|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||











Rishi speaks “ I shall meditate upon supreme Lord Ganesha who has no birth/Aja, he is beyond human intellect/Nirvikalpam, he has no specific form/Nirakaram, he doesnot requires any support system/self supported/Niralambam, he is the essence of Adhvaitha/unique, ultimate truth, he is eternal bliss/Chidhanandharoopam, he is supreme Lord, he is beyond gunas/properties, he is matchless, he is devoid of desires/nireeham, he is Parambhramam.  I shall meditate upon supreme Lord Ganesha who is incomparable, he is beyond description, he symbolizes Chidhanandham/eternal bliss, he is attainable through intense devotion and dedication, he is eulogized by Rishis and sages, he symbolizes sky, and he is the supreme Lord who is Parambhramam.  I shall meditate upon supreme Lord Ganesha who is the source of Universe and its living beings, he symbolizes supreme wisdom and knowledge, he is Ganesha/Lord of Ganas, he is Gunesha/who symbolizes virtues, he is supreme Lord who receives initial offerings/Suradhim/Lord of Lords, he is the provider of well being/Sukhadhim, he is all pervading, he is worshiped by the Universe, he is Lord of Lords, he is Prambhramam.  I shall prostrate before the  supreme Lord Ganesha who  symbolizes Parambhramam, he is devoid of passion, he is  source all fields of knowledge and Universe, he is  Bhramaroopam, he is the essence of Shruthi, he is attainable through intense devotion and dedication,  I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Ganesha who symbolizes Vishvam, he has various incarnations, he symbolizes supreme knowledge, he is ultimate truth, he is highly enthusiastic, he is the protector of deities from the demons, he is the protector of Universe and its living beings as well,  I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Ganesha who is Rudraroopam/essence of Rudra, he has three eyes, he is the source of Universe and protector of the same, he is the source of supreme wisdom and knowledge, he is the essence of all Agamashasthras, he enlightens the knowledge of various philosophies to his fervent devotees, I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Ganesha who  is the essence of Parambhrama, he is the symbol of Thrayivedha/Rig, Yajur,  and Sama, he eradicates Thamasic nature/darkness of ignorance in his worshiper, he imparts supreme wisdom to illustrious Rishis and Sages, he is devoid of desires and passions, he is  Ganesha who symbolizes Bhramaroopam,  I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Ganesha who is the Lord of Bhramins who sincerely follows Bhraminic rites/Dhvijesham, he has the luster of moon/Shashangasvaroopam, he is the protector from the harsh rays of sun, he spreads streams of nectar like bliss to deities, he symbolizes greatest medicines.  I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Ganesha who symbolizes supreme radiance/Prakashasvaroopam, air/Vayuroopam, passions, various art forms, he is Shakthisvaroopam and he is the cause and source of all actions, he is Shakthiroopam, I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Ganesha who receives initial salutation, he is all pervading,  he is the essence greatest philosophies, he  represents Universe and all deities, he is the source of Universe and its living beings, he represents Universe.  Whoever meditates upon the lotus feet of supreme Lord Ganesha would be freed the troubles and obstacles, like the worshiper under the rays and remain freed from all kinds all the troubles. Oh! Vishvambara/Lord who is embodied as Earth/protector of Earth, we are completely soaked in illusion, people who are surrendered at your lotus feet would be relieved from darkness of ignorance, hence kindly protect us.  Oh! Mahamune, Lord Ganesha would get highly pleased by the recitation of above sacred verses,  Oh! Lord  kindly provide us intense devotion at your lotus feet.”
