Shri Ganesh Puja

Diya, incense, flowers, modaka, turmeric, kumkum, clean cloth

Sit quietly before the murti or image of Shri Ganesha. Close your eyes. Visualize his form — the curved trunk, the single tusk, the large ears that listen to all prayers. Recite silently: ओं गणेशाय नमः (Om Ganeshaya Namah). Let the mind settle for 1–2 minutes before beginning.
