Lord Ganesha, the son of supreme lord Shiva and Devi Parvati, is one of the most venerated and worshipped Gods in the Hindu religion. Being an ancient deity, his references could be traced back to the Vedas.
However, unlike the other Vedic deities, his influence on the people of this land has only increased with time. Lord Ganesha is worshipped at the beginning of every new undertaking and venture because he is the Vighnaharta (the one who takes away obstacles on the path).
He is a very benevolent deity who bestows divine grace upon his devotees. This form of Ganesha, also known as Herambha Ganesh is a very unique form of the lord and very rarely found in the temples or ancient art pieces.
In Sanskrit, 'He' means weak or helpless, and 'Rambha' means the protector. Thus, Herambha Ganesh is the ultimate protector of the weak and the helpless.
