Pancha Ganapati Day 3

We continue with our five-day celebration of Pancha Ganapati. Today, day 3 of the celebration, Gurudeva shares from his book "Loving Ganesha"

DECEMBER 23, RED
The family sadhana for the third day is to create a vibration of love and harmony among business associates, the casual merchant and the public at large. This is the day for presenting gifts to merchants and customers and to honor employers and employees with gifts and appreciation. The sadhana today is the settling of all debts and disputes. Gifts received are placed unopened before the Deity.
