‘Ga’ symbolises intellect (buddhi), ‘Na’ stands for wisdom (vijnana). Ganapati is the master of intellect and wisdom. The universe is sustained by Ganas (gods) and Ganapati is their master. Lord Vinayaka symbolises the qualities of a true leader in all aspects.Viyate Nayake Iti Vinayaka, meaning, He is a master unto Himself. Ganapati is also called one who has a mouse as His vehicle(Mooshika Vahana). You may wonder how a small mouse can carry on its back a hefty personality like Vinayaka? Here mooshikadoes not mean a mere mouse. It symbolises the darkness of ignorance because a mouse moves about in darkness. Hence,Mooshika Vahana means the one who subdues ignorance and dispels darkness. Vinayaka is also called Vighneswara (remover of obstacles). No obstacle can come in the way of one who prays to Vinayaka. Thus, worship of Vinayaka confers success in spiritual as well as worldly endeavours.
