The word ‘Aarti’ is a distorted form of the Sanskrit word “Aratrika“, which means ‘reliever of distress. Hence ‘arati’ or ‘aarti’ is a ritual incorporated in deity worship which is the reliever of all the faults and distortion and completes the worship ritual. Ganesh Aarti Songs are played mainly for the atonement of faults and evoking the mercy of the lord.
Aarti is always done in front of the idol of God and involves showing light to the god, in the form of a diyaa. Whenever we do any religious ceremony, we sing aarti asking for mercy and forgiving our faults. Whenever we remember any deity, and sing bhajans, at the end of it, we perform the aarti.
