, Shr on the right: Such idols are called Siddhi Vinayak. To establish them, strict rules have to be followed and there should be no mistake in the worship. Therefore, it is not advisable to keep them in normal household life.
, On the left side: Statues with trunk on the left are called Left Ganpati. They are considered auspicious and welfare and it is easy to worship. They fulfill every wish of the devotees and bring happiness and prosperity in the house. Therefore, buying a trunk on the left side for the house is considered more auspicious.
Ganesh ji’s currency, Vehicles and Prasad
While purchasing the idol, also pay attention to the currency of Ganesha. The idol of the sitting Ganesha is considered a symbol of stability and peace, while the statue with steep posture reflects energy and activity. Therefore, the idol with a posture sitting for the house should be preferred. Apart from this, the idol must have the vehicle of the Lord Moushak and his beloved Prasad Modak. The statue of Ganesha is considered incomplete without a mouse.
