Lord Ganesha is one of the most worshipped deities worldwide, and he is the son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. Religion does not stop people from worshipping him. Ganesha Chaturthi is almost the state festival of Maharashtra, with celebrations going on for weeks. Lord Ganesh is also known by his other names, such as Ganapathi, Vinayaka, Gajanana, Pillaiyar, etc.
About Ganapathi Homa
Ganapathi Homa or Gana homa, done in honor of Ganapathi, is a popular way of worshipping the Prathama poojita to seek his blessings in all the work to be carried out without any hindrances.
This homa is performed by invoking Lord Maha Ganapathi, followed by the chanting of Ganapathi Mantra and then performing the Ganapathi homa as per the shastras.
Significance of Ganapathi Homam
People perform Gana homa for various purposes, but the common reason is that everyone wishes to remove obstacles in the path of life. One should perform Gana homa –

- to attain material, spiritual, health, and well-being.
- before starting any ceremony to remove any obstacles
- to remove Ketu dosha, which impacts professional and personal life.
