My family and I will be spending the night at the Mandir with the other members who we...

How hard is it to simply Be. To awaken everyday calmly, acknowledging that we Are and allowing ourselves to purposefully Be. To find purpose in our words, actions and thoughts and not just carrying out our lives as an endless battle to gain. Gain what? Many of us hardly know.

Om Gam Ganapataye Namah
I find myself facing obstacles again Baba, not so much physically but mentally and spiritually as well. I know however that You will never abandon me and so I place not only my troubles, but myself at Your Lotus Feet and allow my faith and trust in You to help me overcome.
Om Gam Ganapataye Namah Om Gam Ganapataye Namah Om Gam Ganapataye Namah Jai Sri Ganesh.

He said “When you don’t have anything to eat, take it as an opportunity to fast and when you do, thank God that you have.” Instead of just seeing the negative, think again, look again...
