My experience with ganpati

This is our experience with Ganpati, seated gracefully against a backdrop of warm red walls and painted pink lotus blooms. Our Bappa wears a rich crimson dhoti with golden ornaments and floral garlands, resting on a throne flanked by two golden lions. Below on the decorated stage, a smaller Ganesha idol sits surrounded by brass oil lamps, fresh fruits, and colorful plates of puja offerings. This is how we welcomed Bappa and came together in devotion.
