The Role of God Idols in Navratri, Ganesh Chaturthi, and Janmashtami Rituals

by Ishan Kailani on August 20, 2025

Festivals in India are more than just celebrations, they are moments of devotion, gratitude, and connection with the divine. Whether it is the powerful Durga Murti during Navratri, the joyous Ganesha Statue for Ganesh Chaturthi, or the playful Krishna Idol on Janmashtami, god idols are at the heart of these sacred occasions. They are not just art pieces; they are embodiments of divine energy that sanctify our homes and hearts.

Durga Murti in Navratri: Invoking the Power of Shakti

Navratri is a nine-day festival dedicated to Goddess Durga, the supreme form of feminine power. Installing a beautifully crafted Durga Murti at home or in temples represents the victory of good over evil and fills the atmosphere with courage, positivity, and divine strength.

  • Spiritual Significance: Each day of Navratri worships a different form of Maa Durga, blessing devotees with wisdom, health, and prosperity.

  • Why Brass Durga Idols: Brass is considered pure and sattvic, ensuring the energy of Maa Durga radiates continuously during the festival.

Ganesha Statue in Ganesh Chaturthi: Welcoming the Remover of Obstacles

Ganesh Chaturthi marks the arrival of Lord Ganesha — the god of wisdom and prosperity. The installation of a Ganesha Statue is believed to remove obstacles from our lives and open doors to new beginnings.

  • Spiritual Significance: Bringing home Lord Ganesha symbolizes inviting success, peace, and auspiciousness.

  • Choosing the Idol: Traditionally, devotees prefer eco-friendly or metal idols as they are both sacred and sustainable, ensuring Lord Ganesha’s blessings stay in the home long after the festival.

Krishna Idol in Janmashtami: Celebrating Divine Love and Joy

Janmashtami, the birth anniversary of Lord Krishna, is celebrated with devotion, music, and joy. A Krishna Idol depicting baby Krishna (Laddu Gopal) or flute-playing Krishna transforms homes into Vrindavan — his sacred playground.

  • Spiritual Significance: Worshipping Lord Krishna on this day brings love, harmony, and divine protection to families.

  • Placing the Idol: Traditionally, the Krishna Idol is bathed in milk, dressed in fine clothes, and placed in a cradle, symbolizing the arrival of the divine child.

Why God Idols Are Central to These Festivals

  • They make devotion tangible: God idols allow us to focus our prayers and connect personally with the divine.

  • They energize our spaces: Brass and other sacred materials radiate positive vibrations throughout the festival.

  • They carry tradition forward: Handcrafted idols from skilled artisans preserve India’s timeless spiritual heritage.

At The Advitya, every Durga Murti, Ganesha Statue, and Krishna Idol is handcrafted with devotion and precision. Using pure brass and traditional techniques, our artisans transform sacred symbols into divine masterpieces, idols that don’t just decorate your home but sanctify it.
