Ganesha is a Hindu god with a human form, but with an elephant head. He represents the power of the Supreme Being that removes obstacles and creates success. Ganesha is the biggest god in India. His mix of animal and human parts symbolizes perfection, and has deep spiritual meaning. The elephant head symbolizes wisdom, understanding, and intellect. His wide mouth symbolizes desire to enjoy life, and his large ears symbolize that to achieve something in life you have to listen to others. Ganesha has two tusks, the left one broken. His right tusk symbolizes wisdom. His left is for emotion, and shows that one has to conquer emotions with wisdom to reach perfection. The human body with a big belly symbolizes a human heart, for compassion and kindness. The big belly portrays that an individual has to have a large capacity to perform all their duties in the world. The mouse sitting next to Ganesha shows that the ego can nibble everything that is good and noble in a person. A perfect person is one who has their ego under control.
