    Overview

    Ganesh Puja for families in Mahmoorganj

    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.

    Mahmoorganj is an established part of Varanasi with a mix of residential colonies, apartment buildings, hotels, hospitals and offices. It is close to Sigra and well connected to the rest of the city by road.

    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
