Description
The name Ganesha is a Sanskrit compound, joining the words gana meaning a group, multitude, or categorical system and isha , meaning lord or master.The word ga�a when associated with Ganesha is often taken to refer to the ga�as, a troop of semi-divine beings that form part of the retinue of Shiva .The term more generally means a category, class, community, association, or corporation.Some commentators interpret the name "Lord of the Ganas" to mean "Lord of Hosts" or "Lord of created categories", such as the elements.Ganapati , a synonym for Ganesha, is a compound composed of gaṇa, meaning "group", and pati, meaning "ruler" or "lord".The Amarakosha, an early Sanskrit lexicon, lists eight synonyms of Ganesha : Vinayaka, Vighnarta (equivalent to Vighnesha), Dvaim�tura (one who has two mothers),[Gaṇ�dhipa (equivalent to Ganapati and Ganesha), Ekadanta (one who has one tusk), Heramba, Lambodara (one who has a pot belly, or, literally, one who has a hanging belly), and Gajanana (IAST: gaj�nana); having the face of an elephant).
Vinayaka (Sanskrit: विनायक; IAST: vin�yaka) is a common name for Ganesha that appears in the Pur�ṇas and in Buddhist Tantras.This name is reflected in the naming of the eight famous Ganesha temples in Maharashtra known as the Ashtavinayak (aṣṭavin�yaka).The names Vighnesha (Sanskrit: विघ्नेश; IAST: vighne�a) and Vighneshvara (विघ्नेश्वर; vighne�vara) (Lord of Obstacles) refers to his primary function in Hindu theology as the master and remover of obstacles (vighna).
