Ganesh Chaturthi celebrates the birth of Ganesha on the fourth day of the waxing moon in Bhadrapada. Because Ganesha is held to have been born at midday, the date is fixed by which day’s *madhyahna* the tithi covers rather than by sunrise.
Clay images are installed at home and in public pandals for one to ten days, then carried in procession and immersed in water. Modak, Ganesha’s favoured sweet, is the offering.
