About Ganesha:

Ganesha is a zoomorphic Indian deity having an elephantine head and a human body. He is attributed with the titles of 'Siddhidata' (Donor of success) and 'Sankatmochan' (saviour). He is also worshipped as the God of knowledge, wisdom, education and wealth. Each part of the Ganesha statue has iconographic significance. Ganesha's head represents the 'atma' or the soul of human beings, signifying the ultimate reality of life. His human body represents 'Maya' or the illusory physical existence of humans. His potbelly contains infinite universes. Ganesha's curved trunk represents 'Oum', the sound symbol of cosmic reality. His big, fan like ears symbolize his attention to the prayers of His devotees. The position of his legs symbolizes the importance of participating in both the material and spiritual world. His Goad rids all difficulties and leads human beings ahead in the path of eternal wisdom. The noose in Ganesha's left hand is employed to capture all difficulties. The broken tusk that Ganesha holds like a pen in his lower right hand is a symbol of sacrifice. He broke it for writing the Mahabharat, the great Indian epic. The presence of Ganesha in your home or office is sure to bring you good fortune. Let Ganesha's blessings enrich your life.
