kunjamma, if you use the advanced search option in the upper right-hand corner of all pages, you can figure out if something you want has been discussed already...in this case, a search on gaNesha pancharatnam or mudakara would have brought up a couple of threads...here is one that should give you what you are looking for: http://www.rasikas.org/forums/viewtopic. ... t=mudakara
