About Ganesh Chaturthi Puja
Ganesh Chaturthi is one of the most joyous Hindu festivals celebrating the birthday of Lord Ganesha · the Vighnaharta (remover of obstacles) and the god of beginnings. In Bangalore, this festival brings together communities from all backgrounds. Gopuja offers complete Ganesh Chaturthi puja services: from idol installation (Prana Pratishtha) and daily archana to elaborate homam and the final Visarjan (immersion) on day 1, 5, 7, or 11.
When to perform it
Ganesh Chaturthi falls on the Shukla Chaturthi (4th day) of the Bhadrapada month (August–September). The celebration lasts 1 to 11 days depending on the family tradition.
The South Indian procedure
South Indian (especially Karnataka) tradition uses Gowri-Ganesha combination · Gowri Puja is performed the day before. Key offerings include modaka, durva grass, 21 types of leaves (Patri puja), and betel leaves. Ganesh idol made from clay is preferred.
This is the form our pandits follow by default in Jayalakshmipuram — Mysore families are overwhelmingly Kannada-tradition. Tell us if your family follows a different sampradaya and we will match a purohit accordingly.
