Ganesh Visarjan 2024: How to perform Ganpati Visarjan at home; Puja vidhi and rituals
According to tradition, Ganpati Bappa is immersed in a river, pond, or lake. However, if you care for the environment or don't have a water body near your house, you can perform Ganpati Visarjan at home, keeping all the rituals in mind. While popularly, Ganesh Visarjan is done on the last day of the ten-day festival, devotees sometimes do it after one and a half days, third day, fifth day or seventh day.
Coming to the rituals, when performing Ganpati Visarjan at home, devotees should gather with their family members to do Ganesh Puja. During this, offer modak, laddu, and fruits to Ganpati Bappa. Additionally, prepare 56 bhogs (chappan bhog) to the Lord. After puja, perform aarti of Ganpati Bappa's idol.
