Flickr Friday- I Made this or should I say he made me...
I made this play doh model of Indian Lord Ganesha, his vehicle "the mouse" and his favorite sweet ladoos and modak. Devotion of Lord Ganesha or Ganpati is worshiped widely amongst Hindus, Jains and Buddhists..
Although he is known by many attributes, Ganesha's elephant head makes him easy to identify.He is the son of goddess Parvati. Ganesha is widely revered as the remover of obstacles,the patron of arts and sciences and the deva of intellect and wisdom. As the god of beginnings, he is honoured at the start of rituals and ceremonies. Ganesha is also invoked as patron of letters and learning during writing sessions. Several texts relate mythological anecdotes associated with his birth and exploits and explain his distinct iconography.Tomorrow is Ganesh Chaturthi, a festival celebrated in India in honor of Ganesha.
