"Ganesha is said to be one of the most well-known and worshipped deities in the Hindu Pantheon, continuing to hold many devotees and adorers to this day. The earliest mention of Ganesha dates to 3,000 BCE, since the times of the Indus Valley Civilization. Many transformations and incarnations of Ganesha have been recorded and popularized through the centuries. Each incarnation bears many stories and specific symbolism to accompany him during that time. As the remover of obstacles, Ganesha is said to not only clear the path before you, but to protect and bring prosperity. We urge you to continue your research and study on Ganesha as he carries with him an amazing history, filled with wonderful stories and deep mysticism."
