Ganesh Navarathri from September 11th to 19th, 2026
Â
Ganesh Chaturthi celebrates the birthday of Lord Ganesha, the Hindu god of wisdom and success. It is also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi and can last up to 10 days during the Hindu Month of Bhadrapada.
Significance
- Remover of Obstacles: Honors Ganesha as Vighnaharta, who clears life paths and brings good fortune.
- Divine Symbolism: The elephant head represents wisdom, large ears signify attentive listening, and the mouse vehicle denotes humility.
Spiritual Meaning of Visarjan
- Return to the Divine: It marks Lord Ganesha’s journey back to his celestial home on Mount Kailash after visiting his devotees.
- Impermanence of Life: The dissolving clay idol reminds people that all physical forms are temporary and eventually return to the primal elements of nature.
- Taking Away Troubles: Devotees believe Ganesha takes away their obstacles, suffering, and negative energies as he departs, leaving behind blessings of wisdom and peace.
