Elephant's Wisdom Includes:

* Strength
* Royalty
* Connection to ancient wisdom
* Removal of obstacles and barriers
* Confidence
* Patience
* Using education opportunities

An Elephant totem gives you ancient wisdom and power to draw upon. It embodies strength and power. Elephant people often have a very strong sex drive. Through the use of fragrances and incense, Elephant can guide you to new energies and power.

Elephant people show great affection to their families, caring for the young and the elderly.
They also have an inborn knowledge of roots and plants. An Elephant will give you insight into the power of the three feminine energies: child, mother and old wise woman (or crone).

The Hindu god Ganesh, god of overcoming obstacles, is associated with the Elephant.

Connection to GANESHA:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganesha

GANESHA Home Page:
http://www.compulink.co.uk/~ganesh/ganesha.htm

All Tantric and spiritual worship in the Hindu tradition begins with the invocation
of Ganesha. Acceptance of the strange looking elephant-headed deity as the
divine force stills the rational mind and it's doubts, forcing one to look beyond
outer appearances. Thus Ganesha creates the faith to remove all obstacles.

GANESHA MANTRA TEXT

AUM
GAJANANAM BHOOTGANADHISEVITAM
KAPITTHYA JAMBOO PHALCHARU BHAKSHANAM
UMASUTAM SHOKVINASHKARAKAM
NAMAMI VIGHNESHWAR PADPANKAJAM
AUM

Translation:

Elephant-faced, worshipped by the existing beings, of all living beings,
tasting the elephant apple (kaith) and jambolana (jamun),
the son of Uma, destroyer of grief,
I bow to the lotus feet of Ganesha who is Lord of all.
