Ganesha is the deity that governs the Muladhara Chakra situated at the tip of the spinal cord. Any work, be it material or spiritual begins with bringing to mind the consciousness of Ganesha, who is the remover of obstacles in the path of meditation.
Here Tirumandiram, a Tamil classical text on Yoga, of nearly 3,040 verses written by the Saivaite saint Tirumoolar, begins by remembering Lord Ganesha with five arms, the face of an elephant, a tusk like the crescent moon. The Master invites the disciple to surrender his intellect to the divine feet of Lord Ganesha, the elder son of Lord Shiva and the spark of consciousness.
Surrendering the mind to a superior intellect is a way of calming the mind, making it free of distortions, allowing the truth to express in all its glory. - Swahilya Shambhavi.
