History

Goddess Parvati went through severe penance in the cave at the Lenyadri mountain to become the mother of Ganesh. Pleased by her penance Gajanan blessed her and promised that He would take birth as her son.On the Chaturthi, fourth day of Bhadrapad Shukla fortnight Parvati created an idol from the dirt wiped from her body. In this idol entered Gajanan. He stood before as her a little boy, who had six arms and three eyes. This boy was called Ganesh, the one who has conquered all the senses.
It is believed that Ganesh resided in Lenyadri for fifteen years.
