Thursday, 21 August 2025 () Ganesh Chaturthi lasts for 10 days because it represents completeness, divine presence, historical traditions, and spiritual growth. It is more than just a festival of joy and grandeur—it is a celebration of unity, cultural heritage, and the deeper connection between humans and the divine. As Lord Ganesha departs on the final day, devotees bid him farewell with the prayer: “Ganpati Bappa Morya, Pudhchya Varshi Lavkar Ya” (O Lord Ganesha, come again soon next year!).
