Why do we say “Ganpati Bappa Morya”? 🌺

The name “Morya” honors Sant Morya Gosavi, a 14th–16th century Ganapatya saint whose devotion rooted Chinchwad (near Pune) as a living center of Ganesh bhakti. According to tradition, Lord Mayureshwar assured Morya that His grace would flow from Chinchwad to all devotees, and that people would remember the Lord along with His Bhakta hence the chant, “Ganpati Bappa Morya!”

Legends narrate that Morya discovered a Ganapati murti in a river after a divine vision, brough it to Chinchwad, and established worship that drew Sadhak from across Maharashtra.

After a lifetime of Seva, he took Sanjeevan Samadhi on the banks of Pavana; his Samadhi Temple remains a major Tirtha where the chant resounds in every Aarti and procession. The phrase we shout today is not just celebration it is gratitude to the devotee whose love made Ganapati’s name a household heartbeat.
