During the period, from Shri Ganesh Chaturthi (Bhadrapad Shukla Chaturthi) to Ananta Chaturdashi, Shri Ganesh energy emitted is in higher proportion. Similarly, on this day the Ganesh Principle emitted is also 10% more in the Universe.
For instance, if we are a devotee of Shri Ganapati, we should strive to obtain fundamental knowledge about Shri Ganapati from the theoretical as well as the practical aspects to generate and increase our bhav (Spiritual emotion) towards Him.
Importance of specific substances in the worship of Shri Ganapati
we will learn how we can benefit most spiritually from Shri Ganesh festival, how to take care of aspects that reduce the spiritual effectiveness of the festival.
It is a popular belief that an idol with the tip of the trunk pointing towards the right and left are called right-sided and left-sided idols respectively; however this is not the case.
How do Christians dare to limit the Almighty ? To declare that Jesus alone can save, is self-righteous & preposterous !
The shraddha rites are an excellent opportunity to fulfil these duties and repay our debts unto the ancestors.
Except on Chaturthi, Holy Basil is prohibited in the worship of Ganapati. Red flowers, Mandar (Coral) leaves, hibiscus, red lotuses, durva (Sacred grass) and shami (Mesquite) leaves are the favourites of Ganapati.
Durva, a sacred grass, has special significance in the ritualistic worship of Shri Ganapati.
Shri Ganesh is associated with the frequencies of Desire associated with the Absolute Earth (Pruthvi) and Ether (Apa) Elements. That is why ritualistic worship of Shri Ganesh is beneficial both for men and women.
