The Essence of Ganapathi and the Symbolism of God | கணபதியின் சாரமும் கடவுளின் அடையாளமும்
All qualities exist within us — human qualities, animal qualities, and divine qualities.
The name "Ganapathi" means "the lord of all ganas (groups or categories)."
Miruga ganam refers to the animal kingdom, manitha ganam to the human kingdom, and deiva ganam to the divine kingdom.
That is why Ganapathi is worshipped before beginning any task.
Ganapathi is the first and foremost deity.
When we ask, “Who is the Aadhi (the beginning) point?”, it is none other than Pillaiyar (Ganesha). That point itself is the Aadhi Shakti — the primordial energy. That is why Pillaiyar has five arms. There is a saying: "Five hands and an elephant face.” The special hand (or limb) is the trunk (thumbikkai). The five hands represent five divine powers:
creation (aākal),
protection (kāthal),
destruction (azhithal),
concealment (maraiythal), and
grace (arulal).
The one who possesses and celebrates these five types of powers is that Aadhi Shakti. To help people understand this concept, it was conveyed by associating it with a physical form.
To help people understand and relate to this universe, they created the form of Vinayagar (Ganesha). They created the form of Nataraja. They created the form of Vishnu. These are symbolic representations to help people grasp the divine power that governs the universe. In order to make the identification of God possible, a symbol or form was created to represent that supreme energy. This helped people connect with and understand the divine more easily.
