Ganpati Bappa Morya! . .. ... .. . Our Favourite festival is here. Did you know these interesting lesser-known tales of Lord Ganesha: 1. The Story Of Lord Ganesha And Tulsi. Brahmavavart Puran says, Tulsi Devi was amazed by the charm of Lord Ganesha when she was crossing through the banks of river Ganga where Lord Ganesha was meditating. Tulsi Devi went ahead to ask Ganesha to marry her but Ganesha replied that He will never get married in His life. This angered Tulsi and she cursed Ganesha that He will be married soon and Ganesha cursed Tulsi her to be a plant forever. 2. When Lord Ganesha Got Angry. Most of us not believe that Lord Ganesha can actually get angry but once the moon laughed at Ganesha’s fat belly. As a result, Ganesha cursed the moon and said that on Vinayagar Chaturthi, whoever will look at the moon, he would be falsely blamed. That’s why people believe in not looking at the moon on Ganesh Chaturthi. 3. The Tale Of Banana-Bride. This tale is believed in West Bengal. Once Goddess Durga was devouring food. Ganesha asked his mother about this plight. To this, Goddess Durga replied; “What if your wife does not give enough food to eat after you get married?”. Then, Ganesha went to cut a Banana tree and gave it to his mother saying; “This is your daughter-in-law”. So, even today during Durga puja, Banana tree wrapped in a saree and adorned with vermilion is placed on the right side of Lord Ganesha as his wife.
