Lord Ganesh, also known as Ganpati, is a Hindu God of beginnings. His elephant head symbolises wisdom and good fortune, his broken tusk represents sacrifice for knowledge, and his vehicle, a mouse, signifies the control of desires. Ganesh Puja is commonly done before starting a new venture like a wedding, business, or housewarming. Ganesh Puja is a Hindu ritual performed to honour Lord Ganesha and seek blessings for the removal of obstacles and new beginnings.
