Description
The broken tusk held in the left hand shows that He is the refuge for all. His huge belly is indicative of His tolerance & also signifies that all things, the entire Universe, are contained in Him. His feet stand for the bestowal of siddhi & buddhi, attainment of desires & knowledge. ► Ganesh & Krishna often share the same poses & symbols. Kaliya, the serpent is most often associated with lord Krishna. Ganesh dances upon the coils of the seven headed serpent as if he is as light as a feather. The 7 heads poised above Him giving him shelter. The dancing Ganesh is holding his broken tusk that he used to write the Mahabharata epic, an elephant goad, & a discus. Goads are symbolic of how one should steer the soul away from the ignorance & illusions of this earthly world just as a mahout would steer an elephant away from any treacherous path. He has simple yet elegant jewelry with his chest being bare & a beautiful crown with his robes swirling out on both sides in flourishing curls. A beautiful sculpture of a jubilant Ganesh!
