Ganesha murti or vigraha (idol) can be brought to home during any time of the year but on a specific date. So, which is the best time to bring Ganesha home?
The best time to bring Ganesha home is on Tuesday, Chaturthi tithis in a month and during Ganesh Chaturthi. The time should be Pradosh Kaal – 1.5 hours before sunset.
You can also bring Ganesha home when there is Swathi Nakshatra present.
Another good time to bring Ganesha home is from 12:00 PM to 12:40 PM on all days of the week except Wednesdays.
Always bring permanent Ganesha home made using metal or clay.
The murti brought during the annual Ganesh Chaturthi festival should be made of clay.
