Sri Kardhama Prajapathi speaks “ Oh! Vathsa/son, kindly narrates the
ways to attain Yogashanthi, Oh! Janardhana/enlightened one, whom should I
worship to attain the same.”
Sri Kapila speaks “ Oh! Mune, Meditation
upon the lotus feet of supreme Lord Ganesha is the principal method to attain
serenity/Shanthiyoga, he symbolizes
Yoga, he is absolute Bhramam, therefore he is most venerable, he is
primordial, he is worshiped by all, he is the essence of Universe and its
living beings, he is worshiped by
illustrious Rishis and Sages, he is primeval deity and continued to be in
existence until the deluge, hence the Shasthras approves initial veneration of supreme
Lord Ganesha, he is supreme Lord who receives initial oblation, his face
resembles to elephant, he is eulogized by Veda, he represents army of Ganas, he
is the leader of Ganas, he represents Universe, he has most attractive bodily
features, he is Lord of all class, his elephant head represents absolute
Bhramam, Oh! Mahamathe/Magnanimous one, I have described all that I have known
about supreme Lord Ganesha who has elephant face/Gajanana and he symbolizes sacred syllables of ‘Gakara’, he represents threefold, he is most excellent, he is absolute Bhramam, he symbolizes
auspiciousness, he represents five stages of consciousness and five sense of
objects, he is most desirable, he represents Mahabuddhi and Siddhi, he eradicates
worldly desires of the worshiper, therefore, it is highly appropriate to
meditate upon Lord Ganadheesha on regular basis, he is famously known as Chinthamani
who is wish fulfilling gem, he symbolizes Yoga, worship of Lord Ganesha would
provide inspiration in Yoga and peace of mind, Oh! Mahamune, worship of Lord
Ganesha with the recitation of Yekakshara hymns, will highly please him, and it
will provide Yogashanthi as well.”
