Significance for Stock Market Traders & Lessons we can learn from Lord Ganesha
Lord Ganesha is also known as the Lord of Prosperity. On the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi, let us look at the lessons we can draw in building our wealth from the great lord himself.
You just need to start!
Ever wondered why Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated at the beginning of the 10-day long festivities? It is to remind us that the most important part of any journey is to begin, which is the crux of financial planning as well. It serves us nothing to only talk about financial planning. We must begin now! The earlier you start, the better it is, given that time works on your money and compounds it.
Look for “value for money”
If you look closely at the persona of Lord Ganesha, there is no sign of pretentiousness in the humble God's personality or clothing. For his travels, he uses the humble mouse, which invokes the value of frugality. Why is frugality so important in the case of financial planning? Most of us tend to look at our savings as a residual amount that is left after we spend on our requirements. However, ideally, we need to squeeze every rupee in savings and investments out of our income and then spend the remainder.
Focus on the long term
Have you wondered what the small eyes of Lord Ganesha depict? It is all about focus. When you need to focus on a small object, you narrow your eyes and that helps you to clearly focus on your goals. This is exactly what you need to do when you plan your finances. Your sole objective should be to achieve your long-term financial goals. Everything else revolves around that.
Think big, act small
The persona of Lord Ganesha combines a large head and large ears, but a small mouth and small eyes. It depicts a mind that is intellectually sophisticated to see the big picture, ears that can learn and grasp all the while, a mouth that is used sparingly, and eyes that are narrowed and focused on the details. When it comes to financial planning, while the big picture is essential to remind us of our goals, we also need to develop the attention to detail and make small but regular investments.
This too shall pass
Lord Ganesha reminds us that each year, the celebrations will come, but they will also end. However, the memories and hopes of good times linger on. This is a great lesson from a financial planning perspective. We have to make the best of our good times, while reconciling with the fact that when it comes to financial planning, there will be good times and challenging times too. Our entire assumption of financial planning should be that tough times will last much longer than the good times. Hence, it is best to be prepared for the worst and investing in the best!
Historical Perspective: Independence Struggle
The well-known freedom fighter and statesman, Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak, was the man behind Ganesh festival a way of uniting people in a common cause and in this manner a possible means of bringing about political consciousness under the guise of a religious celebration during British rule, Lokmanya Tilak also started celebrating Ganesutsav as a public festival by establishing a Sarvajanik Ganpati at Vinchurkarwada in 1894 and today it is the most popular event in the State. It was a unique move by this freedom fighter, which he achieved with the Ganpati Visarjana or immersion procession which is taken out on the final day of the Ganesh festival.
According to Shiva Purna. The birth of Ganesha
One day Goddess Parvati was at home on Mt.Kailash preparing for a bath. As she didn't want to be disturbed, she told Nandi, her husband Shiva's Bull, to guard the door and let no one pass. Nandi faithfully took his post, intending to carry out Parvati's wishes. But, when Shiva came home and naturally wanted to come inside, Nandi had to let him pass, being loyal first to Shiva. Parvati was angry at this sight but even more than this, at the fact that she had no one as loyal to Herself as Nandi was to Shiva. So, taking the turmeric paste (for bathing) from her body and breathing life into it, she created Ganesha, declaring him to be her own loyal son.
The next time Parvati wished to bathe, she posted Ganesha on guard duty at the door. In due course, Shiva came home, only to find this strange boy telling him he couldn't enter his own house! Furious, Shiva ordered his army to destroy the boy, but they all failed! Such power did Ganesha possess, being the son of Devi Herself!
This surprised Shiva. Seeing that this was no ordinary boy, the usually peaceful Shiva decided he would have to fight him, and in his divine fury severed Ganesha's head, killing him instantly. When Parvati learned of this, she was so enraged and insulted that she decided to destroy the entire Creation! Lord Brahma, being the Creator, naturally had his issues with this, and pleaded that she reconsider her drastic plan. She said she would, but only if two conditions were met: one, that Ganesha be brought back to life, and two, that he be forever worshipped before all the other gods.
Shiva, having cooled down by this time, and realizing his mistake, agreed to Parvati's conditions. He sent Brahma out with orders to bring back the head of the first creature he crosses that is laying with its head facing North. Brahma soon returned with the head of a strong and powerful elephant, which Shiva placed onto Ganesha's body. Breathing new life into him, he declared Ganesha to be his own son as well and gave him the status of being foremost among the gods, and leader of all the ganas (classes of beings), Ganapati.
