Ganesh Wanted to EAT… the God of Wealth?
Ganesh Wanted to EAT… the God of Wealth?
Mahadev, please protect me. Alkapuri is coming to an end. My reserves are exhausted. My treasury is exhausted. My palace is finished. And now Lord Ganesha himself is going to eat me. Is there still something left Kuber ji? Because my hunger is not over yet. And if I don’t get food, maybe I will have to eat you. Kubera Ji Kubera is the richest god of the three worlds whose treasures cannot be estimated even by the gods themselves. After all, what happened that Vighnaharta Ganesh ji himself wanted to make the God of wealth his food? And why did Mahadev Shiva himself have to intervene? To understand this incident, we have to go back a little. At that time, one day Kubera was looking at his golden city Alakapuri. His ministers and servants were also present with him. Minister, is there any such splendor in the three worlds that can match that of Alkapuri? Maharaja Indra has wealth in his heaven, but his wealth is only in Alakapuri. Maharaj, wealth itself resides at your feet. If there is any king of wealth in the three worlds, it is you yourself. A smile of satisfaction appeared on Kuber’s face. He looked once again towards his golden city. But the very next moment his gaze fell on Mount Kailash standing on the distant horizon. Strange thing. I have achieved this glory by doing penance for years. And Mahadev has neither gold nor a palace nor a throne. Those who have ashes on their body. There is a snake instead of jewellery. And only one bull to ride. Still why do gods, demons and humans all call him Mahadev, the God of Gods? All three people bow their heads before Mahadev who has nothing to say of his own. So maybe it’s time for the three men to see what the real kingdom of money is like. And Mahadev himself should be a witness to this glory of mine. And at that very moment a plan started taking shape in Kuber’s mind. He decided to organize a grand feast in Alakapuri in which he wanted to display his wealth and splendor in front of all the gods. Especially in front of Mahadev Shiva himself. Hi guys, before moving ahead, if you get to know or learn something new from this video then please like the video.

To make his plan a reality, Kubera himself reached Kailash in his Pushpak plane. He bowed to Mahadev and Mother Parvati. Lord, on the auspicious occasion of the upcoming Akshaya Tritiya, a grand feast has been organised in Alkapuri. Gods, Gandharvas, Yakshas and Kinnars will all be present there. If you and Mother Parvati bless that event with your presence, I will consider myself blessed. Mahadev kept looking at Kubera for a few moments. Kuber: An important ritual is also to be performed in Kailash on the upcoming Akshaya Tritiya. Therefore, it will not be possible for me and Parvati to come to Alkapuri that day. But one of my representatives will definitely come. It will be my good fortune, Mahadev, that I have a son, Ganesh. But remember one thing Kuber. Never make the mistake of considering Ganesha’s hunger as ordinary. If you have doubts about your reserves, you can still withdraw your invitation. The stores of Mahadev Alkapuri never saw any shortage. Even if hunger itself comes to my door as a guest, it will return only after being satisfied. Then it is okay Kuber, Ganesh will definitely reach Alkapuri on the day of Akshaya Tritiya. Kubera bowed to Mahadev and took leave from Kailash. He thought that he was going to make Mahadev witness his glory. But he did not know that this grand feast was going to be a test not of his grandeur but of his ego. The auspicious day of Akshaya Tritiya has arrived. Gods, Gandharvas, Yakshas and Kinnars were all invited to that grand feast organised in Alkapuri. Kubera himself was busy welcoming his guests. Just then a soldier came and informed. Lord Ganesha has arrived from Maharaj Kailash. Kubera himself reached the palace gate to welcome him. Welcome to Alkapuri. Lord Ganesha. Today I have the privilege of welcoming you. Father has told you a lot about your prosperity. Now I want to see whether your generosity is as big as your treasure or as big as your fame, Ganesh ji, today this curiosity of yours will also end because there is no limit to my treasures. Then let’s get started. After a few moments Ganesha sat down for food. Kubera was fully confident that the splendor of Alkapuri was greater than the hunger of any guest. But what happened in the next moment was something that even Kubera himself had not imagined. The first plate placed in front of Ganesha became empty. Then the second, then the third. And in no time the entire royal feast was over. Ganesha smiled and looked at Kubera and there is food Ganesha ji this was just the beginning open another kitchen what is happening? After some time a servant came running, Maharaj, the second kitchen is also empty, so open the third one, Maharaj, open the third one too, for the first time Kuber’s smile faded a little, open the storehouse, today no guest of Alkapuri returned hungry, but Ganesh’s hunger was not going to stop. After some time, the voices of the ministers started echoing one after the other. Maharaj Uttar storehouse is empty. Maharaj, the southern reserves also got exhausted. All the food grains have been brought from the nearby towns and villages also. Was that all? Kuber ji? No Ganesh ji, there is no limit to the treasures of Alkapuri. Well, maybe now only this treasure can satisfy my hunger. Then Ganesh’s eyes fell on the huge treasury of the palace. The very next moment, boxes full of gold coins started filling his stomach. Within a few moments, the huge treasury of Alkapuri was emptied. Ganesh ji, this is not food. Kuber, the food has finished long ago. You wanted to show me the splendor of Alkapuri. I am just accepting it. But this is the treasury of Alkapuri. It is the property of the entire state. And you yourself had said Kuber that no guest from Alkapuri will return hungry. Kuber remained silent. Ganesha looked at the splendor scattered all around. Strange thing. The wealth which you considered limitless, could not last even for a moment in front of my hunger. But his hunger was still not satiated. Gradually their size started increasing. Within a few moments, his huge form had become taller than the pillars of the palace. The golden throne is gone. Ratnachit went to the seat. The golden lamps and the decorations of the palace also started fitting into his stomach. Then Ganesha came out of the palace. Now his huge form had become bigger than the buildings of Alkapuri. He ate the golden statues. Ate the decorations on the highways. The trees and decorative pillars in the gardens also began to disappear. There was chaos in the entire Alkapuri. People started running to save their lives and on the other hand the God of wealth was watching his entire world end before his eyes. Ganesha once again looked towards Kubera. Is there still something left Kuber ji? Because my hunger is not over yet. And if I don’t get food then perhaps I will have to eat you, Kuber ji. Saying this, Ganesha’s huge trunk slowly started moving towards Kubera. No, what are you doing Ganesh ji? Due to his attraction, the golden vessels, gems and broken pillars lying around started getting pulled towards him. For the first time, the god of wealth feared not for his wealth but for his life and the very next moment Kubera ran away from there. After some time he reached Kailash and fell at the feet of Mahadev. Mahadev, please protect me. Alkapuri is coming to an end. My reserves are exhausted. My treasury is exhausted. My palace is finished. And now Lord Ganesha himself is going to eat me. And your ego, Ganesha took that too with him, Mahadev. I had already warned you Kubera that Ganesha’s hunger is not ordinary. He was not hungry Kuber. Your ego was hungry. After this he looked towards Mother Parvati. Mother Parvati went inside and returned a few moments later with a small bowl full of rice. Kubera kept looking at that small bowl. Mother, will the hunger that has swallowed the entire Alkapuri be satisfied with this little food? Food from mother’s hands does not just fill the stomach, Kuber. Go and offer it to Ganesha with your own hands. He picked up the bowl himself with both hands. After some time he again reached Alkapuri. The huge form of Ganesha still loomed over the entire city. Kubera appeared before him. This time he did not have gold in his hands. There were no gems, no wealth. There was only one small bowl. Ganesh ji, I have nothing left to give you now. This is the food made by the hands of Mother Parvati. I will consider myself blessed if you accept. Ganesh smiled. He ate that rice and the next moment his hunger was satisfied. His massive form slowly returned to normal. Kubera kept looking at them in surprise. How is this possible? How did the hunger which even the entire Alkapuri could not satisfy, get satiated with this little food? Because today for the first time you have given me food to feed me and not to show off. Mr Kuber. For the first time, you had charity in your hands, not a demonstration. The grand feast at Alkapuri was not for me. That was to show to Mahadev. But this grain is the first thing you have n’t shown anyone. Kubera stood silently. For the first time he understood that stores could be filled with money. But not the hearts of the gods. And that day the God of Wealth learned that the greatest wealth in the world is not wealth but humility. And if you are surprised to hear this story of Kuber ji, then you will be even more surprised to know that this same Kuber was once the king of the famous golden Lanka of Ramayana and Kuber himself was the elder brother of Ravana. But then what happened that his own brother Ravana snatched Lanka from him and how Ravana also expelled Kuber from his own Alkapuri.
