Ganesh Chaturthi festival is incomplete without Modak, know why Lord Ganesha loves this sweet

Ganesh Chaturthi (Ganesh Chaturthi 2024) is a widely celebrated festival across the country. The joy festival lasts ten days. This year's festival will take place from September 7th to 17th. People celebrate the Ganpati Bappa festival in a variety of ways, but without his favorite bhog, it is considered FIFA. Although Lord Ganesha enjoys a variety of sweet dishes, Modak (Ganesh Chaturthi Modak) is his favorite bhog. This is why 'Modak' is undoubtedly offered to him during Ganeshotsav.

This festival is considered incomplete without 'Modak' and hence people offer different types of Modak to the Lord, but do you know what is the connection between Ganesh Chaturthi and Modak and why this sweet is so dear to Bappa (Lord Ganesha's Favorite Dessert). If not, then let us tell you the connection between Ganpati Bappa and Modak in this article-

According to mythological belief, once Lord Shiva, Goddess Parvati, and Lord Ganesha went to the house of Rishi Atri's wife Devi Anusuya in the forest. As soon as they reached here, Lord Shiva and Ganesha started feeling hungry, after which they arranged food for everyone. After eating food, the hunger of Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva was satiated, but Ganpati Bappa's stomach was not filled with anything. To satisfy Bappa's hunger, Anusuya fed him all kinds of dishes, but his hunger was not satiated.
