In Marathi homes, and during Ganeshotsav in particular, the aartis are sung in a set order. Ganpati comes first, then Shankar, then the Devi, then the family's own deity, and the session closes with Ghalin Lotangan and the mantra pushpanjali.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between an aarti and a stotra?
An aarti is sung while a lamp is waved before the deity, usually with a refrain after each verse, and it is short. A stotra is a hymn of praise that is read or chanted, often longer, and does not need a lamp.
Which aarti is sung first?
Sukhakarta Dukhaharta, the Ganpati aarti, is always sung first. Ganpati is worshipped before every other god, so his aarti opens the sequence.
Are these texts the same as in printed aarti books?
Yes, they follow the common printed versions. Small spelling differences exist between books and families, especially in the Marathi aartis, so you may see a word written slightly differently elsewhere.
Can I read these on my phone during puja?
Yes. Open any stotra and use the reading controls at the top to make the text larger or hide the meanings, so only the Devanagari verses show.
