His elephant’s trunk denotes power as well as discernment. It can uproot a tree and also pick out a needle in a haystack. He has two tusks; one broken and one whole, to remind him that life comes in pairs of opposites. However, he knows enlightened awareness means going beyond opposites— good and evil, light and shadow, sacred and profane. He has a huge stomach because he takes on everyone’s problems and creatively “digests” them. Frequently he wears a snake as a belt, a symbolic expression of subduing the ego. His four hands hold a rope for climbing the tree of knowledge, an axe to destroy ignorance, a book of sacred wisdom CVedas) and the fruit of knowledge, respectively. One foot is in the ground and the other is elevated because he is simultaneously local and non-local, imminent and transcendent, in this world and not of it, time-bound and timeless all at the same time. A mouse is frequently seen beside his feet reminding us that even in higher consciousness, greed can be a temptation, Two Goddesses stand by his side, the first one is Siddhi. She represents super-natural powers. The other one is Riddhi who represents control over the elements and forces of nature. Each and every God in the pantheon, like Ganesha, represents various forces and elements that lay in embryo in each of us, Look at Ganesha. Emulate him. Cultivate the qualities of consciousness that he represents in your awareness and you too can become the remover of obstacles, the Lord of knowledge, with two beautiful goddesses Siddhi and Riddhi as your allies, Now that’s a real superhero.
