Overview

Ganesh Puja for families in Tarnaka

Ganesh Puja is the worship of Lord Ganesha, honoured across Hindu traditions as Vighnaharta, the remover of obstacles, and Pratham Pujya, the one worshipped first. In almost every Vedic and Puranic ritual, a short Ganesh Pujan is performed at the very start, so that the ceremony that follows proceeds without hindrance.

Tarnaka lies in north-east Hyderabad, close to Osmania University and on the route between Secunderabad and Uppal. It is a well-established residential area with older colonies, apartment buildings and several research and educational institutions nearby.

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
