Ganesha Ashtottara is a revered Hindu practice that involves reciting a list of 108 divine names of Lord Ganesha. Each name signifies a unique attribute or aspect of the elephant-headed deity. Devotees chant these names as a form of devotion, seeking blessings and guidance from Lord Ganesha, who is believed to be the remover of obstacles and the harbinger of success and prosperity. This sacred recitation is often performed during Ganesha worship rituals, and it is a way to connect with the divine presence of Lord Ganesha.
Hindu scriptures have unveiled numerous methods of worshiping Lord Ganesha, one of which is the Ganesha Ashtottara. This sacred practice involves offering items such as Durva grass, flowers, sindoor (vermilion), ghee, lamps, and modak (a sweet delicacy) to Lord Ganesha during the worship ceremony. These offerings symbolize devotion and seek his divine grace and guidance.
