Ganesha, the elephant-headed god, is the remover of obstacles and the lord of wisdom and beginnings. When depicted as the "Lotus Ganesha," the lotus flower emphasizes the idea of purity and divine emergence. Ganesha is holding a pasa (noose) and ankusha (elephant goad) in two of his hands. The pasa is used to capture and remove obstacles, while the ankusha symbolizes control and guidance. The other two hands are making the abhaya gesture, representing the granting of fearlessness, and one hand is holding a modak, a sweet delicacy that is one of Ganesha's favorite treats. This representation highlights Ganesha's multifaceted nature, as the remover of obstacles, the protector, the provider of blessings, and the symbol of wisdom. Worshipping this form of Ganesha is a way to seek his blessings for the removal of obstacles, protection, and the granting of fearlessness and wisdom in one's life.
