When is Ganesh Chaturthi in 2014?

The date of Ganesh Chaturthi falls on the fourth day after the new moon in the Hindu month of Bhadrapada.

In 2014, Ganesh Chaturthi is on August 29 (Ananta Chaturdasi on September 8).

(O Lord Ganapati!)

You are (the Trinity)

Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesa.

You are Indra.

You are fire [Agni] and air [Vāyu].

You are the sun [Sūrya] and the moon [Chandrama].

You are Brahman.

You are (the three worlds)

 Bhuloka [earth],

Antariksha-loka [space],

and Swargaloka [heaven].

You are Om.

(That is to say, You are all this).

Ganesha

God of wisdom, knowledge and new beginnings

Attired in an orange dhoti, an elephant-headed man sits on a large lotus. His body is red in colour and he wears various golden necklaces and bracelets and a snake around his neck. On the three points of his crown, budding lotuses have been fixed. He holds in his two right hands the rosary (lower hand) and a cup filled with three modakas (round yellow sweets), a fourth modaka held by the curving trunk is just about to be tasted. In his two left hands, he holds a lotus above and an axe below, with its handle leaning against his shoulder.

Ganesha and also known as Ganapati and Vinayaka, is a widely worshipped deity in the Hindu pantheon.His image is found throughout India and Nepal.

Ganesha is often described as red in color.

Ganapati is visualized as blue during meditation in that form.
