In Hindu tradition, it is often believed that anything that can be perceived by the senses can be controlled. With our five senses, we perceive the world around us. But celestial beings, in all the infinite senses, are able to perceive so much more. For instance, we see seven colours, but it is now known that light waves exist beyond the spectrum of what we can see with our eyes. Likewise, a God with his face turned towards the universe (Viswamukha) can see everything, and therefore has mastery over everything- every being and every atom in the universe. In this splendid arecanut creation, the artian gives form to this very idea.

Hindus across the world worship Lord Ganesha dearly, so much so that a ten day long festival is celebrated in India in the name of the Lord. Ganesh Chaturthi starts on the fourth day of Bhadrapada. Idols of Lord Ganesh are taken in a vibrant procession and installed in homes, offices and pandals. He is worshipped all ten days and various sweets and other savouries are offered to him. The festival ends with immersing the idol in lakes and rivers symbolising him going back to his mother. Lord Ganesha is worshipped with such devotion as he is known as the lord who grants wishes and boons. It is said that taking his name before starting anything auspicious will drive the obstacles in the path away. His artifacts are hence placed in every Hindu household. This portrait of Lord Ganesh carved on an Arecanut Leaf serves that purpose very well.

Meditation is nothing but the art of centering the mind. In today's times, it is definitely an art, seeing as so many distractions surround us each step of the way. This is why ancient ascetics recommended that we focus on one object, be it the 'aum' sound, our breath, a source of light or even an idol. As the remover of obstacles, Lord Ganesha is an important motif in meditation. Chanting his name offers a sense of peace, while also allowing us to maintain our meditative practice. As the Lord of meditation, he reigns supreme in this Arecanut Leaf painting. These delicate paintings are a testament to the artist's skill and patience in creating a masterpiece on seemingly everyday objects.

Lord Ganesha, as in this Arecanut Leaf portrait, is often sculpted and carved by many artisans for he is known as the god of auspiciousness. The tale has it that when Lord Vishnu's wedding was going on, Narada Muni on finding Ganesha alone approached him and told him that he is not invited as he ate a lot. Angered by this, Lord Ganesha ordered his pet mouse to dig a hole in the way of the procession. As planned, the wheels of chariots got stuck in that hole and it became impossible to get them out. The gods then sought help from a man who was passing by. He prayed to Lord Ganesha and was able to get the wheels out with ease. The gods realised their mistake and started worshipping Lord Ganesha as the remover of obstacles.
