Near Miss Musings, Or High Time For An Anthro Elephant On This Site!

In 2015, Halloween night, an asteroid come within 300,000 miles of Earth.  This near miss was bad enough, but it photographed from some angles as a human skull.  In a movie this would have been considered tremendously overdone, even as Peter Cushing arrogantly dismisses the danger.  Of course I had to get my bunny in on the action.

 "Either slain thou shalt go to heaven; or victorious thou shalt enjoy the Earth".

Quotes from the Bhagavad Gita.


Enjoy your earth.


Lord Ganesha.  He took down the  Mahabharata as it was dictated by the sage Vyasa.  The Bhagavad Gita is the sixth of the 18 books that make up that longest of all poems, consisting of over 100,000 couplets, 10 times longer than the Iliad and the Odyssey combined.  The Gita is a conversation between Arjuna and his charioteer, Lord Krishna, who after all of this tells Arjuna that it is his job to go to war, and to shut up about it.  Lord Ganesha ruined his pen while writing all this down so he broke off a tusk and continued writing with that.
Ganesha got the elephant head after Lord Shiva removed his human one in a fit of pique, and then repented and ordered his henchmen to bring him the head of the first living creature they found.  Said creature turned out to be an old elephant happily walking about without a care in the world.  Shiva was trying to get it on with the 'mother' of Ganesh, Parvati.  She was taking a bath and created Ganesh to keep Shiva out, which he tried to do and got his head cut off by Shiva for his temerity.  Why Shiva did not just put the boy's head back on I cannot say, it is a mystery.  If this strains credulity then I refer you to the revelations of John of Patmos, the last book of the New Testament.
Ganesha took 3 years to write this down.  Vyasa means 'compiler' in Hindi, and he has the same historical authenticity as Homer.  You might have noticed the mouse under Ganesha's feet.  This is a celestial music god who was cursed to assume the form of a mouse, and he ended up annoying Ganesh.  Ganesh made him his mount, but the mouse could not bear the weight of the god and begged him to become light of weight that he might better support him.  Now you know.
