What is the significance of the form Lord Ganesha?
Let us begin with a brief exploration into the auspicious form Lord Ganesha. Later, in the course of our inquiries we shall find that the profound form of Sri Ganesha signifies a highly evolutionary theme on how the universe originated from the Supreme Reality and on how man can evolve to the higher spiritual dimensions realizing his divine possibilities. Ganesha’s form is a figurative representation of Pranavam (OM), the causative primeval vibration of the Divine Intelligence-Energy combination, the dynamic Source of the infinite phenomena of the universe.(Lord Ganesha is represented as the Son of Lord Shiva – the Supreme Intelligence – and Goddess Shakthi – the Supreme Energy – aspects of Brahman, the Supreme Reality.) Therefore, propitiating Sri Ganesha before the beginning of every important action or event is activating this most powerful Intelligence-Energy divine dynamism. For harmony, peace and progress let us all invoke Lord Ganesha, the Divine Dynamism in us. ================
