Chapter 99 99. Lord Ganesha



"Huh? It's not possible for Niyati to change. Even my father can only bend, twist or turn it around but can't change it. The thing that is written will always happen, One way or another."

That handsome man looked at the Ved Vyas and spoke up as he once again put the piece of sweet in his mouth enjoying his time as he no longer had to sit and write through all that the without being able to eat his favourite sweets.

After a closer look at his appearance, it's understandable why he was not much concerned about it, His body to little on the chubby side as he has a big belly, Which also led to him being called Lambodara* (having a huge belly) but unlike that being an insult it is used to praise him.

Other than that all his other body parts are worthy for any mighty legendary warrior except one, His head, Well technically not his head but right now he has the head of an elephant.

Yes, an elephant, Which gives him the name Gajanana (The one with an elephant head), The reason why people will not look at his beauty at first glance is that all their attention will be on his head, And as every elephant, he also has a working trunk, Which he gladly uses to steal his favourite sweets behind the back of his mother.

The only thing that stands out other than his head being of the elephant is that he also has a tusk, Which was reasonable after all it is an elephant head, It's just that there was only one complete tusk.

While the other one looked like a cut-off by some strong impact, That strangely was the only thing that stood out. Other things felt like it was supposed to be always like that.

"Ganesha (Lord Of People), You are known for removing all the obstacles, I didn't expected to hear something like this from you, You out of all people know Niyati can be changed."

Ved Vyas looked at the Ganesha and smiled, This man seating here is one of those beings who can come close to changing Niyati. He is not only extremely strong, so much so he can go toe-to-toe with his own big brother, The god of war.

But the scariest and most formidable thing about him is his wits. He was considered the most intelligent being, So it was surprising for Ved Vyas that some like this man could think it was not possible.

"Rishi Ved Vyas, It's true someone really wanted, They will change their Niyati but that doesn't mean what was written for him did not happen.

If someone was supposed to die, Let him die and just bring it back. That way what is written in their destiny happens and they also "Changed" their Niyati, It's just an easy loophole. Actually changing the Niyati will turn the world into chaos, Which is not allowed to happen not even by gods but even by the world itself.

So I ask again, Why? Even if the story slightly deviated from its official track, You and I both know at the end it's going to happen as predestined."

Ganesha corrected the statement said by Bed Vyas, Indeed they can "Change" Niyati but not by going against what is written but by finding loopholes in it making it good for both worlds.

Niyati is a mystery that even they are not totally able to grasp. There are questions about who and why it was written, Why only Chitraguptawas were allowed to read the fate of others, Why book of Destiny not readable for anyone other than him?

Most of the questions were answered but there are always follow-up questions that did not get satisfactory answers. If not for the fact Ganesha has a very easygoing personality and didn't care much about such things, He would have lifted the whole world in his head just to find the answers.

"*Sigh* Yeah this was supposed to be the case, but O'Ganesha I guess you didn't hear about what happened in the assembly of Indra recently then? Chitragupta collapsed in it, While babbling about destiny was being rewritten.

After he woke up they wanted to get more information about it but his lips are shut tight. what just happened how, I am sure Niyati is changing and not only of one person but multiple.

Why don't you use your divine vision to see what I am trying to say?"

Ved Vyas nodded to answer of Ganesha, What he said is or was right but now it is not a catch, No matter how impossible it seems Niyati is indeed being changed, Though he did not have any proof but had a very strong gut feeling.

That is because he was given a special kinda divine vision that can help him to look into the future, And using this he decided to write a book about the events that were going to happen in the future named Jaya Samhita (Victory Collection), Which later be known as biggest poem Mahabharata.I think you should take a look at

This is the reason why Ganesha is here helping him with this task that because he knows no matter how much he knows about the future, He was sure he can not able to give justice to the epic, So he asked the one who can give justice to it, A master of all Veda's and knowledge.

Everything was going smoothly, Ganesha gave him the condition that he will only write till he was kept up with his writing pace, Which Ved Vays knows is very hard, So he also gave a counter proposal that Ganesha only be allowed to write down only when he understands the meaning behind every word.

So it was fine, They did well and even reached the end of the book when Ved Vyas decided to take one more glimpse into the future to capture the details even more perfectly but it was then found out that he can't look into the future.

No matter how hard he tried, all he saw was a blurred image. This at first confused him but then he remembered the news he heard about what happened in Indra's assembly some time ago, Then everything came together.

And because this book he was writing is no longer true, It will be a waste of time for both of them to continue writing it. Even though the true purpose of this book is to teach life lessons to the people but the story is changed, It will be wrong to write false things.

"Huh!...Interesting, something indeed blocking me from looking into the future but why? No wait!? It's not that this is blocking me from looking into the future, the reason why this is happening is because there is no fixed future.

This is the reason why everything is blurry, So it's true, Something indeed changing Niyati but who and why?"

Lord Ganesha did as Rishi asked him, It's just that when he closed his eyes and try to look into the future with his inner eyes, He could not see anything, Everything was blurry, It was impossible to figure out what was happening there.

When he saw that he stopped trying as he got his answer, Unlike others he quickly conclude why he was seeing blurry images. That is not because of the obstruction of other forces but because there is no future at all.

The reason why they can look into the future is because the future was already written, It was permanent and can't be changed but not anymore. The uncertainty of the future broke the means they used to look into the future.

"What are we going to do? Do we go tell Devraj (King Of Gods) Indra about this? Or go to Mahadeva?"

Ved Vyas took a slight break after Lord Ganesha revealed the actual reason of why they were not able to see the future anymore. To be honest, he didn't think it was this worse of a condition.

Before he only thought that some particular person was the one who break their own Niyati, Which was still startling but acceptable but if what Lord Ganesha said was true then that means more than one person broke their Niyati, Which means the world will soon be going to fall into chaos.

"No need Rishi, My Pitashri (Father) should already be aware of this, If he was not doing anything then he just ignored it. As for informing Indra Dev? It's up to you but I don't think he will believe you as being living in this news means his throne will be under threat, So even if it was news better for him he will not be going to hear it.

The best choice will be to just stay and watch as this matter unfolds itself."

Lord Ganesha had the answer ready for Rishi Ved Vyas, So after hearing his answer Rishi Ved Vyas also did not push it anymore as he knows how Indra can be sometimes.

But Lord Ganesha on the other hand started eating once again but this time his eyes were staring at the name in the line he last wrote…Jaya.
