Goodies
SEE MEMBERS
Gowri puja falls one day before Ganesha Chaturthi. Goddess Gowri who is the mother of Ganesha is welcomed home first and is worshipped. They say that prayers to Lord Ganesha are incomplete if prayers to Gowri are not offered first.
The Gowri clay idol measures a total height of 4 inches.
Annually, the nation comes alive in celebration of Lord Ganesha's birthday, a jubilant festival known as Ganesha Chaturthi. Elaborate decorations adorn Ganesha idols, intricate pandals spring to life, and fervent worship fills the air. However, amid the revelry, we often neglect the custodian of these festivities - Mother Nature herself. The Visarjan, where Ganesha idols are immersed in water bodies, often results in pollution, as idols crafted from Plaster of Paris and colored with chemical paints disintegrate into our lakes and rivers.
This year, let us honor tradition while embracing sustainability. Let's welcome Gowri and Ganesha crafted from pure clay, adorned with natural gemstone colors. After the Visarjan in your home, this divine presence will blossom into vibrant flowers and sacred herbs within a planter or flowerpot, gracing your home with eternal blessings, and nurturing our precious water bodies. It's time to celebrate Ganesha Chaturthi and Gowri Pooja in harmony with nature.
Bring home this beautiful organic hand-crafted Hoysala Style Gowri. The Gowri is made out of clay from riverbeds of three different rivers and the main features have been painted using natural gemstone colors. No chemicals or plastic of any sort have gone into the making of this Gowri.
After Visarjan, the clay from the Gowri can be dissolved into a flowerpot or planter mixed with some soil and manure. the seeds given are planted within. After Visarjan, the clay from your Gowri will nourish the seeds and will give you happy plants to cherish for the festival season.
Note : Images are for representation purposes only. As this is a handmade product there would be slight variations in terms of coloring using natural dyes, size variations, and finish quality.
Visarjan Instructions:
1. On visarjan day, place the Gowri in a container and pour water on the idol. The idol will dissolve in couple of hours.
2. Add cocopeat, and some red soil and manure.
3. Mix thoroughly above content, your potting mix is ready
4. Plant seeds. Water every other day.
6. Observe regularly and watch the plants grow.
Note:
*Please check if your planter/flowerpot has drain holes as water will flow off through the holes.
*Idol will not include seeds, since at the process of dissolving the Gowri, the seeds tend to settle at the bottom and do not germinate. You should add seeds after you have prepared the soil mix fully as above.
