Ganesha, also called Ganapati is the god of wisdom,prudence and salvation.
Ga means “knowledge”, na means “salvation” and isa and pati means “Lord”.
Ganesha is represented as a short, pot-bellied man with an elephant’s head with one tusk, four arms and yellow skin. In mythology elephant symbolises devotion, patience and truth.His corpulent figure conveys prosperity as represented by the laddoos he always shown with. Ganesha rides on a mouse showing the unity of the small with the big. All ceremonies, religious or secular begin with an invocation to Ganesha.
The puranas say that the fourth day of the month known as Chaturthi. Chaturthi is speacial to worship Ganesha because it is believed that Ganesha was born on the chaturthi of bright night of Bhadra(August-September). It is however considered unlucky to look at moon this night. It is said, once Ganesha was fell of from its rat and the moon laughed at him. This annoyed Ganesha and he cursed the moon saying that ill luck would befall on anyone who looked at the moon on that night.
In Maharastra Ganesh Chathurthi is worshipped more, for 10 days, and on the 10th day procession carrying Ganesh Idol accompanied by singing & dancing is immersed in water, which is known as Visarjana.
May Lord Ganesha give all good luck,prosperity & happiness to all.
