Say A Prayer 细鼠祈祷

Thailand - Bangkok (Phra Phikanet Huai Khwang Shrine)

泰国 — 曼谷（泰天神殿慧光路口象神）

In Thailand, there are many Indian Elephant God shrines but this one which located at the cross junction is the most popular.

在泰国，有好多印度象神庙，但就属这设在十字路口的香火最鼎盛。

The Elephant God (Ganesha) is the eldest son of Shiva and Pravati.

象神（迦尼薩）是湿婆神与雪山女神的大儿子。

It is generally believed that seeking wealth and fame is particularly effective.

一般认为求财富、名望，特别灵验。

In the mind of Thais, Elephant God is equivalent to God of Wealth.

在泰国人的心目中，象神等同于财神。

In addition to fame and fortune, Elephant God also controls luck and wisdom.

除了名利，象神也主掌幸运和智慧。

This is God Shiva and Goddess Pravati.

这就是湿婆神与雪山女神。

Donate any amount you want then pick up a bunch of flowers, a candle and five joss sticks at the counter beside the statue.

随意捐款，然后到神像旁边的祭品部领取一大串花、一根蜡烛、五支香。

Whisper your prayer into the ear of the mouse next to the Elephant God.

将你的祷告轻声细语（不是叫你鬼鬼鼠鼠）地告诉象神旁边的老鼠。

Make sure that you cover the mouse's other ear so that your prayer will not slip away.

记得在对着老鼠的一边耳朵细述祷告的同时，要捂住老鼠的另一只耳朵；以免左耳进右耳出。

This mouse is the vehicle of the Elephant God and it is considered by Thais as the "fortune mouse".

此老鼠可是象神的坐骑，更被泰国人认为是“招财鼠”。

This shrine also enshrines many deities at the same time.

此座神社也同时供奉多尊天神。

Among all, God Rahu helps you exclude nasty people. 

其中拉壶天神最厉害的是帮你排除小人。

The shrine is open to public all day for worship.

神社全天开放供善信膜拜。
