It is celebrated to worship, honour and respect the Lord Ganesha. God Ganesha is the lovely son of the Goddess Parvati and God Shiva. The legend of Ganesha Chaturthi festival is Lord Ganesh. In the ancient time, once Lord Shiva had gone for his Samadhi in the mountains of Himalayas.<\/p>\n<p>Goddess Parvati was alone and thought to create a strong son in the absence of Shiva on the Kailash. She had decided and created Lord Ganesha through the sandalwood paste (which she was used of taking bath) and then breathed a life into that statue. She had given a task to her great son, Ganesh. She said to Ganesh that, be here at the door and do not allow anyone to enter the door till I order you. She was taking bath inside under the guard of her son.<\/p>\n<p>Soon, Lord Shiva came from his Samadhi and faced a new boy on the Kailash as he was not aware that Ganesh was his own son. Shiva started going inside and then prevented by the Ganesha to enter to the room. He said that Mata is taking bath and you can enter inside only when she gives me order. Lord Shiva requested a lot but he did not allowed by son. Soon, all the deities and Goddesses gathered and requested to Ganesha for the same. They told Ganesha that Lord Shiva is your father and allow him as he has right to meet your Mata. But Ganesh denied and said that I respect my father but what I can do, I have given a strict order from my mother to stop everyone to enter the door.<\/p>\n<p>Lord Shiva became very angry, and then other God and Goddess requested him to go from here and let us try once. The followers of Shiva (Ganas, Vishnu, Brahma, Indra, Narada, Saptarishis, etc) started teaching manners to the child. Indra became very angry and attacked on the child with his all power however Ganesha was very much powerful as he was embodiment of the Shakti. Ganesha defeated everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Lord Shiva came again as it was the matter of pride for Shiva. He became angry and cut off the head of Ganesha by his trident. Soon, Mata Parvati came and became very angry by seeing that event. She started weeping by keeping the head and body of Ganesh in her lap. She said that I need my child again on any condition otherwise I would destroy the whole universe.<\/p>\n<p>All the God and Goddess started fearing of the decision of Mata Parvati. They prayed to God Shiva to do something. Shiva said that it is impossible to join the same head but we can add head of other one to the body of Ganesha. He ordered to his followers Ganas, to go for search the head. He said that bring the head of anyone who is founded sleeping, facing to the north direction and just opposite to his\/her child.<\/p>\n<p>Ganas started for searching the head in the whole universe by following the same conditions told by Shiva. Finally, they found a sleeping elephant in the north direction opposite to the child. They cut off the head of that elephant and brought to the Kailash. Lord Shiva added that head to the body of Ganesha. In this way Ganesha got his life back.<\/p>\n<p>Mata Parvati said that her son looks like an elephant so everyone would make fun of him, nobody would respect him. Then, Lord Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma, Indra, Ganas and all Goddesses had blessed Ganesha with lots of blessings, power, Ashtra, Shastra, etc. They told that nobody would make fun of Ganesha instead Ganesha would be worshipped by everyone before starting any new work. Ganesha would be given first priority in any puja by everyone. People who would worship Ganesha first of all would really be blessed with wisdom and Lakshmi. Mata Lakshmi said that from this day, Ganesha would sit in my lap and people would worship Ganesha with me to get wisdom and Dhan.<\/p>\n<p>Lord Shiva declared that, this boy would be called Ganesha (Gana+Isha means Lord of Ganas). So, Ganesha is the God of all God. Lord Ganesha is a Vighnakartaa means obstacle-creator for the devils and Vighnahartaa means obstacle-remover for his devotees and Devas to bless them for their hard work.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"History_and_Origin_of_Ganesh_Chaturthi_Festival\"><\/span>History and Origin of Ganesh Chaturthi Festival<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The exact date of starting of puja on the Ganesha Chaturthi festival is not known by anyone however, according to the history it has been estimated that Ganesh Chaturthi was getting celebrated as a public event in the Pune during the time of Shivaji (founder of the Maratha Empire) during 1630 to 1680.

There is a ritual of offering Modak to the Ganesha in 21 numbers.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Puja_Process_Rituals_and_Significance_of_Ganesh_Chaturthi\"><\/span>Puja Process, Rituals and Significance of Ganesh Chaturthi<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The puja process and rituals differs slightly according to the regions and traditions all over the India. People start making the clay statue of Lord Ganesha in different sizes 2-3 months before the date of Ganesh Chaturthi. People keep one statue on any raised platforms in home or outside the home in a decorated tent in large space so that neighbours may view and stand for puja. People do all the preparations by their own or call any nearest priest of the temple.<\/p>\n<p>Some people do meditation in the early morning during Brahmamuhurta all days. Devotees take baht and go to temple or worship at home. They do prayer and offer Prasad with complete faith and devotion. People belief that at this day, we should not see the moon and keep distance from people unbelieving in God.<\/p>\n<p>People performing puja especially wear red silk dhoti and shawl. Priest chants mantras in order to call God into the idol. This Hindu ritual is called as pranapratishhtha means idol installation. This ritual is followed by another ritual called as shhodashopachara means use of 16 ways to pay tribute to the Ganesha. People offer coconut, 21 modak, 21 durva grass, red flowers, sweets, jaggery, dhoop batti, garland, etc. First of all, people apply mixture of kumkum and sandalwood paste to the statue, do offerings and chant Vedic hymns, Ganapati Atharva Shirsha, Ganesha stotra and devotional songs all through the puja days.<\/p>\n<p>Ganesh puja starts from Bhadrapad Shudh Chaturthi and ends on Ananta Chaturdashi. On 11<sup>th<\/sup> day Ganesh Visarjan takes place through a procession on the street with dancing and singing. Procession starts with saying \u201cGanpati Bapa Moriya, Gheema ladu choriya, Pudcha varsi laukariya, Bapa Moriya re, Bapa Moriya re\u201d means people pray to God that come again next year. People pray to God for their wellness and prosperity for whole year while immersing the idol into water. Devotees offer flowers, garland, coconuts, camphor, and sweets during the Visarjan.<\/p>\n<p>People offer Modak to God to make him happier as Ganesha loves Modak too much. It is believed that praying with full devotion at this day gives inner spiritual strength, prosperity, remove all obstacles, success including all the wishes. It is believed that the first person who kept fast on the Ganesh Chaturthi was Chandra (moon). Once, Ganesh was traveling through the heaven and met to Chandra. He was very pride for his beautifulness and laughed on Ganesha for his odd shape. Then he was cursed by Ganesh. Moon was very upset and requested to Ganesha for forgiveness. Finally, Lord Ganesh told him to keep fast on Ganesh Chaturthi with full devotion to get free from curse.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Vayu Puran, one can get relief from false accusation if he\/she keeps fast by listening the episode of Shri Krishna. People also add some herbal and medicated plant leaves in the water while idol Visarjan in the belief of purifying the water. Some drink lake water especially on this day to get protected from the infections and viral diseases. People worship eight embodiments of the Lord Ganesha (means Ashtavinayaka) especially on Ganesh Chaturthi in order to remove all the negative energy and evil power from body and surroundings. It is believed that breaking coconuts on the earth on Ganesh Chaturthi ensures success by absorbing all negative energy from atmosphere.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ganesha_Visarjan_Dates_2024\"><\/span>Ganesha Visarjan Dates 2024<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Ganesh Visarjan is the immersion of Ganesh idol into the water on 11<sup>th<\/sup> day of Ganesha Chaturthi festival.
