the elder son of family should be married first. So Conducting such competition for their marriage itself is unethical and illogically. moreover conducting the marriage of his younger son in absence of elder son of family also ethically, If these supreme ruler of universe not able to do justice for their own sons then how can they will be able to justice for us.

So Brothers and Sister how can you worship  such a God like Ganesh who even not capable of winning of  small competition and cheat his brother by alternate mean[Vedas], if Ganesh had so much knowledge about Veda and ethics and also if  he was really good a individual then he should inform both his parents that according to ethic and Vedas, his elder brother Kartikeya should be married first and also  conduct such competition itself unethical and unlawful. when his parent being the ruler of universe doesn’t had any such knowledge about Vedas and ethics. This proves that here the author had tried to make his story more dramatic and sensational as he had done in his previous story. but its illogical and unlawful.

One of Shiva’s greatest services to the world was to tame the sacred Ganges River, which flows from the Himalayas. At one time, the Ganges passed only through the heavens, leaving the earth dry. After a wise man changed the course of the river, it became a raging torrent and threatened to flood the earth. Shiva stood beneath the river and let its waters wind through his hair to calm its flow.

So logically if the above statement is true that Ganga river was passed only through heavens, leaving the earth dry, then if Ganga had come from heaven to earth for providing relief for peoples of complete earth, then why did Ganga is not flowing through the world instead it flow only in some part of India. Then how the dryness of complete earth reduces if Ganga water has not reached other parts of world, whereas Amazon and Nile are two longest rivers of world,

Once Brahma insulted Lord Shiva and his fifth head teasingly laughed at Lord Shiva. From Lord Shiva came out the Kalabhairava (Black Bhairava) who tore off the fifth head of Lord Brahma. On the entreaties of Lord Vishnu, Shiva pardoned Lord Brahma. But the sin (in the form of a lady) of beheading Lord Brahma followed Kalabhairava everywhere. Also the head of Brahma stuck to him. To keep away the sin and punishment which were chasing him, Kalabhairava entered the city of Benares. The sin could not enter the city. Kalabhairava was made as the Kotwal (Inspector general) of the city of Benares. Kalabhairava rides on a dog. A pilgrimage to Kasi (Benares) is not supposed to be complete without visiting the temple of Kalabhairava.

Brahma considers himself supreme so he had been always argue with Vishnu and Shiva over issue of supremacy. Since Brahma is individual who wrote future of enter universe, this means this guy has complete knowledge of event which are going to take in future. Then how foolishly we wrote his own future in such way that his fifth head teasingly laughed at Lord Shiva and then lord Shiva had knock head of Brahma.

Brothers and Sisters Almighty God himself told us to judge the individual whom we are worshiping is worthy of worship or not. Irrespective of what were your parents, Ancestors and tribes are following. On the day of judgement it’s only you who will face your lord, just like you came alone and you will go alone, all your relatives such as father, mother, wife, children’s etc and your relationship with them will be finished once they have buried you into grave. Then no one will turn towards you. Only your deed either good or bad accompanies you.

Almighty Allah had made Mandatory to every Muslim give to the true message [Holy Scripture Quran which was sent to his Slave and Prophet Muhammad Pbuh] of Islam to each and every person around the world.

Brothers and Sister Even Prophet Muhammad [Peace and blessing upon him] Parents and other family members were Pagan or Idolaters, but both his parents  died at his very early age, So  he was bought up and protected by  his Uncle Abu Talib But His uncle had not embraced  islam,  because his uncle  thought that  what would his ancestors & tribes think about him if he had embraced islam, even though prophet Muhammad tried his level best to convince him the true message of Islam, ” None is worthy of worship But Allah, and that Muhammad is his Slave and Messenger.

Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) two daughters were married to sons of his uncle Abu Lahab who was also a Pagan or Idolater their marriages took place before the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) declared his prophethood. However, when he did, Abu Lahab was one of those who rejected the message of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and persecuted   him. He ordered his sons to divorce their wives or he would boycott them. Both daughters later remarried Muslims.

Almighty Allah had given one boon or Supplication or dua to all his prophets in their time and tested them in one way or other way, so all prophets except Prophet Muhammad [Pbuh] had used their supplication either to save their loved ones or to save their nation on earth. But Muhammad kept his dua or supplication intact in order to save his sinful nation [Umma] on the day of judgement. Once Apostle of Allaha Prophet Mohammed was weeping while holding his grandson in his arms, then his daughter Fatima came and asked the reason, then prophet told her that Angel Gabriel just brought message from almighty god, that one of grandson will be killed giving poison and another will killed by people of  his own community , then his daughter cried and request prophet to use supplication or dua which almighty Allah had given to him, then he refused to do and in reply he told I have that supplication or dua intact in order to save my sinful Nation or Umma on day of judgement. So Almighty Allah declared both grandsons of prophet as martyrs.

Abu Hamza was only his uncles who embrace & fought for Islam, who was brutally killed in battles field, but mercy of Apostle of God  that he had forgive the person who killed his uncle and later that person also embrace Islam.

Brother and sisters please think, Just going weekly or monthly once or twice to either church or temple is sufficient enough to worship the creator who has created us, provided food, shelter and also protecting us throughout our life, where as in comparison we spend 8 hours daily to work or to study in school, 3 to 4 hours watching T.V, playing, chatting friends etc. whereas this life is just a temporary resting place and hereafter is permanent either inform of eternal Paradise or eternal hell. Our lords command us just to pray 5 times per day for a maximum of one hour in 24 hours of a day So that we will be successful both in this world and Hereafter. , Please understand one important fact, we can only do action, reaction or result of our action is their in the hands of our creator, just submit your will to one true god and pray 5 times per day, and then your life will changed once forever and most important you will able overcome desire of life which is essence of all Evil, Both your Soul and Body will be in Peace.

Brother and Sister just think if human incarnate again after death and same life continue again and again, rich people will enjoy where as poor and middleclass people who are more than 80% of the society suffer again and again. Then what is really meaning of existence of life.

God will forgive everything except Kuffur or making partner with god in worship, such as worshiping the creation of god, like stone idols, trees, sun, moon, stars, humans and animals, so those disbelievers will go to hell forever. Suppose if you employ a person with good salary, food, shelter and car etc then if your employer yields fruits of his work for someone else, then what you do with such a dishonest person, you will severely punish and kick him from job. Similarly your creator has provided everything But Instead of worshiping him, if you are worship his creation such as stone idols, trees, sun, moon, stars, humans and animals. Justify yourself where you are going to belong whether heaven or hell.

On the day of Judgement, Almighty god will ask us, why did I have sent you to earth and what you have brought???

Almighty God has given us a superior Brain compare to all his creation, so please we have to use our intellect to best of our ability to find the truth. This is just a temporary or resting place, but hereafter is permanent.

The true message of All Prophets of god from Prophet Adam Pbuh to Prophet Muhammad Pbuh is

Bless are those who were Poor, Pacemaker, Caretaker of Orphans, preacher and one who spread of true message of Almighty God who is true Creator and sustainer of heaven and earth, Owner of day of Judgment.

If we will develop Patience towards others, Almighty Allah Makes others to show Patience towards us, Because Almighty Allah [God] controls the hearts of all his creation such humans, animals, birds, etc.

Prophet Muhammad told I am one among you, Slave or Servant of god and his messenger to whom the last and complete revelation in the form of Quran was revealed. He had not told I am god, my mother and wives are goddess. Before gaining of Prophet Hood he is one of the wealthiest merchant of Arabia, but later he had given everything in charity to poor and needy. His life itself is a best example how one should leave his life in order to achieve success both in this world and Hereafter

INTELLIGENT DESIGN—IN OTHER WORDS, CREATION

In Order to Create, God Has No Need to Plan

It’s important to properly understand the word “design.” If God has created a flawless design that does not mean that He first conceived a plan and then followed it. Allah, the Lord of the Earth and the heavens, needs no “designs” in order to bring anything into existence. God is exalted above all such deficiencies. Both His planning and His creation take place at the same instant.

Whenever God wills a thing to come about, it is enough for Him just to say, “Be!”  As we are told in the verses of the Qur’an:

His command when He desires a thing is just to say to it, “Be!” and it is. (In Holy Quran Surah Ya Sin: Verses 82)

[God is] the Originator of the heavens and Earth. When He decides on something, He just says to it, “Be!” and it is. (In Holy Quran, Surat Al-Baqara: Verses 117 )
