About this Venue

Vinayaka was created by goddess Parvati with the little turmeric paste from her body. Ganesh Chaturthi, or Vinayaka Chaturthi, is the birthday of Lord Ganesha, the God of wisdom, prosperity and auspiciousness. The Ganesh Chaturthi falls on fourth day of the waxing moon in the Hindu month of Bhadrapada (August - September). To Venerate his birthday and to get his blessings, every year in India, the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated with full of piety. Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated for ten days. In some parts of India, it is celebrated for one day on the Ganesh Chaturthi day also.

The idols of Gauri, the incarnation of Parvati, are brought usually two days after the outset of Ganesh Chaturthi. It is placed for three days – first day is the arrival (avahana), next day it is worship (Satyanarayan puja), and on the third day Gauri is immersed in water. Arrival of Goddess Gauri in homes is the herald of health, wealth, happiness and prosperity. Two idols of Goddess Gauri are brought home and adored. These two Gauri idols are regarded as sisters of Ganesha. In West Bengal, goddess Lakshmi and goddess Saraswati are sisters of Ganesha, and all three are the progenies of goddess Durga. In some places, Laxmi is invited along with Gauri. Some legends suggest that Laxmi and Sarsawati always stay with lord Ganesha in the form his two wives Riddhi and Siddhi. Goddess Laxmi is always worshipped associated with some other gods or goddesses. When no one is associated with Laxmi, then she comes with her twin elder sister Kulaxmi, the goddess of strife. That is what, alone Laxmi is not invited or worshiped. In this festival, Laxmi comes with Gauri.
