Brass Shri Ganesh statue image.,Nandana-Lord Shiva's son- showing affection to his father in the primordial form of the lingam. In ancient times Brahma and Vishnu, had an argument as to their supremacy. Brahma being the Creator declared himself to be more revered, while Vishnu, the Preserver, pronounced that he commanded more respect. Just then a colossal lingam, known as Jyotirlingam, blanketed in flames, appeared before them. Both Brahma and Vishnu were awestruck by its rapidly increasing size. They forgot their quarrel and decided to determine its size. Vishnu assuming the form of a boar went to the netherworld and Brahma as a swan flew to the skies. But both of them failed to accomplish the self- assumed tasks. Then, Shiva appeared out of the lingam and stated that he was the progenitor of them both and that henceforth he should be worshipped in his ancient phallic form, the lingam, and not in his anthropomorphic form.Ganesha's head signifies Atman the Highest Reality, while the body below the neck represents maya, the principle of phenomenal existence. The Atman's involvement with the world is characterised by the assumption of mind and speech. -.
