This impressive four-armed Ganesha sits respendently on a Singhasana flanked by
twin roaring lion-faced cushions. A nimbus of scallop shapes crowned
by a demon head is the platform for Lord Ganesha's umbrella, with its brass
tassels hanging down. Lord Ganesha himself wears an elaborate and imposing
Mukha (ritual crown), and has the mark of the Trisula (trident)
at the base of his serpentine trunk. This is the favorite weapon and symbol
of Ganesha's father, Shiva, symbolizing creation, protection, and destruction.
Lord Ganesha's right hand is raised in the Abhaya mudra, while in
his left hand is the pen with which he transcribed the Mahabharata.
Another hand holds high a battle axe. A flowing scarf is draped gracefully
across his shoulders, each end resting upon his knees. At his feet in
abject adoration with front paws clasped in prayer crouches his mount, faithful
shrew Mooshika, on a lotus-petal embellished footstool. (Price
includes free shipping and handling within the continental United States.) GAN-9 Lord Ganesha
