Chinmayananda, who is virtually a saint in India, has composed a delightful collection of imformation on the Divine Delicious One. He speaks from the perspective of an Indian guru with a twist of psychologist, mixing the tales of Ganesha with meaningful insights into the archetypal backbone of the Ganesh mythology. I love everything about Ganesh, and this collections of information broken in chapters on symbolism, manifestations, contemplations, worship and Upsana feeds my fervor. What is lost in the Sanskrit bits and pieces that I cannot understand, is made up in it's Indian authenticity. If you love the image of the Remover of Obstacles then this is worth the meager price. May the light of Ganesh bake your cookies. Om Shri Ganesha.
