Ganesha, also spelled Ganesh, also called Ganapati, elephant-headed Hindu god, who is traditionally worshipped before any major activity and is the patron of intellectuals, bankers, scribes, and authors. Ganapati means both “Lord of the People” (gana means the common people) and “Lord of the Ganas” (Ganesha is the chief of the ganas, the goblin hosts of Shiva). His vahana is the large Indian bandicoot rat, which symbolizes Ganesha’s ability to overcome anything to get what he wants. Like a rat and like an elephant, Ganesha is a remover of obstacles. Lord Shiva and Parvati Devi are there parents, Subramanya (Karthikeya) is his brother. His image are found throughout India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Fiji, Thailand, Mauritius, Bali (Indonesia) and Bangladesh.
