This beautiful
brass piece represents Ganesha seated, with his left foot folded under him and
the right foot placed on the base. His headgear is a composite of turban and
crown, behind we can see his aura, to mark his divine persona, a feature of
Indian religious sculptures. Out of his four hands, the two at the back hold
one noose each, to capture all the hurdles of his worshippers with one quick
movement of his hand. In his left hand below, he holds a laddu, his favorite
sweet, because even gods can have a sweet tooth! His right hand is raised in
Abhaya mudra, symbolizing fearlessness, telling all beings to have no fear, for
the God of wisdom and auspiciousness is on our side. The intricacy of the work can
be seen in the way his dhoti/loincloth folds are shown.
What makes this
piece stand apart is- the hands on which Ganesha is comfortably seated.
According to a shloka from the Vishnu Purana meant to be recited early in the
morning while looking at our palms, the goddess of prosperity Lakshmi resides
in the tip of our fingers, goddess of knowledge Saraswati is located in the
middle and the part above the wrist is where Govinda, a form of Vishnu. These
godheads, including Ganesha, represent auspiciousness and good luck. This piece
hence brings to you the blessings of not one but four supremely powerful
godheads, with an equally powerful message- our luck is in our hands.
An unusual part
of the image is the roses at the base instead of the traditional lotus flowers
associated with gods, making it a perfect blend of antiquity and modernity and
qualifying it to be the next purchase for your collection.
