Analasura

Music
Once, there lived a dangerous Asura names Analasura,
who breathed fire from his mouth.
Analasura was protected by a boon to fire and burn whoever opposed him.
If anyone dare to go near him were reduced to ashes.
Unable to bear the deeds of Analsura, the Devas sought the help of Lord Ganesha.
Don't worry. I shall help you and protect this world from the evil Analasura.
I am the ruler of this universe.
All the devas and holy saints are my servants.
HAAAAAHAHAHAH
There is no one in this universe to oppose me.
Haaaah Haah Ha Ha
Haaaah Haah Ha Ha
Analasura, don't be too proud of yourself.
It's time to pay for your evil deeds.
How dare you stand infront of me?
Huhhhhh
Don't become a prey to my fire.
Run away for your life.....UUUUH Ha Ha Ha
Analasura, I have not come here to run away from you.
I will put an end to your evil deeds and save this world from the heat of fire you generate.
After the terrible battle between Lord Ganesh and Analasura.
Lord Ganesha took a gigantic form caught hold of Analasura and swallowed him completely.
Ahhhhhh,Ahhhhhh, My whole body is on fire.
I am unable to bear the heat.
Oh...Do something to quench the fire.
Ahhhhhh
The Devas started pouring cold water from the Ganges on the head of Lord Ganesha
to cut the heat. But it was of no use.
They tried pouring thousand of tender coconut on Ganesha's head.
But it was of no use.
They brought snow and ice from the mountain peaks and placed them on Ganesha's head.
But it was of no use.
They also placed the cool moon on Ganesha's head when they found that nothing would help put off the heat.
One of the holy sages said,
The Dharba Grass has the power to cool down any kind of heat from the body
Bring some dharba grass and place it on Lord Ganesha's head
and he will be saved from the body heat,
The sages brought some Dharba grass and placed them on Ganesha's head,
The heat gradually decreased from his body.
Offering Dharba grass to Lord Ganesha became a practice from that day onwards.
