Elephants also hold a great significance in Hindu mythology. One, as the custom vehicle of Lord Indra who is considered as the god of heaven in the Hindu culture. And second, the elephant is believed to have offered his head to Lord Ganesha, who was once beheaded by his own angry father. Hence the elephant is not only celebrated but also respected and prayed by the Hindus
When Hindus worship the elephant, they symbolically worship these admirable qualities of the animal. Obedience, ability to not repeat past mistakes and respect and care towards peers. The elephant represents qualities of a good disciple in the Hindu culture. The big ears of an elephant are symbolic of how one should listen more than speak. When he needs to accomplish a certain task, physical pain, tiredness, hunger and thirst are no obstacles and elephants do not fear anything or anybody, and yet, they are extremely docile beings.
