Simple Ganesha Mantra for Obstacle Removal

The name Ganesha (गणेश) comes from the terms “Gana”, a group of semi-divine beings who form part of the retinue of Lord Shiva, and “isha”, which means “lord” or “master”. Ganesha was created by Goddess Parvati to guard her chamber while she bathed. When her husband Lord Shiva returned home, he was stopped by the boy Ganesha and a great misunderstanding occurred. Shiva became very angry and cut off Ganesha’s head. This made Parvati very upset, so Shiva restored the child’s life by placing upon him the head of a divine elephant. Shiva then declared him the lord of all the Ganas. Thus he became Ganesha, Lord of the Ganas, remover of obstacles and bestower of wisdom.

Ganesha is one of the most important deities worshipped to help one in the study of Jyotish (Vedic astrology), as he is considered the God of skills, intelligence, arts, sciences and calculative ability. Ganesha is also the deity who is worshipped before any other deity, thus his sadhana holds the key to success in all other sadhanas.

oṁ gaṇeśāya namaḥ

|| ॐ गणेशाय नमः ||
