Rituals and Traditions of Ganesh Chaturthi 2025
The festival begins with the Pranapratishta ritual, where the idol of Lord Ganesha is infused with divine presence through sacred chants and offerings. Devotees then bathe the idol with sandalwood, kumkum, and pure water.
Offerings play a vital role—21 modaks (Lord Ganesha’s favorite sweet) and 21 durva grass blades are considered essential for the puja. Homes and pandals resonate with devotional songs, aarti chants, and the fragrance of incense, filling the atmosphere with spiritual energy.
After ten days of devotion, the festival concludes with Ganesh Visarjan, where idols are immersed in rivers, seas, or lakes. This ritual symbolizes the cycle of creation and dissolution, reminding devotees of life’s impermanence.
