Answers to common questions about the mission and how to take part.
It is a global spiritual mission of the 90MillionSmiles Foundation to gather one crore (ten million) prayers from one crore devotees for world peace, family unity, and the removal of obstacles. Lord Ganapati's divine presence travels across all seven continents as part of the journey.
The Sahasra Parayana is the collective recitation at the heart of World Tour 2. In each city, sacred couples gather — 108 at a time, building toward 1008 — to chant together for global harmony.
Everyone is welcome. Families, couples, and individuals can all take part. Devotees join the gatherings as they travel city to city, and many also chant at home, adding their recitations to the growing count.
Devotees chant the sacred mantra together. Children present perform three pradakshinas around their parents, following Lord Ganapati's own example; where children are not present, devotees invoke the blessings of their mother and father through remembrance.
One crore (10 million) recitations form the foundation of the mission — a threshold where individual prayer becomes collective power. The aspiration then rises toward 10 crore and 100 crore, as a blessing for all generations.
On September 4, 2027, Ganesh Chaturthi will be celebrated at the Arctic Ocean — the North Pole — for the first time in recorded history. It is the grand culmination of the world tour.
