News India Live, Digital Desk: Most of us will definitely find an idol or picture of Lord Ganesha at the main door of our house. It is believed that presence of Lord Ganesha at the door brings happiness and prosperity in the house and keeps all troubles away. Lord Ganesha is called the remover of obstacles.
But do you know that there are some special rules for installing the idol of Lord Ganesha on the door? Even if a mistake is made unknowingly, it can have adverse effects. This has been explained in great detail in Vastu Shastra.
Come, let us know today what things are very important to keep in mind while placing the idol of Lord Ganesha at the main entrance of the house.
1. Place the idol inside, not outside.
This is the most common mistake that people make. They place the idol outside the door. According to Vastu, the idol of Lord Ganesha should always be placed at the main door of the house, but inwards. This is because Lord Ganesha should face inside the house. This brings positive energy and happiness and prosperity in the house.
2. What to do if the back is visible?
Now the question arises that if the face of the idol is inside, then the back of Ganesh ji will be visible on the outside of the door. Seeing God’s back is not considered auspicious as it indicates poverty. There is a very easy solution to this. You install another similar idol of Lord Ganesha at the same place, outside the door. With this, the backs of both the idols will be connected to each other and the Vaastu defect will be eliminated.
3. How should the idol of Lord Ganesha be?
- Sitting posture: The idol of Lord Ganesha in a sitting posture is always considered the most auspicious for the home. It brings stability and peace to the home.
- Trunk on the left: Choose an idol in which Lord Ganesha’s trunk is bent towards the left. It is called left facing Ganapati. Such an idol is easy to worship and maintains positive energy in the house.
- Modak and Mushak: It is considered very auspicious to have Modak and vehicle Mushak in his hand in the idol.
4. Statue of this color is the best
Sindoori or saffron colored Ganesh idol is considered best for placing on the main door of the house. This color is very auspicious and brings happiness in the house.
5. Pay special attention to these things also
- Never place the idol of Lord Ganesha under the stairs or in a place where there is darkness.
- The idol should not be broken or broken at all. If so, replace it immediately.
- It is also not considered right to keep too many idols of Lord Ganesha in the house.
Next time whenever you choose a Ganesh idol for your home, keep these small but important things in mind. A properly placed idol can fill your home with happiness, peace and prosperity.
