भगवान गणेश पूजा विधि

During Ganesh Puja, also known as Vinayaka Puja, Lord Ganesha is worshipped using all sixteen rituals and the chanting of Puranik Mantras. The practice of honoring the deities through all sixteen rites is called Shodashopachara Puja. Madhyahnakala is favored during Ganpati 2024 Puja, however Pratahkala, Madhyahnakala, and Sayankala can all be performed during Ganesh Puja. One may find out the Ganesha Puja Vidhi and Muhurat at Madhyahnakala Puja time.

The History of Ganesh Chaturthi

Ganesh Chaturthi is an ancient celebration that commemorates the birth of Lord Ganesh. Despite the Mughal restrictions, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj calls on people to unite and celebrate the festival. It served as a demonstration against the British government’s ban on Hindu social gatherings as well. Since then, there has been a lot of fervor and celebration surrounding Ganesh Chaturthi Pooja in households and communities. For 10 days, ganesh pandals are marked with lights and decorations, which create a joyful mood.

Guide to do Ganesh Pooja at Home

Make the house clean

The celebration necessitates an amazing family get-together, and every household starts with a thorough cleaning and making sure everything is ready. As Ganesha’s seat, decorate the pandal or altar, where the idol is kept for 10 days. To avoid a last-minute rush, clean your house three or four days in advance.

Sacred bath

be up early, take a bath, and be ready on the day that Ganesh arrives. Bring your family member over to pick up your Ganesh idol. A permanent idol that they frequently use at home is used by some people, or they make their own idols.

Set up the idol

Once you’ve brought the idol home, place it in its designated pandal, which often consists of a tall platform or altar. Spread a clean new cloth on the platform and draw rangoli around it. Set up the idol and adorn it with floral ornaments.
