Trishul Ganesh Statue/Trishul Ganpati Idol (त्रिशूल गणेश): Lord Ganesh, the Remover of Obstacles, is rich in symbolism used as spiritual guides. Each symbol associated with the elephant-headed Hindu god is viewed as a reminder to manifest the powers held within us. Ganesh, a much-beloved and worshiped deity, is the son of Lord Shiva and Parvati. He is also the God of wisdom, prosperity, and auspiciousness.
A Ganesh hand-carved statue is in many postures and forms, typically with four or eight arms, holding various symbolic objects. Lord Ganesh is often dancing or playing a musical instrument, such as a flute. He is sometimes accompanied by or riding a rat (or the mouse) – a symbol of all-pervasiveness. The rat one can interpret as under Ganesh’s control, which is symbolic of a spiritual pursuit to attain self-realization and grace. (Trishul Ganesh Statue)
Even the position of Lord Ganesh’s trunk has significance and special meaning. Like all of Ganesh’s symbols and traits, each hold an interesting difference in the benefits devotees would get. If the idol trunk turns left, it signifies blessings of wealth, success and pleasure. To his right, the trunk represents moksha-related benefits – understanding that all pleasures on earth are momentary and to take the path of achieving bliss. His cracked tusk held in the right hand broke off with purpose to use as a writing tool for the Mahabharata Epic. This is as a symbol of sacrifice, strength and demonstrates that we must finish what we start. (Trishul Ganesh Statue)
Legend
Some of the most popular sacred symbols in Lord Ganesh statues are an elephant goad, bowls full of Indian sweets or honey, an axe, and an upside-down noose. Goads are symbolic of how one should steer the soul away from the ignorance and illusions of this earth, just as man would steer an elephant away from a treacherous path. (Trishul Ganesh Statue)
Modakapatra, also known as a bowl of sweets, exemplifies Ganesh’s love of sweets and the symbol He loves most – moksha, or liberation, one the sweetest of all things sweet. The axe is a tool to destroy ignorance in the world. The noose illustrates the notion to draw loved-ones close. But also reminds us to encircle and save strayed ones in extraordinary ways.
