The time when we get into the new year, whether it is when the clock strikes 12 in the midnight or the first sunrise of the next year, is always very precious as we know we are never going to get that time back. Different people celebrate the first moments of 2019 differently. Some like to party and some silently view the first sunrise of the new year. However, in India, many people love celebrating the first day of the year with God's blessing and hence head towards the temple, first thing. The Siddhi Vinayak Mandir in Mumbai which is famous Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shri Ganesh saw an immense number of people turn up on the first break of dawn of the year. The Hindu Rituals believe that Lord Ganesha's blessings give the perfect holy beginning to every good thing you do in life and is considered very lucky. It is said that Lord Ganesha will fulfil all your dire wishes. So the first day of the year is the perfect time to seek blessings from Lord Ganesha.
