Ganesha, 30 cm

Ganesha is perhaps the most popular of all Indian gods. He is considered the son of Parvati and Shiva. According to legend, Shiva withdrew for meditation and Parvati created a son out of loneliness. When Shiva returned, he beheaded him in anger. After realizing what he had done, he ordered the head of the first one who passed by to be placed on Ganesha's body to revive him. This was an elephant - a new god was born, combining the power of Shiva and Parvati.
It is said that he removes all obstacles. Thus, he is often invoked before any kind of venture. He ensures material and spiritual prosperity, making him the patron saint of business people. But also at every new beginning, be it a move or a new job, Ganesha must not be missing, as he blesses the new situation and promises luck.
Ganesha has four arms. They represent the four aspects of the subtle body: mind, ego, spirit, and consciousness.
