Summary

Description
English: Ganesha. Larger Shiva Temple, Gedong Songo III

The temple's east niche shelters Ganesha, Shiva's elephant-headed son. He sits with the soles of his feet pressed together; this is his typical asana in Indonesia, although nowhere else in Asia. His fan-shaped ears are also an Indonesian variant. In his crown he bears Shiva's crescent moon (Chandra), reinforcing his connection to his father.
