Maghi Ganesh Janmotsav

Since the year 2009, Shree Aniruddha Upasana  Foundation along with Bharatiya Bhasha Sangam and Shree Aniruddha’s House of Friends has been celebrating Maghi Ganesh Utsav on Shuddha (Shukla) Chaturthi in the month of Magh(a month in Hindu calendar). On the day of Maghi Ganesh Chaturthi, the-‘Shree Ganesh-PratishthaYaag’, a one-day ritual, as per the Vedic tradition is being organized, under the guidance of Sadguru Shree Aniruddha. ‘Lord Ganapati’  governs the  ‘Mooladhar Chakra’, one of the Saptchakras(seven chakras or power points)located in a human body.

Intake (Aahar), wandering (Vihar),  conduct (Aachar) and thought (Vichar). The significance and relation of the four objects to the four centres in Mooladhar Chakra is explained  below:

Utsav Events

To help attain man the success and yield overall progress in the material world,   Parvati Mata, following the command from Adimata Anasuya,  created the universe’s Ghanapran  as Her son. The in-detail story appears in the holy Granth, Matruvatsalyavindanam, written by Sadguru Shri Aniruddha. The day when the Ghanapran was brought to life  was the Magh Shuddha Chaturthi (fourth day of that month after new moon) day of the Magh month Hence, this day is celebrated as the Maghi Ganesh festival.
