Ganesha or Ganapati is an extremely popular God in India. He is called Vighneshvara or
Vighnaharta, the Lord of and destroyer of obstacles. People mostly worship Him asking for
siddhi, success in undertakings, and buddhi, intelligence. He is worshipped before any
venture is started. He is also the God of education, knowledge and wisdom, literature,
and the fine arts.
This puuja is commonly performed on Ganesh Chaturthi day ie. 4th day of bright half of
moon in bhaadrapada month. Puja is done where possible at 1200hrs and morning 0600hrs
or earlier. Night puja is visarjana puja where lord is kept for one day ( unless you keep
the vigraha / idol for more than one day).

Previous Night, think of the Lord Ganesha and mentally decide to perform puujaa the next day.
This is the sankalpa. Next day early morning keep the same thoughts of worshipping the Lord
and take a head-bath (if possible an oil-bath). Have some soothing Indian Music (Shehnai or
sa.ntuur or sitaar or naadasvaram - preferably any instrumental) going on in the background
till the puujaa begins. The music should be pleasing (not too loud) for creating a serene mood.
(Of course people should be internally peaceful also!)
Wash Kalasha and fill it with clean water upto 3/4 of it. Cover and place it near the altar.
Observe Fast (if possible). Decorate the front door, altar and the place near the altar.
Invite your relatives, friends (who have bhakti in the Lord). Keep all the things for puujaa
ready, near the altar.
Duration - start to aaratii - 2 hours
