Difference Between Vinayaka and Sankashti Chaturthi
Vinayaka Chaturthi, also known as Shuddha Chaturthi, occurs during the Shukla Paksha (waxing moon) of each month and is observed at midday, with the focus on the sun. In contrast, Sankashti Chaturthi, falling during the Krishna Paksha (waning moon), is observed after moonrise, with the emphasis on sighting the moon. This is the key difference between the two observances. Both Chaturthis are important for Ganesh Vrat, with two Chaturthis each month, totaling twenty-four occurrences in a year, each associated with a different incarnation of Lord Ganesha.
Vinayaka and Sankashti Chaturthi Vrat Method
On Sankashti Chaturthi, devotees observe a full-day fast and break it after sighting the moon in the evening. For Vinayaka Chaturthi, the fast is similar to an Ekadashi fast, with devotees fasting until the following day. If fasting is not feasible, worshipping Lord Ganesha and chanting mantras like "Om Siddhivinayakaya Namah" and "Om Ganapataye Namah" at least 108 times is encouraged. Additionally, reciting the Atharvashirsha, a hymn dedicated to Lord Ganesha, is considered highly beneficial. This hymn, when recited with devotion and clear pronunciation, is believed to bring divine blessings and stability, especially during challenging times.
