Lord Ganesha

Lord Ganesha is one of the most powerful Hindu Gods. He also goes by the names Vinayaka and Ganapati. Lord Ganesha is the brother of Lord Kartikeya and the son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati.

The three attributes Buddhi, Siddhi, and Riddhi, which are translated as wisdom, spirituality, and prosperity, respectively, are embodied in Lord Ganesha. The personification of Buddha Himself is Lord Ganesha. The other two virtues are represented by Goddesses and are thought to be Lord Ganesha's consorts. The majority of the artworks depict Ganesha standing between two consorts, Riddhi and Siddhi. Riddhi and Siddhi are thought to be the daughters of Lord Brahma, who officiated at Lord Ganesha's wedding.


The image of Lord Ganesha is an elephant-headed guy with a human body. He is frequently portrayed as having four hands and holding a noose and a goad in his upper hands. Lord Ganesha is depicted with one of his lower hands in the Abhay Mudra while holding a bowl of modaks in the other lower hand. A mouse serves as Lord Ganesha's mount.

According to the Shiva Purana, Lord Ganesha had two sons, Shubh and Labh. The personifications of good fortune and profit are Shubh and Labh, respectively. Labh and Shubh were the children of the goddesses Siddhi and Riddhi, respectively.
