Preparation For Vinayaka Chavithi



Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated on the 4th day of the bright half of Bhadrapad. This festival marks the birthday of Lord Ganesh. Lord Ganesha or Ganpati is one of the most popular deities in the Hindu religion. It is worshipped by both Shaivites and Vaishnavites. Even Buddhists and Jains have faith for Ganpati. He is considered to be an avatar of both Shiva and Vishnu.

In couple of days, we have Vinayaka Chavithi ( September 03rd ) - Our Lord Ganesha's birthday. This festival is observed in the Hindu calendar month of Sarvadhaari, starting on the shukla chaturthi. On this auspicious day, here I provide few links for the pdfs and audio clips which can be handy for proper pooja vidhanam of our dear Lord Ganesha.

Part 2 : Katha*


Back in Hyderabad, we had Vinayaka Chaturdhi booklets which were so handy for performing pooja. But, those who are staying in other places and who don't have the booklets, these pdfs and audio clips are so much of convenience. Isn't it!!

This is my first entry for Ganesh Chaturdhi Event.

May the blessings of Lord Ganesha be with you in all your efforts always.

Happy Ganesh Chaturthi to all of you ..:D
