From one of the preeminent writers of Hinduism, comes the story of Ganesh, the elephant-headed god of potential, in a beautifully illustrated new gift format. Ganesh, the elephant-headed god, symbolizes possibility and transcendence from obstacles. Stationed at a sacred threshold, Ganesh is being reintroduced as a modern and universal torchlight for the curious, inquisitive seeker in all hearts. This delightful mini book features gorgeously illustrated images of Ganesh from both traditional and contemporary artists.
