Meaning:
Uma taking the form of female elephant, in the form of
male elephant the Lord of valivalam - the place of
philanthropists, blessed the devotees by bringing out
gaNapathi who removes the hurdles of the devotees
worshiping the Holy Feet of the Lord !
Notes:
1. The significance of gaNesha is beautifully
explained in this hymn. This also very cleanly
explains why gaNapathi worship is taken up first
before starting the pUjA of the Supreme Lord shiva.
2. Note the words "vara aruLinan" and also notice the
words, "oru thiru murugan van^dhAN^gu 'udhiththanan' "
in kandha purANam.
3. piDi - female elephant, kari - male elephant, iDar
- hurdles

I said I gave my body - became far off from guru's teachings
I said I gave my mind - became far off from the linga
I said I gave my wealth - became far off from the devotees
There is nothing more disasterous than the disaster I got ito by saying "I did for You", kUDalasangamadEva ! - basavaNNa
