Yoga Ganapathi is one of the 32 forms of the Hindu deity Lord Ganesha, representing the meditative and disciplined aspects of yoga. Depicted in a yogic posture with his legs bound by a yoga-patta(meditation girdle), he holds a rosary, a noose, a sugar-cane stalk, and a yoga staff. Worshipping him is believed to provide protection from obstacles and help achieve spiritual enlightenment through yoga and meditation.
