వాడుకరి:DollyRaju/Thirty-two forms of Ganesha

వికీపీడియా నుండి

హిందూ మతం గణేశ (గణపతి) కు చెందిన భక్తి సాహిత్యంలో గణేష ముప్పై రెండు రూపాలు తరచుగా పేర్కొనబడ్డాయి. [1] [2] [3] గణేష-సెంట్రిక్ గ్రంథములలొ ముద్గలపురాణము మొదటిది. [4]

19 వ శతాబ్దపు కన్నడ శ్రీ తత్త్వనిధిలో  శివనిధి భాగంలో వివరణాత్మక వర్ణనలు చేర్చబడ్డాయి . నంజంగుడ్  మరియు చామరాజనగర్  (కర్ణాటకలోని మైసూర్ జిల్లాలో) లోని దేవాలయాలలో అక్కడి చక్రవర్తి  ఆదేశాలతో ఈ ముప్పై రెండు రూపాల శిల్పాలు అదే సమయంలో చిత్రలేఖనం చేయబడినాయి. ముప్పై రెండు దృష్టాంతాలు కన్నడ లిపిలో రాసిన చిన్న సంస్కృత ధ్యాన పదము ( dhyānaśloka ) తో కలిసి ఉంటాయి. ధ్యానం శ్లోకాలు ప్రతి రూపం యొక్క లక్షణాల జాబితా. ఈ ధ్యాన రూపాలు ముద్గాల పురాణానికి చెందినవని వచనం చెబుతోంది.

మార్టిన్ డ్యూబౌస్ట్ రాసిన పత్రాల ప్రకారం,  శ్రీతత్వనిధి దక్షిణ భారతంలో ఇటీవలికాలంలో ప్రచురితమైనట్లు, ఈ పత్రాల్లో  ఆ కాలంలో ఆయాప్రాంతాల్లో విరివిగా ఉన్న గణేశ రూపాలని పొందుపరిచినప్పటికీ, 4 వ శతాబ్దం నుండి ఉనికిలో ఉన్న రెండు చేతుల, 9 వ మరియు 10 వ శతాబ్దాలలో మధ్య భారతదేశంలో కనిపించిన పద్నాలుగు మరియు ఇరవై చేతుల వినాయకుడిని  వర్ణించలేదు. [5]

రామచంద్రరావు రచనలలొ :


గణపతి ఆరాధనలో  శ్రీతత్వనిధి లోని మొదటి పదహారు రూపాలు (షోడశ గణపతి) చాలా ప్రాముఖ్యం చెందినవి. వాటిలో, పదమూడవ, అంటే మహాగణపతి రూపాన్ని ఎక్కువగా  పూజిస్తారు. ఈ రూపాన్నీ తాంత్రికంగా కూడా పూజించే వారున్నారు.శక్తి-గణపతి, ఉచ్చిష్ట- గణపతి  మరియు లక్ష్మీ-గణపతి రూపాలు కూడా తాంత్రిక రహస్య ఆరాధనా రూపాలుగా పూజలు అందుకొంటున్నాయి. హేరంబ-గణపతి రూపం నేపాల్ లో ప్రసిద్ది చెందింది
