Mylapore (Chennai) is very famous for the 'mukku pillayar koil" (corner ganesha temple). Every street corner, you can see lord ganesha, sitting patiently amidst the people going about their daily chores. Mamas and mamis, school children, rikshawalla and every passer will wish him, though hurriedly. I've got so used to these mukku pillayars that, when I step out of my house and say bye to people at home, my head will turn towards the beloved ganesha sitting in the corner temple. A simple nod and sometimes a smile or wish and many times a heated glance, I go past. But here in Silliguri I do not find my friend, I really miss him. So I decided to bring him in my balcony corner. Sitting amidst green pots, there he is. always with me...

welcome to my ganesha corner :)
