Ganesh Murti- The Divinity Personified
Lord Ganesh is respected across the world, especially by the Indian community, as the benevolent God who guides our wisdom and bestows success in our life and business. That is why the Indian Hindu families worship him on a daily basis. You can easily find the Lord ganesh murti at their worship rooms, drawing rooms, and workplaces. There are many stories related to this benevolent lord of auspiciousness, prosperity, wisdom, and benevolence. Likewise, there are many stories related to Lord Ganesh that are interesting, educative, and full of moral virtues. That is why many Indian temples generally have at least one ganesh murti.
 Worshipping Lord Ganesh during Diwali
 During Diwali Lord Ganesh is worshipped along with Goddess Lakshmi- the goddess of wealth and Goddess Saraswati-who is the Goddess of language, creativity, wisdom, learning, purity, and arts. It is believed that worshipping these three divine personalities help people gain wealth, knowledge, and prosperity in their life. That is why Indians not only worship Lord ganesh murti at home during Diwali but also offer them special worship at their workplace to ensure positive growth.
 White colored for even better results
 It is believed that placing the White-colored Lord ganesh murti at home can bring even more positive results. It translates to more happiness, a higher volume of wealth, and sustainable prosperity among all members of the home. One thing to keep in mind is that the idol’s back should face your home's outside area and not the inner area. Marble is one of the whitest and luxurious materials that can be employed for crafting lifelike white statues of Lord Ganesha. You can easily buy statues online or offline. The excellent artwork, hours of hard work, and attention to the details by expert craftsmen offer a unique look to these statues.
 Right direction to place the idol
 While Northeast direction is considered the most auspicious part of any house to place ganesh murti, alternatively, you may also place it in either west or east directions. While worshipping the idol you should sit carefully so that you face either of the two directions- east or north.
 It is also advised not to place the god’s idol in the south direction as it is not considered to be an ideal place for such statues. Moreover, the walls that run aside your bathroom or toilet shouldn’t at all be used for placing or supporting Lord Ganesha's idol.
 Just like any other idol Lord ganesh murti should not be placed in the bedroom. AT all costs avoid keeping it in your bedroom but even if you must, then you can keep the same in the northeast direction of your bedroom. Moreover, make sure that you should never sleep or sit in such a way that your feet face God’s idol as it is considered disrespectful.
 When placing the Lord Ganesha idol, make sure that you place it respectfully on a platform that is suitably raised above the level of the surrounding area. It is also a good idea to keep a small silver bowl just in front of the Lord and offer daily Naviedya (offering to the Lord)- especially something sweet. Â
