The celebration of Ganeshotsav is quickly approaching, and preparations have already begun. The date for this year is August 31, 2022. It is regarded as one of Lord Ganesha's most important festivals and is celebrated with pomp all over the nation.

Ganesh Pandals is held in many parts of the country.  Additionally, the worshippers privately place a Ganpati Pandal and bring Lord Ganesha's Clay Murtis into their homes.

Ganesh Chaturthi is a 10-day festival in which the sons of Mata Gauri and Lord Shiva reside at the home of their devotees on the earth. Fasting is observed in honor of Siddhi Vinayak. Ganesh Ji goes back to his people after ten days, and his idols are submerged in the Ganga. The festival is celebrated with a lot of fun and excitement, and aartis and hymns help to maintain a cheerful environment.

Every year, Ganesh Chaturthi/Vanya Chaturthi falls on the Chaturthi Tithi of Shukla Paksha of Bhadra Month. It is celebrated on August 31, 2022, and falls on a Wednesday this year. The Lord is the god of Wednesday, which makes it unique. Wednesday is a particular day for Ganesh worship, and this year's Ganesh Chaturthi falling on a Wednesday is a lucky coincidence.

Ganesh Mantra:

Shri Vakratunda Mahakaya Surya Koti Samprabha Nirvighnam Kuru Mein Dev Sarva-Karyeshu Sarvadaa.
