Ganesh Chaturthi 2024 What kind of idol of Lord Ganesha should not be brought home?
- One should avoid bringing a standing idol of Lord Ganesha home. Not only on Ganesh Chaturthi but also on normal days, a standing idol of Lord Ganesha should not be brought home.
- The reason behind this is that the idol in a straight posture is considered temporary. That is, the standing idol of any deity indicates a short stay in the house.
- It is said in the scriptures that the idol or picture of Lord Ganesha should always be brought home in a sitting posture because Ganesha Ji in a standing posture is inauspicious for the house.
- Ganesha is considered the god of wisdom. If his idol is installed in the house, it brings happiness and prosperity in the house and removes obstacles in life.
- In such a situation, if the idol of Lord Ganesha in a standing posture is brought home, it indicates that he will stay in the house for a short time, whereas the idol of Lord Ganesha in a sitting posture resides in the house forever.
