Inner Significance of Ganesha's Form and Festival | Sathya Sai Baba Divine Discourse
https://youtu.be/CKALc6TEJ34
The Elephant form of Lord Ganesha is replete with meaning and significance. During the Ganesha Chaturthi discourse on August 25, 1998, Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba explains this in detail and also narrated an engaging story on why Lord Ganesha is always the first to be worshipped. Listen to our dear Sai Shiva speaking about His dear 'son'!

Justice AP Misra recounts a story about Dr. Sahaniâs cancer patientâŚ
By the time this patient came for consultancy, her cancer was in an advanced stage. Dr. Sahani performed a biopsy and informed her that there was only a bleak chance for recovery. The lady responded, âI want to take Vibhuti, Swami will save me.â Seeing not many options, Dr. Sahani said, âGo ahead, nothing wrong with that.â Thus, she started taking Vibhuti. After about two to three months, she reported feeling very well, almost normal. Dr. Sahani did a biopsy and found no signs of cancer! The doctor had a second biopsy performed after 2-3 days, which reconfirmed that her cancer was gone! The first thing that came to my rational mind after hearing this story was that it is not humanly possible! However, Swami says, âDo not believe blindly. You must see and then believe. Believing blindly sometimes leads you down the wrong path.â

Dr. Valluvan Jeevanandam writes,
During the early days at SSSIHMS, the infrastructure and surgical expertise was still being developed so that we would come together as a team and perform surgeries. I was very competitive and was fixated on treating as many patients as possible.
One day, the nurse informed me that all cases were to be stopped at 2 PM so that the staff could attend Swamiâs discourse. Despite pleas from the staff, I told them to let my assistant and I show them how to do a procedure so fast that we could maintain our quota, and yet go to see Swami. But that day, there was every possible delay during the surgery, although the patient did come out fine. The team was deprived of the opportunity to listen to the discourse and have darshan of Swami. When Swami came near me, He asked me about the patient. He looked at me mischievously and probed âWhat happened?â and continued âNot the expected half the time but the procedure took twice as long.â
My ego had gotten in the way of common sense and patient safety, and I had denied the team the opportunity to meet with Swami. That lesson has stuck with me to this day.

The Lingam through which Swami Entered Hong Kong
One devotee, Madhu Hardasani, yearned for a photograph of Swami for her home. This was 1976 and photos of Bhagawan were not easily available. It was the monsoon time and the tropical storm, Violet, struck Hong Kong violently. As everyone bolted their doors for safety, the typhoon winds deposited a blessing on the bamboo rack of the yearning devoteeâs home - a photo of her Swami which seemed to say, âWhy fear when I am here?â The devoteeâs joy knew no bounds. Inspired, she began Bal Vikas classes in her home.
There is no need to fear or worry about storms in life because our Swami comes to us through them as well!

SWAMI HAD CALLED ALL OF US STUDENTS TO HIS RESIDENCE TRAYEE at Brindavan, Whitefield, Bangalore. We sat around the ornate swing where He was seated. The most coveted Trayee Session was about to begin. Swami began the session with a profound question, âWho is Swami?â
Many answers came tumbling out.
âYou are our divine mother and fatherâŚ.â
âYou are the Sadguru!â
âSwami is the Supreme Brahman.â
âYou are the one who has the love of a million mothers.â
Sitting a few rows from His lotus feet, something stirred within me. Raising my hand and my voice, I blurted out, âSwami, You are the conscience, the indweller.â
Swamiâs eyes immediately lit up, and He nodded in agreement. He praised me, saying, âLook, this little boy has got the right answer. Swami is your indweller, your conscience.â
I felt a surge of indescribable joy and pride within. I had just joined the 11th grade in Swamiâs school at Puttaparthi. Most importantly, I got the answer right when nobody else did, and I also won accolades from Swami Himself!
Swami continued His discourse and, now and then, referred to the concept of conscience, prefacing it with, âAs this little boy saidâŚ.â I continued to be on cloud nine, elated with joy and pride. After about half an hour, He turned to me and asked, âIf you truly believe Swami to be your conscience, will you do the things that you are doing?â
From being on cloud nine, I came crashing down to earth!

In 2014, when everything was going smoothly along professional and personal fronts, Swami came into my dream and told me to return to Sri Lanka! This was a bolt out of the blue. I shared the dream with my wife and other members of my family. Everyone told me to stay put in Australia and not be foolish in pursuing a âdreamâ that could end up a ânightmare.â I kept thinking about what to do until I suffered âanalysis paralysisâ and continued the status quo.
Then, in March 2017, Swami appeared in my dream again. This time, He seemed very upset and had a stern look. âCome back right now to Sri Lanka,â He said sternly. This time, I didnât ask anyone. I told Vasuki we would be moving back to Sri Lanka at any cost. Since Swami is her priority too, she readily agreed. We packed up everything, abandoning our plans to purchase a home in Australia, and moved back to Sri Lanka within two months!
We were both jobless, and our two sons needed to attend school. Everyone in the family was convinced that I had gone mad. I was accused of being extremely selfish, for I had just thrown away a good life to fulfill a âcrazy dream!â We had to start from ground zero now. We rented a house and found an affordable school for the children. But for nine months, every effort to find a job turned hopeless for me. I was heartbroken, frustrated, and angry.
Holding Swamiâs picture, I lamented, âSwami, I have done as You told me. Why are You troubling us like this now? Where have I failed You that You are failing me?â
