Lord Ganesha in ashirvad posture (Gesture of blessing).
Lord Ganesha in the Ashirvad (or "blessing") posture is a popular depiction that emphasises his role as a divine protector and provider of blessings. This pose is deeply symbolic, representing Ganesha's ability to remove obstacles and bestow prosperity, wisdom, and success upon his devotees.
Ashirvad (Blessing) Posture
Hand Gesture: In this posture, Lord Ganesha is typically depicted with one of his right hands raised in the "Abhaya Mudra," which is the gesture of blessing and protection. The open palm facing outward symbolises reassurance, divine protection, and the dispelling of fears.
Other Attributes: In his other hands, Ganesha might hold his traditional attributes, such as a modak (a sweet), an axe, or a noose, symbolising abundance, the cutting away of attachments, and guidance on the spiritual path.
Spiritual Meaning
Protection and Guidance:
The Ashirvad posture is a visual representation of Ganesha's role as the protector and remover of obstacles. It reassures devotees of his constant presence and guidance in their lives.
Blessings for Success: This form is especially revered by those seeking blessings for new endeavours, whether in business, education, or spiritual pursuits.
Apatite from Brazil
Gemstone Characteristics:
Apatite is a stunning, often blue or green gemstone known for its vibrant colour and clarity. Brazilian apatite is particularly prized for its rich, deep hues.
Spiritual Properties:
Apatite is believed to enhance focus, clarity, and personal growth. It is associated with the throat chakra, aiding in communication and self-expression. In spiritual practices, apatite can help in deepening meditation, accessing higher states of consciousness, and manifesting one's intentions.
Combining Lord Ganesha and Apatite
Symbolic Integration:
A depiction of Lord Ganesha in the Ashirvad posture made from or paired with Brazilian apatite would combine the protective and blessing aspects of Ganesha with the spiritual and communicative properties of apatite.
Spiritual Benefits:
Such a representation could be particularly potent for those seeking not only material success and protection but also spiritual growth and clarity in communication.
This combination would serve as a powerful symbol of divine protection, wisdom, and the clarity needed to overcome obstacles and achieve success in both material and spiritual realms.
