Vishnu Samhita (ch 29, v 55-7) an ancient ritual text, persuasively endorses the use of imagery and puts it:
"Without a form how can God be mediated upon? If (He is) without any form, where will the mind fix itself? When there is nothing for the mind to attach itself to, it will slip away from meditation or will glide into a state of slumber. Therefore, the wise will meditate on some form, remembering, however, that the form is a superimposition and not a reality."
Global Hindu Heritage Foundation/www.savetemples.org and JD Foundation have prepared 3000 Ganesh Murthies. we are planning to distribute these environmentally friendly Tulasi seeded Ganesh idols freely to the public. This Murthy will have Tulasi seeds within to ensure they will keep them in their houses.  After pooja instead of nimarjjanam in a river or sea, we request the people who received the Murthy to keep it in a pot and pour some water so that Tulasi seeds will sprout into a full-blown plant which has its own significance apart from the religious aspect. The importance of the Tulasi plant is described in great detail in our Hindu scriptures. This way Ganesha and Tulasi plants will be at your home and the environment will not be polluted.
            GHHF and JGF are also freely distributing Kashayam, an herbal immunity booster along with so that you will be safeguarded from this pandemic. Everybody is invited to come and pick one from Pinnamaneni's banquet halls, Gopalpatnam, Visakhapatnam. We welcome everybody to register if you are willing to volunteer in any activities we organize for the welfare of humanity.
Lord Ganesh
Lord Ganesha, popularly known and easily recognized as the Elephant-God, is one of the most important deities of the Hindu Patheon. Before every undertaking, be it laying of the foundation of a house, or opening of a store or beginning any other work, Lord Ganesh is first worshipped so at to invoke his blessings. 
Ganesha has many names. The main ones are Ganapati (lord of the ganas, or attendants), Vighneshwara (controller of all obstacles), Vinayaka (the prominent leader), Gajaanana (elephant-faced), Lambodara (pendant-bellied), and Ekdanta (having one tusk). 
Ganesha is described as an elephant God who represents the power of the Supreme Being that removes obstacles and ensures success in human endeavors. Hindu scriptures recommend the worshipping of Ganesha before the beginning of any religious, spiritual, or worldly activity.  Many students go to the Temple before they commence their studies. Business people go and seek his blessings to remove all impediments. Spiritual people worship seeking the wisdom needed to grow spiritually.
