O Deities! By ears may we hear what is auspicious; by eyes may we see what is auspicious; O Worshipped ones! With hale and hearty limbs may we live offering our praises (unto Thee). For the benefit of God may we live the entire span of life. May the ancient and famous Indra give blessings to us. May the all-knowing Sun give blessings to us. May the Lord of swift motion (Garuda), who removes our obstacles give blessings to us. May Brhaspati (Guru of deities) give blessings to us. Let there be peace, let there be peace, let there be peace. I speak the Truth (as determined by the scriptures). I speak the Truth (as directly experienced and verified by myself). You please protect me. Please protect the speaker, the listener, the donor and the supporter. Please protect the teacher and the disciple. Please protect me from all four directions (east, west, north and south). Please protect me from the above and below. Please protect me totally from all directions. You are beyond the three Gunas (qualities). You are beyond the three states of experience. You are beyond the three bodies. You are beyond the three periods of time. You are ever seated in the base (mūlādhāra). You are of the nature of the three-fold power. Yogis ever meditate on You. You are Brahmā, Visnu, Rudra, Indra, Fire, Air, Sun, Moon (divine deities). You are Brahman/Truth. You are the three worlds. ॥ गणेश मंत्र ॥ गणादिं पूर्वमुच्चार्य वर्णादिं तदनंतरम् ॥ अनुस्वारः परतरः ॥ अर्धेन्दुलसितम् ॥ तारेण ऋद्धम् ॥ एतत्तव मन...
