Most Gods are known by titles such as the Almighty, the invincible one, etc. But Ganesha, nothing so cliched. Our tubby Ganesha is more approachable, a benevolent being who reigns over our day-to-day activities and creeps into our hearts. One of the Ganesh mantras when translated means "Oh Ganesh of the curved trunk and great body, whose splendor equals that of a million suns, May your blessings remove all obstacles in my endeavors." Mooshika (little mouse) symbolizes ignorance and darkness, as also unfulfilled desires from previous births that drive us to actions in our present birth. Ganesha represents the power of intellect, the triumph of wisdom over folly. Ganesha as its master is evocative of the need to triumph over these base qualities within us. In this hand-painted Ganesh sculpture a childlike Ganesha is depicted leaning on the mouse. Bright colors, gold and silver accents and a friendly pose, makes this Ganesh a unique buy. This Ganesh statue will bring a smile to your face and fills your heart with warmth every time you see it. The statue measures 21 inches wide and 13 inches high. Handmade, minor artistic variations and defects add to the character of the piece.
