The son of Shiva and Shakti, Lord Ganesha in Newari culture is the symbol of supreme wisdom and the source of cosmic power. He is presented in the Nepalese statue in his usual four-armed form with several unusual attributes. The rosary in his hand represents the infinity of wisdom and the carrot in his hand is a symbol of agricultural richness, which is achieved by his benevolent protectiveness. On the lotus throne of Ganesha, his Mushaka offering a modaka to the elephant-faced Lord creates a devoted vision within the composition.
