Ganesh Chaturthi is the happiest day for all of us as it is the Birth Anniversary of Lord Sri. Ganesh, the God of Wisdom, Prosperity, Good Fortune & Natural Healer.

Birth Anniversary of Lord Ganesh is celebrated worldwide for 10days starting from Chaturthi to Anantha Chaturdashi. Lord Sri Ganesh is popularly known with different names with relation to the qualities of Lord Ganesha - Vinayaka, Vignesha, Vakratunda, Gajanana, Lambodara, Vighna Hartha.

Lord Ganesha is worshipped as the god of new beginnings & remover of obstacles. He is primarily worshipped at the beginning of every vratham, pooja & festive occasions. He is the root god of Mooladhara Chakra - which resides at the tail bone (base of the spine). 

Ancient Ayurvedic Scholars popularised Ayurveda medicines blending 21 leaves from which Lord Ganesha is worshipped. 21 leaves play major role in day to day ayurveda practices too. The leaves such as Bhringraj – stimulates Hair Growth;  Tulasi boosts immunity & cures fibro-adenoma  of breasts ;  Datura, Vachi, Arka have anti-inflammatory properties, Shami leaf is used in Ayurvedic Therapies, Bilva Leaf cures Diabetics.
