Ganesh Puja is one of the most widely performed and beloved Hindu rituals. Lord Ganesha is invoked at the start of every Puja because He is the Vighnaharta (remover of obstacles) and the symbol of intellect and auspiciousness. Performing this Puja ensures that any undertaking – whether personal or professional – proceeds smoothly and successfully.
The ceremony can be done before housewarming (Griha Pravesh), marriage, new business launch, vehicle purchase, or exam season for students.
