Traditionally Hand- Carved Ganesha Statue for Meditation and Ritual
Delicately handcrafted in our workshop, the traditional carved Ganesha statue is intricately designed with unique Nepali patterns. The elephant head deity is depicted seated atop a moon disc lotus seat bearing four arms representing his omnipresence and his ability to accomplish multiple tasks at once. He holds an item symbolic to him in each hand, like the moodak, a sweet treat in his first right hand, a hatchet indicating his ability to cut through obstacles in his second right hand, and a crystal rosary bead in his left hand.
This statue is comprised of oxidized copper and beautifully painted with acrylic colors, enhancing its beauty. This statue's beautiful detailing and gold gilding are sure to capture the eye and add a sense of peace and tranquility to any setting. An ideal Buddhist shrine addition can be a meditative accompaniment for yourself or any devotee.

The popularity of Buddhist Ganesha extends beyond the spiritual. Ganesha is a Sanskrit name for the protector of prosperity and the remover of hindrances in Tibetan Buddhism. He is Vinayaka, a directional Protector. Avalokiteshvara persuades Ganesha to become a Dharma Protector in one of the Tantra stories.
