Happy Ganesha Puja!

Today is the auspicious occasion of Ganesha Puja (or Ganesh Chaturthi or Vinayaka Chaturthi ), the Hindu festival is celebrated as the birthday of Lord Ganesha.

There are lots of things that somebody can only realize by actually participating in these kind of celebration when people extend their hands of togetherness which describe a single spiritual soul and you find the day like never been before ...

I clicked these pictures of Lord Ganesha while walking down CMH Road. This year I could spot there are more number of roadside temporary shops in and around Indiranagar who sell the Ganesha Idol for this festival season. It’s really amazing to see how these people put their effort preparing the idols.

Tonight there will be more processions and I am pretty much excited to visit all of the Pandals in and around my locality. I guess when the lights are ON, then its a different experience to see how beautifully these Pandals are decorated.

For now, you guys have a great time roaming around and treating yourself with whole lots of different sweets.

May god bless you!

Wish you all Happy Ganesha Chaturthi :)
