Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated by Hindus all over the world and it reminds the birth of Lord Ganesha. Ganesh Chaturthi or Ganesh Utsav was first celebrated by Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaja, the great Maratha ruler and since then it is being continued. Slowly and steadily this custom started fading out, soon freedom fighter Lokmanya Tilak brought back the old tradition in the form of a 10-day festival. It is said that Ganesha was born on the fourth day of Magh and especially during that time there is an interconnection between Ganesh and Chaturthi.

A clay model of Lord Ganesha is made before arrival of the festival and the idols are easily available in sizes from 3/4th of an inch to 25 feet tall. Lord Ganesha is always placed on high platforms and mantlepieces and nicely decorated for paying homage. On this day, devotees chant mantras and songs related to Ganesha and this ritual is termed to be ‘pranapratishhtha’. There are several ways of paying tribute and prasad or naivaidya in the form of coconut, jaggery and modak are offered to Lord Ganesha.

 Especially in Maharashtra The God who is believed to remove all hurdles . Lord Ganeshas special day is being prepared for with great enthusiasm by the devotees. Its a beautiful sight to see how artists are giving final touches to the idol of this deity and many are also following a specific theme of eco-friendly, green and with a recyclable message, this year. During this festival, beautifully crafted clay idols of Lord Ganesha are installed in homes or public pandals. The idol is worshiped for 10 days and even the sthapana ceremony is done with fanfare. The festival ends with the immersion of the idols on the eleventh day in a body of water. The idol is immersed traditionally with extensive song and dance and chants. Depending on tradition and commitment certain devotees follow immersion for a day and a half, three days, five days, or seven days.

On these 10 days, Lord Ganesha is worshipped and on the 11th day his procession is accompanied with dancing and then finally the idol is immersed in flowing water. Hope this year, Ganapati Bappa will bestow his wisdom, health and prosperity on every one of us. Happy Ganesh Chaturthi 2016 to everyone out there! ||Ganpati Bappa Morya
