Mantras of Lord Ganesh - The remover of Obstacles


Lord Ganesha Mantra and Prayer

Lord Ganesha , son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, is worshiped in Hindu Religion as the god of beginnings, knowledge, wisdom, intellect and remover of obstacles. One always starts any prayer, ritual or occasion by worshiping the Beloved Elephant God. Lord Ganesh blessings are also sought before starting any new venture. Lord Ganesha is also referred to as Ganapati, Gajanana, Vinayaka, Vighneshawar and Pillaiyar. Ganesh Mantras can be found in the Ganesh Puran /Ganapati Upanishad.
One of my favorite Prayers of Shri Ganesha is
"Vakratunda Mahaakaaya Suryakotee Sama Prabha
Nirvighnam kuru mey Deva
Sarva kaaryeshu Sarvadaa"
Meaning
O Lord Ganesha who has a large body, curved trunk and brightness of a million suns, please remove all obstacles in my work always.

"Aum sri kaala svaroopaaya Vidmahe
