Introduction To Ganesh, Bodhisattva Deity
The popularity of Buddhist Ganesha extends beyond the spiritual. Ganesha is a Sanskrit name for the protector of prosperity and the remover of hindrances in Tibetan Buddhism. He is Vinayaka, a directional Protector. Avalokiteshvara persuades Ganesha to become a Dharma Protector in one of the Tantra stories. ------------------------------------------------ Size: 11cm (Height) x 12cm (Base) Weight: 1.13 kg Material: Brass body ------------------------------------------------ How do take care of your statues?
• Place them at room temperature, avoiding direct sunlight. • Make sure that the area where your statue is placed is completely free of moisture and dust. • Place it at the highest place on your altar after being consecrated by Lama/monks. The best practice is to keep them covered inside a glass cabinet. • Do not use your bare hands or any objects with a rough surface to wipe the face. Directly touching with the bare hand objects can smudge the face, leaving scratches.
