Ganesh, also known as Ganesha, is one of the most beloved and widely worshiped deities in Hinduism.
He is often depicted with an elephant head and a human body, symbolizing wisdom, intellect, and strength.
Ganesh is considered the remover of obstacles and the lord of beginnings, making him an auspicious figure for new ventures and endeavors.
His vehicle, or mount, is a tiny mouse, which represents his ability to navigate through the smallest of spaces and overcome obstacles.
