Ganesh Chaturthi, also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi is celebrated every year on the 4th day of the first fortnight of Bhadrapada month as per Hindu calendar. As per the Western calendar, this typically falls in the month of August or September.
This festival is celebrated to honor the birthday of Lord Ganesh, the divine son of Lord Shiva and the Mother of the Universe, Parvati. Lord Ganesh is referred to by many different names including Ganapati, Vinayak, and Vighneshwar. His form is symbolized as a young man with the head of an elephant. According to a divine leela, Lord Shiva, not recognizing little Ganesh to be the creation of Mother Parvati and thus His son, slashed Ganesh’s head from his body. Upon incurring the wrath of Mother Parvati, the Lord replaced it with the head of a baby elephant and blessed Ganesh with many boons.
Lord Ganesha is, therefore, worshipped as the very first deity to whom all the prayers and rituals are first offered before beginning any major event. He is the Lord who dispels ignorance and removes the obstacles in the lives of devotees.
