Lord Ganesha is a God known to have a big belly, but Ekadanta Ganapati possesses a bigger belly, that is much larger than the ones found in any other form, which signifies that he holds the entire universe safely in his belly. 

Description :

Ekadanta Ganapati is a compassionate aspect of the Lord. As one who gave up one of his own tusks and hence, is appearing only with a single tusk, he is thus believed to be assuring his devotees of his selfless love for them and his readiness for any sacrifice for their sake. His devotees also believe that worshipping this form would get for them the Lord’s blessings, which shall help them in focused thinking, intense action, and surefire success.

An adorable statue of Lord Ganesh! Ganesh is seated with his legs spread slightly apart. His enormous belly prevents his feet from touching. His generous belly is said to hold the entire universe, hence one of Ganesha’s 108 names is Lambodara (large-bellied Lord). He has a snake coiled around his belly acting as a belt. The snake is one of Lord Shiva’s symbols. Shiva is Lord Ganesha’s father. According to a Hindu legend, once Lord Ganesha, while riding his vehicle the mouse, lost his balance and the modaks he had eaten fell out of His belly. He put the modaks back into His belly and tied it up securely with a snake. The base has Ganesha’s vehicle the rat on it.
