GANESH is the elephant-headed Hindu god of prosperity who removes obstacles and blesses new beginnings. He is the most popular and widely worshipped deity, and once you get to know him, he will be your new best friend. A superstar in his native land, Ganesh is embraced by everyone regardless of religious or spiritual preference.
Ganesh is all about the new-new. When new enterprises or houses need prayers, he has the power. Ganesh protects new ventures, a new day, or when traveling somewhere you've never been. Ganesh removes obstacles so you can find your dharma.
Tips for Ganesh shopping: Ganesh finds you. Look at the face and expression.
Ganesh has a human body and an elephant head. He has a third eye on his forehead and holds a goad in one hand and a noose in the other. He has a broken tusk. A cobra around his pot belly reminds him of his father Shiva. His best friend is a mouse. He has between 2 and 16 arms. A trunk turned to the right means to attain moksha or renounce the world. A trunk turned to the left means success in the world.
On my trips to India, I brought back hand-painted carved Ganesh for the Good Karma Shop. As they sold quickly and I was not traveling to India, I found vendors with those identical statues at the crystal trade shows. I am lucky to be able to offer them to you because they are indeed my favorites. These are joyful pieces to have on your desk or in your decor. Client and friend Miranda Kerr collects some of my favorites.
