Sankatahara Chaturthi
The Chaturthi (fouth) day of the Krishna Paksha (waning phase of the
moon) each month is auspicious for the worship of Lord Ganesha. Sankata
means distress or obstacle and hara means to destroy. Worship of Lord
Ganesha by observing a fast and witnessing the abhishekam to the Lord in
the evening and taking darshan of the moon removes all sins and
obstacles in the path of the devotee.
