Ganeshotav is special for Ravi Rao from Tulsi Heights, Kamothe, Navi Mumbai, and his family.
'We are ardent devotees of Lord Ganpati since well over 45 years and wait for His arrival year after year.
'The Lord never fails to give us joy, love, happiness and His blessing lasts us throughout the year, year after year.'
'We have a pet named Chickoo and he too is excited when Bappa visits us each year. Throughout Bappa's stay, he spends most of his time under the table where Bappa is placed.
'At night, he will prostate himself in front of the Lord as if praying to Him and seeking His blessings.
'We are so happy to see this and are sure Chickoo is also the Lord's true friend and devotee.'
'Ganpati Bappa Morya. May the Lord share His blessings with all.'

'We wish all Rediff readers a happy and healthy year ahead!'
