Defining Features of the Statue: Ganesh is magnificent and impressive! His large body is made even bigger with his 5 heads and 10 arms. Pancha Mukha Ganapati (5 Headed Ganesh) is seated on top of a large lion with exposed teeth and curled tail. The lion has an ample mane of hair around his neck. Four of Ganesh's heads face in each direction with a smaller head on top of the four heads. The Ganesh head on top is smaller and has a cork screw shaped trunk. In Ganesh's 10 hands He holds, going clockwise from his bottom right hand in the abhaya mudra, a nut, His broken tusk, prayer malas, a hammer, a noose, club, elephant goad and a mango. There is a small bell tied around four of His trunks. Two cobras form his large belt. His two feet are up towards his body in a relaxed seated position of a baby. The lion and Ganesh are separate pieces. Ganesh slides onto the back of the lion to secure the two pieces together. About Pancha Ganapati Celebration: Pancha Ganapati is a five-day festival celebrated from December 21 through 25. The winter solstice has always been a festive time of year in all countries, religions and among Hindus especially, for it is a traditional season for the worship of Lord Ganesha, the elephant-headed Lord of Culture and the Arts. The five days of Pancha Ganapati offer a Hindu expression of this natural season of worship, gift-giving and celebration. During each of the five days of Pancha Ganapati, a special sadhana, spiritual discipline, is focused upon by the entire family. A shrine is created in the main living room of the home and decorated in the spirit of this festive occasion. At the center is placed a large wooden or bronze five-faced murti of Lord Pancha Ganapati. Article adapted from Hinduism Today Care: The piece can be used both indoors and outdoors.
