Bhagwan Shree Ganesha / भगवान श्री गणेश

Lord Shree Ganesh is god of knowledge and the remover of obstacles.

Bhagwan Ganesha is worshipped, or at least remembered, in the beginning of any auspicious performance for blessings and auspiciousness.

Ganpati Bappa has four hands, elephant's head and a big belly. Bhagwan Shri Ganesha vehicle is a tiny mouse. In his hands Shri Ganesha carries a rope (to carry devotees to the truth), an axe (to cut devotees' attachments), and a sweet dessert ball "Laddoo" (to reward devotees for spiritual activity).

Shree Ganesha fourth hand's palm is always extended to bless people.

A unique combination of his elephant like head and a quick moving tiny mouse vehicle represents tremendous wisdom, intellegence, and presence of mind.
