Ganesh Chaturthi 2023
Ganesh Chaturthi is a Hindu festival that celebrates the birth of Lord Ganesha, the elephant-headed god of wisdom, prosperity, and good luck. It is one of the most important festivals in India and is celebrated with great enthusiasm across the country.
The festival typically lasts for ten days, during which time devotees install idols of Lord Ganesha in their homes and temples. The festival culminates with the immersion of the idols in rivers and lakes.
Ganesh Chaturthi has immense spiritual and cultural significance for Hindus. Lord Ganesha is believed to bless his devotees with wisdom, success, and good fortune. Devotees seek Lord Ganesha’s blessings before starting any work, exam, wedding, or new job.
