Guest guest Posted September 2, 2004 Report Share Posted September 2, 2004 Bhadrapad Ganesh Chaturthi is on 18.9.2004. I am posting this before time so that preperations may be done before hand. It is the Birthday of Ganesh ji. It is believed that Lord Ganesh is the remover of obstacles, sorrows & problems. HE brings in happiness in life. Worshiping Lord Ganesh & performing Atharvashirsha Aavartan (repetation) one can get his grace and protection. Ganesh Atharvashirsha Aavartan is performed on "Sankashti Chaturthi" which falls on the fourth day after the full moon day every month, but the importance to Bhadrapad Shukla Chaturthi is considered very auspicious being the Birthday of Ganesh ji. Though most effective worship is Atharvashirsha Sahastravartan (1000 times), or 108 or 21 Aavartan are also very common & beneficial. During Aavartan if possible perform abhisheka to Ganesh idol. After abhisheka, perform shodashopachar pooja (16 step pooja) of Lord Ganesh. If this is difficult to do, simple Ganesh Atharvashirsha Aavartan may be performed. Fasting during the day is also recommended. If one is unable to do this by his own self, any learned scholar can perform the poojan. During the Bhadrapad Chaturthi Tithi seeing the Moon is considered inauspicious. As such one must NOT seeing Moon on this day. Astrological Note: Worshipping Lord Ganesha is very beneficial in rectifying problems related to Ketu.
