Ganesha is easily identified by his elephant head. Ganesha is widely regarded as a remover of obstacles, a patron of the arts and sciences, and a deva of intellect and wisdom. As the god of beginnings, he is honoured at the start of rites and ceremonies. Ganesha is frequently worshipped as a patron of literature and education. Vinayaka is a common name for Ganesha found in Puras and Buddhist Tantras. His name is reflected in the naming of Maharashtra's Ashtavinayak temples. He could be shown standing, dancing, or taking bold action.
