SHRI GANESH

Very few deities like Ganesh have made such a deep and loving impact on the Hindu mind. He is a kind of God one feels love for instead of awe or fear. This elephant headed God is the destroyer of all obstacles and endower of intelligence. No good deed is commenced before praying to Ganesh first.

In this exquisite glass painting, Ganesh is shown as writing the text of the enormous epic poem, Mahabharat. It is said that the narrator, Veda Vyasa, an extremely intelligent being, only approached Lord Ganesh to write the epic as he narrated it. He would not trust other God or human being for such a
stupendous task. Mahabharata is the longest epic poem in the world and is longer than Illiyad and Odyssey put together.
