Sri Samkatanasana Ganesa Stotram From Narada Purana

Sri Narada uvaca:

1. Pranamya sirasa devan gauriputram vinayakam
bhaktavasam smaren nityam ayus kamartha siddhaye

2. Prathamam vakratundam ca ekadantam dvitiyakam
trtiyam Krsna pingaksam gajavaktram caturthakam

3. Lambodaram pancamam ca sastam vikatam eva ca
saptamam vighnarajam ca dhumravarnam tathastamam

4. Navamam phalacandram ca dasamam tu vinayakam
ekadasam ganapatim dvadasam tu gajananam

5. Dvadasaitani namani trisandhyam yah pathen narah
na ca vighnabhayam tasya sarvasiddhi karam param

6. Vidyarthi labhate vidyam dhanarthi labhate dhanam
putrarthi labhate putran moksarthi (moksama-apnuyat)*

7. Japet Ganapati stotram sadbhir masaih phalam labhet
samvatsarena siddhim ca labhate natra samsayah

8. Astabhyo brahmanebhyas ca likhitva yah samarpayet
tasya vidya bhavet sarva Ganesasya prasadatah

(*labhate gatim)

Sri Narada says:

1. With head bowed, let me unceasingly worship in my mind the god Vinayaka, the son of Gauri, the refuge of his devotees, for the complete attainment of longevity, amorous desires and wealth.

2. Firstly, as the one with the twisted trunk. Secondly, as the one with the single tusk. Thirdly, as the one with the fawn colored eyes. Fourthly, as the one with the elephants mouth,

3. Fifthly, as the pot-bellied one, Sixthly, as the monstrous one, Seventhly, as the king of obstacles, Eighthly, as the smoke colored one

4. Ninethly, as the moon crested one, Tenthly, as the remover of hindrances, Eleventhly, as the Lord of the hordes, Twelfthly, as the one with the elephants face.

5. Whosoever repeats these twelve names at dawn, noon and sunset, for him there is no fear of failure, nay, there is constant good fortune.

6. He who desires knowledge obtains knowledge. He who desires sons gets sons. He who desires salvation obtains the way.

7. Whosoever mutters the hymn to Ganapati reaches his aim in six months, and in a year reaches perfection, on this point there is no doubt.

8. Whosoever makes eight copies of it, and has them distributed to as many brahmans, he reaches knowledge instantaneously, by the grace of Ganesh.
