GSB Seva Mandal 72nd Shree Ganeshotsav 2026

 

Dear Devotees,

On behalf of G. S. B. Seva Mandal and Shree Ganeshotsav Celebrations Committee, we are honoured and privileged to welcome you to the 72^nd Shree Ganeshotsav Celebrations between 14th September 2026 and 18th September 2026 at Shree Sukriteendra Nagar, King's Circle, Mumbai. Lord Mahaganapati's Utsav has been celebrated with pomp and grandeur since 1955 with the guidance and divine blessings of our Dharma Gurus — His Holiness Shrimad Sudhindra Teertha Swamiji and our Mathadhipati Shrimad Samyamindra Teertha Swamiji of Shri Kashi Math Samsthan, Varanasi.

Seva Mandal's Shree Ganeshotsav is a unique spectacle aligned with sacred traditions with various Pooja's and Seva's offered to Lord Mahaganapati for His Blessings to devotees and community at large. The Lord's majestic idol, adorned with a unique tapestry of flowers and numerous golden and silver embellishments sits centrally amidst the grand pandal casting benevolent blessings to devotees. The celebrations conducted with the help of a dedicated volunteer force —united in faith and selfless service with reverence— draws devotees from across pan India and the World. For five days, Sukriteendra Nagar is transformed into a spiritual place that devotees throng to and is a beehive of activities inside and outside the pandal providing a traditional “temple fair (Teru)” atmosphere.

G. S. B. Seva Mandal, founded in 1951 is registered under the Bombay Public Trust Act, 1950 as a charitable, non-profit trust. The Mandal envisions ideals of “Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah, Sarve Santu Niramayah” — may all be happy, may all be healthy. Seva Mandal has continually undertaken initiatives that benefit society at large. The Mandal conducts various activities throughout the year.

Among its most ambitious projects is the construction of a 200-bed Multi-speciality Charitable Hospital at Versave, Mira-Bhayandar that aims to provide quality healthcare at affordable costs to the underprivileged. Seva Mandal's team has been working continuously towards regulatory approvals and remains committed to bringing this noble dream to life.

“Santushta Annadaan” initiative, launched during the Covid pandemic, serves 'Satvik' and nutritious, freshly prepared meals near public hospitals, orphanages, and economically challenged areas. Mandal's other core activities include educational assistance, medical aid, mass thread ceremonies (Samuhik Upanayana), knowledge camps (Dnyan Shibirs), blood donation drives, funeral services for its members and community at large. Seva Mandal also conducts career and welfare guidance programs for youth.

All these efforts have been hitherto possible only through your continued faith, contributions, and the divine grace of Lord Mahaganapati. Through this appeal, we once again seek your generous support and contributions toward the cause.

To make your spiritual offerings more accessible, devotees can now donate and book Poojas/Sevas online via our website (www.gsbsevamandal.org) or through our dedicated app available on the Play Store. As part of our Go Green initiative, we provide e-Receipts with QR codes to facilitate a smooth darshan experience and Prasadam distribution.

We invite you to be part of this sacred celebration. Let your prayers be offered at the lotus feet of Mahaganapati. May His blessings bring peace, health, and prosperity to your family and all of humanity.
