What is Ganesh Pooja?
Ganesh Pooja is the worship of Lord Ganesha, the remover of obstacles (Vighneshwara), done before any new beginning — moving into a home, opening a business, buying a vehicle, starting studies — and every year on Vinayaka Chavithi (Ganesh Chaturthi). It takes 1 to 1.5 hours with 1 pandit.
