Ganesha is the deity who opens every path and removes every obstacle: no business, journey, marriage, or construction begins without his blessing. Protector of children, guide for men in their work, and blessing the harvests of farmers. With his immense strength, like that of the elephant who clears away every obstacle, and the intelligence of the mouse that accompanies him, Ganesha represents victory over human difficulties.
He is the embodiment of spiritual power and infinite love, a source of positive energy for the world. Son of Shiva and Parvati, his birth is shrouded in myth: created by his mother from skin flakes, soap residues, and fragrant oils to keep her company, he was placed as a guardian at the door while she bathed. Ignoring who his father was, he barred Shiva from entering. Angry and confused, Shiva beheaded him.
Remover of Obstacles and Guardian of New Beginnings
Parvati, desperate, threatened to destroy heaven and earth. To calm her, Shiva found the head of the first living being looking north: an elephant. He placed it on Ganesha’s body, giving him life again and transforming him into the “leader of the celestial hosts.”
Ganesha is depicted with a single tusk, lost during a famous battle with Parashu Rama, an incarnation of Vishnu, and wears a snake as a belt, symbolizing strength and control. He loves sweets, especially modakas, and on his birthday, after eating too many, he fell from his mouse mount, causing his belly to burst and sweets to scatter everywhere.
Symbol of Wisdom, Strength, and Spiritual Guidance
Angered by the moon that laughed at him, he cursed it, giving rise to myths linked to the sky and moon.His appearance is not “beautiful” by classical standards, but precisely because of this, he is beloved: he radiates serenity, confidence, and contagious joy. He is worshiped throughout India and Asia, in many forms, from monumental statues to small miniatures. Ganesha is the symbol of every blessed beginning, the spiritual guide who helps humans overcome obstacles with wisdom and love.
