In many States incidents of drowning during immersion of Shri Ganesh Idols on Anant Chaturdashi are being reported. In Maharashtra, UP and Haryana, 16 persons gone for the immersion have died.
Ruby Khan, a Muslim woman, ritually immersed an Idol of Shri Ganesh which was originally set up in her home on the occasion of Shri Ganesh Chaturthi.
The aim is that the performer of the puja should get endowed with Shri Ganapatitattva to the maximum. The concluding uttarpuja is the final step in augmenting the absorption of these waves. During the uttarpuja, all the pavitraks (Vibrations of Shri Ganapatitattva) leave the Idol at once.
According to the science of Spirituality, Chaitanya (Divine Consciousness) gets attracted to the Idol of Shri Ganapati in large quantities as a result of meticulously performing ritualistic worship of the Idol during the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi.
The attractive idol of Shri Ganesh in the form of Varad Vinayak installed by Sage Vasishtha at Kelzhar (Wardha District). Let us offer obeisance to Varad Vinayak the bestower of intellect, with a spiritual emotion of surrender !
O’ provider of intelligence, Shri Ganapati ! Provide me with a virtuous intellect. O Vighnaharta (Vanquisher of all obstacles) ! Remove all sufferings from my life !
If the letters are sattvik, they contain Chaitanya (Divine consciousness). Sanatan makes Name-strips with sattvik letters and a border matching the Deity’s Principle.
There are several types of Ganapati idols like the Saumyaganapati, Balganapati, Herambganapati, Lakshmiganapati, Haridraganapati, Uchchishtaganapati, Suryaganapati, Varadganapati, Dvibhujganapati, Dashbhujganapati, Nartanganapati, Uttishthitganapati, Ganapati with the trunk curved towards the right, etc.
Each Deity is a specific Principle. Greater the similarity of the Deity’s two-dimensional form (a picture) or three-dimensional form (an Idol) with the Deity’s original form, higher will be its ability to attract the Deity’s Principle.
