People usually worship the deities, Lord Ganesh and Goddess Lakshmi on the evening of Diwali. After the prayer is over, keep a lamp of pure ghee burning near the idols throughout the night.

On the next day, see the auspicious time and offer bhog to Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesh.

Then chant the immersion mantra and move the idols a little. You must chant the Visarjan Mantra at the correct time because it signifies that you have prayed to send the deities to their place.
