Ganeshotsav, a festival that was religiously followed by the Hindu community since ages....but only with a religious belief. It was until 1983, that Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak gave it a new perspective. It was his initiative to publicly celebrate this fest so that people of all communities can participate in it.... a great step towards strengthning untiy and national integration.

But what is the picture that we have now. How or who is really believing on the true motive of this fest. Are we losing the motie behind this fest. The answer can be Yes or No. we see a lot of Ganesh mandals who convey really nice and useful messages through their conceptual setups.

But are we, as a person or devotee, trying to understand that message..or do we just watch the idol the decoration and move out? It is here where we need to put in some thoughts. We need to nurture such pure occasions so as to keep intact the untiy and integration that our country is renowned for. Do not let any any impure thoughts dampen your mind.

Believe in the power of the unity and foresee this fest for its true motive.
