 Lord Ganesha or Vigneshwara is the first and primary God of the Hindus. Before starting any venture, it is imperative that we offer prayers and pooja to Lord Ganesh so that there are no obstacles in our path. That is why, before posting any message in my newly started Blogger,  I have considered it mandatory to post a message on Lord Vigneshwara. I pray Lord Ganesh to bestow good health and happiness to you all.  "Tat purushaya vidmahe vakra thundaya deemahi Thanno dandi prachodayaat"
