As his mantras are chanted, offerings such as modaka (sweet dumplings), coconut, jaggery, sugarcane and ghee are given into the sacred fire. In South Indian homes it is traditionally performed at dawn before any new beginning. For this booking, a South Indian pandit matched to your family's tradition performs it for you. Your names and gotra are offered in the sankalp, the opening prayer that states for whom the homam is done.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy devotees book it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpening a shop, office or business with Ganesha's blessing, as a prayer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoving into a new home, around the griha pravesham or house-warming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA prayer for obstacles to clear before a big step, such as a new job\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThanksgiving to Ganesha when a new venture has made a good start\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen to book\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTradition places Ganapati Homam before any new venture, on Sankashti Chaturthi, on Ganesh Chaturthi, or at an auspicious muhurtham chosen for the family.
