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.

  • The Self (Atma) is never born nor does It ever die; neither does It cease to exist after having once existed nor does the Self come into existence, like the body, having not existed before. Unborn, eternal, It undergoes no change whatsoever and is primeval; It is not destroyed when the body is destroyed. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
  • A person who hears about the condemnation of another incurs sin. What need be said about the sin incurred by a man who actually engages in nit picking? Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Prabodha Sudhakara
  • If you pray with faith and devotion, the Lord will certainly listen to your earnest prayers. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • Our nation and its culture have a hoary past and we should all be proud of it. Mere aping of the West is not beneficial for us. For example, care of aged parents is something that has come down to us traditionally and we must never neglect this duty by imbibing concepts of some free societies, wherein concern for one’s own parents is at low ebb. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • It is a great blunder not to make proper use of the body and mind that has been given to us by God. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
