In my last article I was talking about the main Buddhist tattoo symbols. An interesting compilation in which we analyzed different aspects of this religious cult that has a great acceptance within the world of tattoos. However, and if we have to add to the list of the most popular religious cults in this world, without a doubt we would have to talk about Hinduism. In this case, we will talk about one of its most popular deities. The ganesha tattoos.
Within Hinduism. Ganesha is the god of all men. Present in the vast majority of homes in India (whether rich or poor), it is one of its different most popular deities. It is a zoomorphic deity. Combine an elephant head with the body of a human. Besides being the god of all men, he is also defined as the lord of success and the destroyer of material as well as spiritual obstacles.
Moreover, Ganesha is also associated with commerce and scholarship. The most common is to find it represented next to a snake that is located around its neck, waist, ankles or hands. This aspect details the transformation of energies going up through all the chakras. In Hindu mythology, there are numerous stories about the origins of Ganesha. Among the most curious is that it was an infant who had a head wound that could kill him. The first animal to appear in its place was an elephant, so the infant killed it and seized its head.
Lastly, we will highlight that Ganesha is also noted for being a destroyer of pride, vanity and selfishness. Which we need to eliminate all human beings permanently. And you, Do you like Ganesha tattoos? Share your opinion with us.
