I am a follower of Ganesh, myself, however I have not yet read the Bhagavad Gita. I am looking forward to reading it though. As for your altar, of course I am going to say I love it simply because you have Ganesh sitting upon it. :P John, have you looked at the other thread regarding deities yet?

Then one day I will walk by and say...Oh my Goddess...literally...you poor thing...you are smothering amongst the treasures I have brought you! And then I do a huge cleaning and re-arranging! I have 3 Altars that I keep up all year. One is by my bedside...dream crystals, guardians, and gentle herbs help protect me through the night. I have my meditation Altar. This Altar seems to stay very clean and organized. Buddah, candles, Generator crystals and healing stones occupy this space. This is where I do my Chakra cleansings, Reiki, Meditations, Yoga, Tai Chi...you can relax here! And then there is my Goddess Altar. Drapped with the leaves, stones and other treasures I have found. It is here that I do my "work". It is here that I worship and praise! And then...there are my Sabbat Altars! These get put up about a week or two before the Sabbat and are dressed with whatever I feel they are meant to have! This cute little picture i'm sharing is of my "Halloween Display" on my dining room table...and tonite there are 2 Altars set up..my Goddess Altar and the Ancestor Altar, for tonite the Harvest is complete and the New Year begins! Blessed Samhain everyone!!! (P.S. who knows...maybe I'll share some pictures of tonite's festivities later???) <a target="_self" href="http://api.ning.com:80/files/SNZw9U7m39d5ECerckYmlj9oJdPIp2OERJ8vp3l4VW1emmH3QUJ4-Osa8q5mckEOO26akBFG93AfgH3S2KKJ74vK8djFjYTa/CIMG2136.JPG"><img width="480" src="http://api.ning.com:80/files/SNZw9U7m39d5ECerckYmlj9oJdPIp2OERJ8vp3l4VW1emmH3QUJ4-Osa8q5mckEOO26akBFG93AfgH3S2KKJ74vK8djFjYTa/CIMG2136.JPG" class="align-full"/></a></p> Nah, we didn't get much snow… tag:realpagan.net,2011-10-30:6330711:Comment:148707 2011-10-30T18:24:20.481Z Leisha http://realpagan.net/profile/Leisha Nah, we didn't get much snow here, and nothing stuck.
