Ganesha, the divine being known to clear obstacles from the path of his worshippers, is the ‘lord of Ganas’ and is the dynamic sign of new beginnings.
With his blessings, it is said that even the toughest of jobs become easy and success gets in reach of the worshipper.
Son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, Ganesh has the blessings from the Universe of being the first god that one worships before bowing to any other divine being.
He is often seen holding an axe and a rope in either hand, symbolizing cutting off obstacles as well as unhealthy attachments and bringing the worshipper closer to the divine being with the rope.
This brass superfine statue of Ganesha wearing a pagdi (turban) gets a chic spiritual twist to your environment. This natural-looking Ganesha idol is filled with rich textured ornaments and an impeccable turban that redefines Ganesha’s look. Right from the Trishul on Ganesha’s forehead, Modak in the hand representing the lord’s blessing to the mouse on the feast of Ganesha representing desires in control, the Ganesha idol is painted in rich appearance.
ABOUT HINDU GOD GANESHA
There is much to Lord Ganesha that charm the senses and the soul. Exotic India's lifelike Ganesha sculptures bring it out to perfection. The Hindu boy-god is widely adored for His innocence and His generosity with divine blessings. His childlike appeal lies primarily in His love of laddoos, a quintessential Indian sweetmeat, without which His iconography remains incomplete. He is usually portrayed as Chaturbhuja Ganesha (Sanskrit for 'four-armed'). In one hand He holds a miniature goad or a noose, a weapon He wields over the adharmi; in another His only tusk, with which He wrote the Mahabharata; in another He holds a pot of laddoos; while the palm of His final hand is turned erect and outward in the gesture of blessing.
Exotic India has a vast collection of not just the four-armed Ganesha, but also the sixteen-armed and the dancing Ganesha. There are many sides to His personality, each to bring out a different facet of the devotee's spiritual makeup. The son of Ma Durga, Ganeshaji is a ferocious warrior and boasts of invincible skill that conquers the adharmi. With Shiv ji His father, He breaks into a divine dance routine that becomes His child's limbs and demeanour. An important aspect of Ganesha ji is the trident mark on His forehead, indicative of His father in Whose iconography the trident is indispensable. In some portrayals, He sits with His plump form hunched up over the Mahabharata, the very picture of singular focus.
