Om Shakti Ganesha on Hosur Road
There's this amazing Ganesha on Hosur Road, right near the turn-off at Naganathapura.
In 2002, while starting from home, the gear shift of my Santro car developed a heavy jiggling movement. It would engage properly but the gear shift lever would keep on vibrating severely. However, I kept driving towards the office. On the Outer Ring Road, I called up Hyundai Service on the mobile, but they couldn't guess the reason for the jiggling. Anyway, I kept driving.
After some time, I came to this Ganesha Temple (the idol used to look West over Hosur Road, though it now looks east). As I drove past the temple, I muttered Jai Ganesh and the jiggling of the gear lever just stopped! The car behaved totally normal after that.
On another occasion, I was driving back home with the skies really spoiling to rain. As I went past the temple, I was recollecting the earlier incident, when the biggest bolt of lightning I have ever seen cut across the sky. Since one is at an elevation at that point, I could see the lightning cleave the sky in half and BOOM it went!
The above photo was taken while traveling to Tiruvannamalai with HPR on 14.JUN.2003.
Btw, it's the Fat Man's b'day today.
