Ganesha Chaturthi Wallpapers

 

September 17, 2012

On the auspicious occasion of Sri Ganesha Chaturthi falling on the 19th September 2012, below are desktop wallpapers of Sri Ratnagarbha Ganapati to decorate your desktops.

The ancient murti of Sri Ratnagarbha Ganapati was handed down by Sri Adi Shankaracharya to Sureshwaracharya, and propitiated since then by the Jagadgurus  who have adorned the throne of transcendental wisdom at Sringeri.

A Note on Screen Propotions

Instead of providing wallpapers for various screensizes, two sets of wallpapers have been provided; one for normal computer monitors viz. 4:3 propotion, and the other for wide-screen monitors viz. 16:9. No matter what the resolution, the wallpapers for their respective frame ratios will snugly fit inside the desktop area without much hassle. Illustrations of the two types of monitors are provided below for convenience of devotees.

  • Weapons do not cut This (Atma); nor does fire does burn It. Water does not wet (nor drown) nor does wind dry It. This (Atma) cannot be slain, nor burnt, nor wetted, nor dried up. It is changeless, all-pervading, stable, immovable and eternal. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
  • Do not be proud of wealth, people (relations and friends), and youth. All these are snatched by Time in the blink of an eye. Giving up this illusory world, know and attain the Supreme. Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Mohamudgara
  • Today God is altogether ignored and this is the cause of all our suffering and misery. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • By God’s grace, we have obtained a human birth, the power of discrimination and someone to teach us about the ultimate, truth. If we still remain lazy, we will be wasting a marvelous opportunity. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • No man is omniscient. Hence man should not have the ego that he knows all. It is ego that leads man astray and drives him to commit sins. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
