Procedure
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 puja is commonly performed on Ganesh Chaturthi day ie. 4th day of
bright half of moon in bhaadrapada month. Puja is done where possible at
morning (6AM or earlier) and at noon. The puja at night is visarjana puja
where lord is kept for one day ( unless the vigraha / idol is kept for more
than one day).
The previous night, one should think of the Lord Ganesha and mentally
decide to perform pujaa the next day. This is the sankalpa. On the day of the
Puja, keep the same thoughts of worshipping the Lord and take a head-bath
(if possible an oil-bath), early in the morning. 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. Decorate the front door, altar and the place near the altar.
Keep all the things for pujaa ready, near the altar.
Observe Fast (if possible). Invite ones relatives, friends (who have bhakti
in the Lord).
Duration - start to aaratii - 2 hours
Total duration - start to finish - 3 to 3.5 hours
