The Significance of Anant Chaturdashi- our spiritual transformation can now begin…

The tenth day of Ganesh Chaturthi (Ganesh Utsav) festival is called as the Anant Chaturdashi. It is celebrated with great joy and reverence. It is believed that Lord Ganesh, who was residing amongst us during these past nine days has heard all our pleas and prayers. He has patiently heard all our tales of suffering and now as his sculpted clay form is being dissolved in the waters, he is also removing all the causes of our suffering and blessing us with immense gifts and happiness.

As per the mythology- Lord Ganesh is supposed to be going back to the higher dimensions to meet his father, Lord Shiva. Lord Ganesh rules the first chakra, Muladhara. This chakra is concerned with survival and our daily existence. Lord Shiva rules the higher chakras and particularly the seventh chakra (Sahasra) which signifies a completely awakened Kundalini (Shakti energy). The clay form of Lord Ganesh when he is visiting the earth (Karmic plane) indicates the mortal nature of man, which needs to be dissolved for spiritual transformation.

The day of Anant Chaturdashi signifies this awakening of our Kundalini energy. If we have been in-tune with the natural energies and Lord Ganesh; praying to him with true earnestness, then he will take us to our highest awakened self (an opened seventh chakra) and this transformation is the awakening and rising of the Kundalini energy.
​
It is interesting to note that the next fifteen days of the dark fortnight are called as the Pitru Paksha, where we are expected to pay off our ancestral karmic debt; our pitru-roon. 
These fifteen days of pitru paksha are then followed by Navratri, which is the nine-day celebration of mother Shakti energy- culminating into the festival of Vijaya Dashami, which literally means the tenth day of victory.

​So our soul journey which started with paying obeisance and truthfully praying to Lord Ganesh now experiences transformation, which in turn awakens our Kundalini energy.

​We then need to truly work with those Shakti energies (during Navratri), to victoriously transform ourselves!
​
Hopefully on this day of Anant Chaturdashi, Lord Ganesh will bless all of us with true understanding of our own real nature, our conscious self, so we can start the process of our transformation.

    Vedic Culture, which   is the culture of the original Himalayan Masters,    is one of the most advanced ancient civilizations.  It is a tradition which has given mankind several treasures such Yoga, Meditation, Conscious-Living and Vedic Sciences such as Ayurveda, Vedic Physics & Vedic Mathematics.

    It was always a scientific culture that understood the very mechanics and workings of this Universe. Their deities, their gods and goddesses were all a way of expressing and explaining these energies and their inter-working. Modern Quantum Mechanics is just starting to understand string theory, dark matter etc. which have all been fundamental to the Vedic understanding. Because of this, they developed ways and methods which allowed one to best tap into life-energy itself.

    Vedic Culture, as it was practiced by the Himalayan Masters, was always a "way of life" and not a religion.

    Their basic view was that, there is only ONE Supreme God-head (God as our creator) and each one of us can find our path to it- experience union with that divinity (Yoga) in their own way.

    Because of this, anyone with any religious affiliations and beliefs can still benefit from their knowledgeable ways of Vedic Wisdom.

    Our attempt here is to present this ancient wisdom in a modern light, so our readers can interpret the true, essential meaning more easily and then extrapolate it to their own specific scenarios and enhance the quality of their life and being-ness.
