Ganesha, also known as Ganapati or Vinayaka, is one of the most beloved and widely worshipped deities in Hinduism. Recognized by his elephant head, large ears, and round belly, he is revered as the remover of obstacles (Vighnaharta) and the god of wisdom, intellect, and new beginnings. Devotees invoke Ganesha at the start of any significant venture, whether spiritual, educational, or material, seeking his blessings for success and clarity. He is the son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati and is deeply associated with learning, writing, and the arts. Symbolically, his elephant head represents wisdom and understanding, while his large ears emphasize the importance of listening. He holds various items, such as a rosary, a parashu (axe), a modak (a sweet), and sometimes a reddish fruit, all conveying spiritual and material abundance. Ganesha is often depicted seated on a lotus base with a moon disc, and his vehicle, the mouse (mooshak), symbolizes humility and the control of desire.
