Some Hindu teachers insist that believing in rebirth is necessary for living an ethical life. Their concern is that if there is no fear of karmic repercussions in future lifetimes
Our temple priests, following the Ganapathy Agama tradition, lead the Abhishekam with powerful mantras such as the Ganapathi Atharvashirsha and Ganesha Ashtothram, ensuring devotees receive the divine vibrations of Lord Ganesha’s blessings.Sankadahara Chathurthi is revered as the most potent time to worship Lord Ganesha. The word “Sankata” means difficulties, and “Hara” means remover—thus, Lord Ganesha is invoked on this day to eliminate hardships in personal, professional, and spiritual life.
Scriptures describe that sincere prayers and fasting on this day, combined with participating in Ganesha Abhishekam, bring relief from karmic obstacles and pave the way for auspicious beginnings. Lord Ganesha, as Vighnaharta (the remover of obstacles), is believed to guide devotees towards success, prosperity, and wisdom.We wholeheartedly invite all devotees to participate in the Sankadahara Chathurthi – Ganesha Abhishekam at the Texas Murugan Temple on September 10, 2025, at 6:30 PM. May Lord Ganesha bless everyone with clarity, prosperity, and a life free of obstacles.
