2.2 Inch Sleeping Baby Ganesha Brass Statue - Deity of Beginnings and Obstacle Removal
Elevate your spiritual space with a remarkable 2.2 inch High Bronze statue of Sleeping Baby Ganesha, the beloved son of Shiva and Parvati. Ganesha, renowned for his profound ability to eliminate obstacles, embodies the role of a revered deity, often regarded as the guardian of doorways and the harbinger of new beginnings. His name is commonly invoked prior to embarking on fresh endeavors.
According to a prominent myth, Ganesha was crafted by Parvati from the discarded dry skin during her bath, while Shiva was temporarily absent. Entrusted to protect her chamber's entrance, Ganesha's confrontation with the returning Shiva resulted in a tragic misunderstanding, leading to Ganesha's accidental decapitation. In an earnest effort to make amends, Shiva bestowed upon Ganesha the head of the first living being encountered, an elephant. Portrayed as a plump child, Ganesha's imagery encompasses a bowl of sweetmeats in his lower left hand, along with a rosary, an ax, and a broken tusk, symbolizing his fascinating stories and attributes.
