Black Obsidian Elephant with rising trunk

Buddha is said to have been conceived by entering his mother's side as a white elephant. Until today, sightings of white elephants are always regarded as a good luck omen according to the Buddhist. And according to Hindu mythology, the world is believed to be resting on the back of an elephant who stands on top of a tortoise. The Hindu God Lord Ganesh is depicted as an elephant. If you wish to display the precious elephant in your home as a symbol of good fortune, try placing a basket of precious things on its back since this denotes the elephant bringing these auspicious objects into the home.
