Ganesha is the first sound, OM, in which all hymns were born. When Shakti (Energy / Matter) and Shiva (Being / Consciousness) meet, both Sound (Ganesha) and Light (Skanda) were born. He represents the perfect equilibrium between force and kindness and between power and beauty. He also symbolizes the discriminative capacities which provide the ability to perceive distinctions between truth and illusion, the real and the unreal.3

Ganesha himself is understood to be the placer and the remover of obstacles and is associated with the intriguing concept of a productive obstacle—the notion of deflection for a productive purpose. In Dogon culture the action of the spiral of the po pilu (angular inertia) is compared to that of a sieve, which is utilized by the Dogon as a productive obstacle to separate beans from sand, in which they have been placed as a way to preserve them. In one Hindu myth, Ganesha is portrayed as repeatedly deflecting his mother Parvati’s arrows. One possible implication of the myth is that the influence of certain of the seven vectored rays of the po pilu may be deflected from direct material expression by the dynamics of angular inertia.
