                                       Ganesha-5

 

Why do we hold ear lobes and squat down to the ground before Ganesha?

     

 It is a common simple ritual to hold left ear lobe with right hand hand and right earlobe with left hand's pointer finger and thumb and slowly squatting down to the ground before Ganesha. Lord Ganesha is also prayed for awakening our awareness which is needed to do any task to fulfillment.

 When we did mischiefs , especially at school, the Indian teachers gave a small punishment. This is in Tamil is called "Thoppu Karanam". Now Brain studies shows this punishing act infact improves brain function for both young and adults. 
 See this video demonstration of how the EEG patterns change when some one does this Ganesha Ritual.
