Ganesh utsav

Ganesh Chaturthi is a time of joy, devotion, and togetherness. But as every festival must end, Ganpati Visarjan reminds us of life’s cycle — arrival and farewell, creation and dissolution. Many of us still remember the chants of “Ganpati Bappa Morya, Pudhchya Varshi Lavkar Ya”, the sound of dhols, and the bittersweet feeling of seeing Bappa leave for his heavenly abode. Today, while traditions remain strong, families are also choosing eco-friendly ways to bid farewell to Lord Ganesha with love and care for nature.

Ganesh Chaturthi is more than just a festival — it’s a season of devotion, family traditions, and the joy of bringing Bappa home. Many of us remember watching our parents or grandparents prepare for the puja with great care, from decorating the mandap to arranging sweets and flowers. Today, families are looking for ways to celebrate that are not only meaningful but also eco-conscious. One question comes up often: should you make a Ganesh idol at home, or bring home a ready eco-friendly murti? Let’s explore both options together.
