Vinayaka Chavithi : Recently concluded festival

Thursday, September 17, 2009

Recently we have celebrated the ganesh festival, also called as Vinayaka Chavithi. It started on 23-Aug-2009 this year and and ended on 3-Sep-2009.
Vinayaka chavithi is celebrated across India with bhakthi and shraddha. Lord Ganesha is the son of Mother Parvathi and Lord Shiva.



This festival is the day on which Lord Ganesha is accepted as the head of all the Gods. On this day all the Indians bring in a idol of Vinayaka to their house and worship and take his blessings.

Vinayaka is called the Vighna nasaka...., means he is the remover of all the hurdles ..... so people pray to him when they start a new job/work.
