|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||










My salutation to Lord Ganesha/Vinayaka, who holds the Modhakam/sweet pudding which provides immense pleasure to him and always work for the liberation of his passionate devotees, He is beautifully adorned in crescent moon, he is the protector of the Universe, he is the sole master to his devotees and eradicates their sins, He is the destroyer of the in-auspiciousness of his devotees whoever surrender to him. My salutation to Lord Ganesha/Vinayaka, who assumes dreadful form, which has the resemblance of Lord Aditya in the early hours of dawn to the arrogant, he is unblemished, venerated by deities and fervent devotees, he is the remover of in-auspiciousness of whoever surrender to him.  He is the Lord of deities/Sureshwara, He is the personification of wealth/ Nidhishwara, He is the Lord of Ganas/Ganeshwara who has elephant face/Gajeshwara.   He is the Lord of the Universe/Maheshwara, I shall reverentially surrender to Him. My salutation to Lord Ganesha/Vinayaka who is the provider of auspiciousness to the entire Universe, removes the demonic traits of His devotees, His huge body represents prosperity, showers boons to his devotees.  His marvelous face represents flawless nature of him.  He is compassionate, forgiving nature, showers prosperity and happiness to His devotees.  He is provider of eternal wisdom and intelligence to whoever venerates him. My salutation to Lord Ganesha/Vinayaka, who is the remover of sufferings and grief of his devotees, praised by the scriptures, He is the elder son of Lord Thripurari, slayer of demon Thripurasura and He crushes the pride of Suras and enemies, eradicates illusion from the mind of His devotees, he is the personification of all the auspiciousness who shower perpetual grace whoever venerates him as eulogized in scriptures.  My salutation to Lord Ganesha/Vinayaka, who is Ekadhantha, most desirable to his devotees, son of Lord Shiva, slayer of demon Anthaka,  His forms are incredible and infinite; it slices the obstacles of His ardent devotees.  He resides in the heart of Yogis, I shall reverentially venerate Ekadhantha.  My salutation to Lord Ganesha/Vinayaka, whoever recites the glorious verses of Ganesha Pancharathnam in the early hours of dawn with utmost devotion and dedication will be freed from illnesses and sins, blessed with appropriate spouse and virtuous offspring, long life and eternal wisdom.
