🌻. Overcoming Obstacles 🌻

The wisdom teachings explain that the obstacles in our life are in us and not outside. Inner distortions are seen as outer obstacles. 

The outer obstacles are self-made. They arise because something is disarranged in our thought patterns. 

The problems we encounter today evolved from false ideas or earlier carelessness and neglect. If we forget details while executing a plan, they develop into future impediments; later it will be expensive or difficult to make changes. 

Right thoughts which come at the wrong time or right thoughts which come at the right time but are either not executed or not correctly executed might also obstruct us. 

If we have the right thought at the right moment, it flows unhindered like a stream.

Some people have ideas which work out by themselves. They get the right ideas at the right moment and execute them in the right way. 

In astrological terms, Jupiter is well aspected in their chart. Jupiter is the planet presiding over order in creation. We can recognise people with a confused mind, who create complications for themselves and for others, from the position of Jupiter in their chart indicating that something in their inner is confused. 

Their thought patters have to be restructured so that the obstacles can be overcome. The key to this is held by Jupiter.

The presiding deity of Jupiter on all planes, namely the planetary, solar and cosmic planes, is called Ganesha or Ganapati in Eastern wisdom. 

This means Lord of groupings, of systematic arrangement. He orders the sounds and utters them to shape creation.

The wisdom teaches us that if we worship Ganesha we won’t encounter obstacles and impediments in our life. 

If Jupiter or also other planets are seriously afflicted either in the birth chart or progressive chart or by transits, these negative effects can be neutralised when we regularly contemplate on the elephant-headed deity Ganesha.
