What the day is

The remover of obstacles, invited home for ten days and then given back to the water. The immersion is the teaching, not the arrival.

How to keep Ganesh Chaturthi

One act for the day

Begin the thing you have been putting off. And on the last day, let go of something you have been holding — the festival is built around a return.

The day is chosen by the moment the tradition reads its tithi at, and the times are that day's own, computed for this city. A festival-specific puja window is not printed: those rules differ by tradition and await a scholar's review.
