Intelligence distinguishes gods and humans from animals. It gives them the discerning power and the ability to participate in God’s creation and participate in the order and regularity of the world. When intelligence is clouded by the impurities of delusion, ignorance, desires and attachments, one becomes deluded and bound to the cycle of births and deaths. When intelligence is perfected and purified through Yoga and self-transformation one attains perfection (siddhi) or supernatural powers of grasping, seeing, hearing, etc., which arise from the use of intelligence (buddhi) only.
Ganesha is portrayed in the scriptures as the lord of obstacles. It is mainly because he personifies intelligence, which plays a key role in our problem-solving skills and our ability to overcome problems and difficulties. Without intelligence, we will remain stuck in the cycle of births and deaths as we will not be able to discern our spiritual nature and achieve liberation.
Ganesha grants us success in our endeavors, and thereby peace and happiness. As the lord of intelligence, he is associated with two other deities namely Siddhi and Buddhi. Siddhi means perfection, success, attainment in yoga and supernatural powers. Buddhi means pure intelligence, which helps us find a way in darkness and distinguish things and dualities. Buddhi is responsible for Siddhi. Hence, Ganesha is rightly associated with both of them.!
