When I was about 1 and half year old my doddamma took me to her house to Udyavar. She is my mother's sister who had no children of her own. It is not that she did not get her pregnancy. When she was in her early pregnancy her mother in law made her to work very hard and because of that she lost her pregnancy. It happened twice and then she could not concive she used to say. So sad to hear that. I have seen her mother in law who was very rude and she made my doodamma to suffer so much. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">In those days all these nuts were used by rich people and not many could buy as they think.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">But my doddamma used to give me some raisins every day, hiding raisins in her sari edge. She used to take me behind the cow shed and feed me those raisins. Raisins are very good for health and good for good blood as every one knows. Her mother in law will shout out if she sees that. She took care of me like her own baby until she died. Even our wedding beegara authana held in Udyavara Mane. Even now I am attached to that house. My younger sister lives there and we visit whenever we visit our home town. Its like my mother's home for me</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Lets come back to Our healthy Laddu preparation.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">This Laddu is good for all age group.

Pooja is done with Naivedyam and then some do this ritual for three days and some people do Visarjan of Ganesh on the same day in water. Visarjan is done in ponds, rivers, sea or even in well. This shows the human is born, spent his life time and at the end is death.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">ಗಣೇಶ ಬಂದ </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">ಹೊಟ್ಟೆ ಮೇಲೆ ಗಂಧ </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">ಕಾಯಿ ಕಡುಬು ತಿಂದ</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">ಚಿಕ್ಕ ಕೆರೇಲಿ ಎದ್ದ</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">ದೊಡ್ಡ ಕೆರೇಲಿ ಬಿದ್ದ.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"> The meaning of the above words are </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Ganesha has come, </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">He ate Kayi Kadubu. ( Sweet delicacy made of rice, coconut and jaggery)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">He was prepared by smalll pond soil</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">and he was taken and dipped in the big water way. (May be the river, sea etc).</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Lord Ganesh is prayed first in the beginning of any of the pooja. Prathamam Ganesha.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">There is a story that on Ganesh Chathurthi we should not see Moon. (Chaturthi moon).</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">You avoid seeing Moon on this day evening. or might get a bad label as thief even though that you have not done that theft.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">There is a story for this. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">On this Ganesha festival day, Ganesha had eaten lots of eatables like Laddu, Unde, Pancha kajjaya, Kayi kadubu et. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">He was travelling back on his vehicle Mooshika that is Rat. When they were passing the field, the rat saw a snake and pushed Ganesha on the earth and ran away and hid in a bush.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Becarus of the fall Ganesha;s stomack broke and all the edibles came out. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Ganesha got angry and pulled that snake and turned around his stomach. Seeing Ganesha falling Moon laughed. Ganesha got angry and gave him a Curse. that he will turn as a thief.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Moon pleaded him to take away the curse. So Lord Ganapa said who ever sees the moon will have to face the theft crime, even though they do not do it. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">And by listening to Shamanthaka Mani Story, the curse does not harm much .</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Shamantaka Mani is one of the precious stone given to King Sathrajit and his brother Prasenajith wore that and went for hunting to forest. In the forest a lion killed the Prasenjit and took it. A bear Jambuvantha fought with lion and he took that Shamanthaka Mani and gave it to his daughter. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Shree Krisha had seen the Moon on Ganesha Chuthurthi and the theft lebal was put on him.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Though he did not take that Shamantaka Mani, he was labeled as thief. So Shree Krishna went in search of Shamantaka Mani to a forest and found it on Jambavathi, Jambavanta's daugher. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">He fought with Jambavantha, Jambavantha did not realize that is Shree Rama who has taken a birth as Shree Krishna. When he realized he was surrendered and gave the Mani to Shree Krishna. Shree Krishna brought the Shamantaka Mani and gave it to the king Satrajit.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">So who ever hear this story of this Shamantaka Mani , will escape from that curse. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Om Shree Krishnaya Namah.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></p>Nalini Somayajihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08953204128197544334noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4073100807625959332.post-48937312640431891652023-04-22T00:07:00.014+05:302023-04-22T00:14:55.012+05:30Ragi & Dry Fruits Laddu.<p> <span style="font-size: medium;">Ragi is finger millet and one of the millet family grain.
