Overview

Ganapati Homam for families in Nampally

Ganapati Homam is a Vedic fire offering dedicated to Lord Ganesha, the deity invoked first in almost every Hindu ceremony. Offerings of ghee, modak, durva grass, coconut and other samagri are made into the holy fire while the Pandit chants Ganapati mantras, often including verses from the Ganapati Atharvashirsha.

Nampally is one of the oldest parts of central Hyderabad, around the Hyderabad Deccan railway station, the Public Gardens and the exhibition grounds that host the annual Numaish each January and February.

वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।
निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥

Vakratuṇḍa mahākāya sūryakoṭi samaprabha, nirvighnaṁ kuru me deva sarvakāryeṣu sarvadā.

O Lord with the curved trunk and mighty form, radiant as a million suns, remove the obstacles from all my undertakings, always.Traditional Ganesha prayer
