One day, Lord Ganesha’s vehicle, a mouse called Mushaka, was complaining to Lord Ganesha about the burden of carrying him everywhere. The mouse said that he was too small to carry Lord Ganesha’s weight and was tired of being treated as inferior. Lord Ganesha understood the mouse’s concerns and decided to teach him a lesson.
Lord Ganesha took on the form of the mouse and started carrying the mouse. As they walked, they came across a group of rats who started chasing them. The mouse, in the form of Lord Ganesha, got scared and asked the real mouse to help him. The real mouse, realizing that he was in danger, ran away, leaving the mouse in the form of Lord Ganesha to fend for himself.
As the rats approached, the mouse in the form of Lord Ganesha started growing bigger and bigger until he became a huge elephant. The rats were frightened and ran away. Lord Ganesha then explained to the mouse that his size was not a limitation and that he had the potential to do great things. He also forgave the mouse for his earlier complaints and restored him to his former shape.
This story teaches us the importance of looking beyond our limitations and realizing our true potential. It also shows us the value of humility and forgiveness.
