Ganesh Sloka
Lord Ganesha is the one of the most popular gods of the Hindu Religion.
Ganesh is known as the eradicator of obstacles and god of beginnings.
Lord Ganesha is considered as the first god to be worshipped. Slokas on
Lord Ganesha form the part of prayers offered to the lord. Here is a
collection of Ganesha Shlokas:
"Shuklaambara Dharam
Vishnum, Shashi Varnam Chatur Bhujam
Prasanna Vadanam Dhyaayet, Sarva Vighna Upashaanthaye"
Meaning: Lord Ganesha always dressed in white
represents purity. He is omnipresent with gray complexion like that of
ash glowing with spiritual splendor. The Lord with bright countenance
has four arms. I meditate on the God who can destroy all obstacles
whether material or spiritual.
"Vakratunda Mahakaaya,
Suryakoti Samaprabha
Nirvighnam Kuru Mey Deva, Sarva Kaaryeshu Sarvada"
Meaning: Lord Ganesha has a curved trunk with
a powerful body. He has the brilliance of a million suns. May the Lord,
remove all the problems from the actions I aim to achieve.
"Ekadantam Mahaakaayan,
Taptakaajnchanasannibhamh
Lambodaram Vishaalaaxam, Vandeaham Gananaayakamh"
Meaning: Obeisance to Lord Ganesha, the one
tusked, huge-bodied, big-bellied, and large-eyed God, whose complexion
is like that of molten gold. I surrender myself to such great lord.
"Srikantho Mathulo Yasya,
Jananee Sarva Mangalaa
Janakaha Sankaro Devaha, Tam Vande' Kunjaraananam"
Meaning: The lord, for whom Lord Vishnu is
the Uncle, whose mother is the divine auspicious one, Parvati and whose
father is Lord Shiva. I offer salutations to Sri Ganesha, the Omkara.
"Prasanna Vinaayakam Devam,
Perivana Pura Samsthitham
Sarva Vigna Haram Nithyam, Vandhe Sri Kunjaraananam"
Meaning: The Lord Sri Prasanna Vinaayaka, who
lives in his Temple of Pearland; one who removes all obstacles of all
his devotees at all times; one who has the Omkara face of the elephant.
I pray to the divine Ganesha.
"Agajaanana Padmaarkam,
Gajaananam Aharnisham
Anekadantham Bhaktaanaam, Ekadantam Upaasmahey"
Meaning: Lord Ganesha, the elephant faced is
like sun to the lotus face of Mother Parvati. The single tusked Ganesha
is the giver of boons. I salute the great lord to grant us a boon.
"Ganaanaam Twam Ganapathi
Gam Havaamahe
Kavim Kaveenaam Upamasra Vastamam
Jyeshta Raajam Brahmanaam Brahmanaspatha
Aanashrunvanna Oothibhi Seedha Saadanam"
Meaning: The Lord of spiritual faith, son of
Lord Shiva, is the wisest among the wise. Ganesha has no comparison. He
is the senior Lord of the Vedic mantras, who listens to the devotee's
prayers. I invite Lord Ganesha to visit my home with prosperous things
and be seated here.
