Dedicated incessant devotion toward the Almighty knows no rituals and a devotee can worship or place Deity's figure/statue in any form or anywhere. However, if we want to have worldly benefits then we are bound to follow the established rituals related to that particular God / Goddess's figure. In this regard, for Lord Ganesha - a bestower of peace, prosperity, knowledge & remover of all obstacles- it is believed that his two wives Riddhi (Prosperity) and Siddhi (Knowledge) always accompany Ganesha and poverty resides behind his back.

Here, We should understand that the term Prosperity is not confined to richness only but includes success/benefits/honors, in all spheres of life, which make one's life full of positive energy, a state of ecstasy. Likewise, the term Poverty does not mean the absence of money or richness only but the presence of all those negative circumstances where all endeavors prove futile and success becomes a matter of dream only. Life is full of struggle & miseries. Precisely we can logically conclude that Prosperity is nothing more than the physical transformation of positive energy and poverty is an accumulation of negative energy.
