God Ganesha, the beloved elephant-headed deity in Hinduism, is revered as the remover of obstacles and the god of wisdom and intellect. With his distinctive appearance and gentle nature, he is invoked at the beginning of any important endeavor. Ganesha is worshipped for blessings of success, knowledge, and good fortune. He is often depicted with a broken tusk, a symbol of sacrifice, and a mouse as his vehicle. Devotees seek his guidance and protection through prayers, rituals, and offerings.
