Ganesh - patron of Jyotish
GANESH - PATRON of JYOTISH
Ganesha is a formless divinity - encapsulated in magnificent form.
According to Hindu mythology, the son of Shiva and the goddess Parvati.
Ganesha is the same energy that is the reason for this universe.
It is the energy from which everything is manifested and into which everything will dissolve.
Symbolics:
- ELEPHANT HEAD - the elephant represents gyan shakti and karma shakti. The main properties of the elephant are wisdom and lightness. A huge elephant's head means wisdom and knowledge. Elephants do not walk around obstacles, nor stop them. Just removing them and going on ahead - indicate ease. So when we worship the deity of Ganesha, these qualities within us illuminate and we take on these characteristics;
- THE BIG EARS mean that we have to listen to more;
- SMALL MOUTH means we need to talk less;
- BIG BELLY represents generosity and complete acceptance. In addition, it also illustrates that we digest everything well and bad in our lives;
- ARMS / PALMS - raised arm shows protection. Means: "Do not be afraid, I am with you" and his arm dropped, the palm facing outwards means infinite giving as well as an invitation to a gift. This is also a symbolic fact that we will all spill into the earth once;
- ONE TUSK - means one-dimensionality, as well as being thrown off badly and following the good;
- In his hands he wears "Ankus" (means awakening) and "Paaso" (marking control). A lot of energy is released through the awakening, which can stop winding without proper supervision;
- AXE illustrates the control and mood of the mind;
- PRASAD (spiritual food) means that the whole world is at your feet;
- MOUSE - Ganesh, the great God travels on something as small as a mouse. The mouse is like a mantra that can cut the coats and coats of ignorance, leading to the ultimate knowledge represented by Ganesh!
