Indian Statue Ganesha Dhokra Bastar Eliminator Of Obstacles. Bearer Of Good Luck.

Ganesha is widely revered, more specifically, as the remover of obstacles and thought to bring good luck, the patron of arts and sciences; and the deva of intellect and wisdom. As the god of beginnings, he is honoured at the start of rites and ceremonies. Ganesha is also invoked as a patron of letters and learning during writing sessions.

Dhokra Art is a major attraction of Bastar. They are prepared by the Ghadawa community and hence it is also known as Ghadawa art. The Ghadawas are small artisan groups that produce brass or bell metal objects. The name Ghadawa is derived from the word ‘Ghalna', which means to melt, and as these people prepare the craft items by melting the metal using a lost-wax technique, so they are given the name ‘Ghadawa’. ‘Ghadawa’ means the act of shaping and creating, and it is probably this that gives the casters of objects, mainly brass and copper their name.
