Translated   by

P.R.Ramachander

(Here is a great prayer addressed to Ganesa which occurs in Narada Pancharathram sent to me  by Sri.K.Muralidharan . I am extremely  thankful to him.)

Narada   Uvacha:-

1.Bho Ganesa  Sura sreshta, Lambodhara  Parathpara  ,

Heramba Mangalaramba , Gaja Vakthra  , trilochana.

Salutations to Ganesa  , the  great   deva  , who has big paunch  , who is dine among divines,

To  he who is close to Lord Shiva , He who is an auspicious  beginner ,

He who has   the head   of an elephant   and one with three   eyes.

2.Mukthidha, shubhadha , sreedha , Sreedhara smarane ratha,

Paramananda  Parama , Parvathi Nandana    Swayam.

He who gives salvation, He who gives good things, He who gives wealth,

He w ho is meditated   upon by Lord   Vishnu, He who is divine joy,

He who is divine    and the son of Goddess Parvathi.

3.SArvathra poojya, Sarvesa , Jagat poojya Mahamathe  ,

Jagatguro , Jagannatha , Jagadheesa  , Namosthuthe.

Salutations to he   who is  worshipped   by all, the god of all,

He who is worshipped  by universe, he who is greatly  intelligent ,

He who is teacher  of world  and  He who is Lord of the world.

4.Yath  poojyaa sarva paratho , Ya sthutha sarva   yoghibhi,

Ya poojitha Surendrai cha Muneendrai namamyaham.

I salute he who is worshipped   by the king of devas   ,

And the king of devas , He who is worshipped  in all places ,

And he     who is praised   by   all   Yogis.

5.Paramaradhenanaiva , Krishnasya Parathmana  ,

Punyakena vruthenaiva  yam prapa Parvathi sathi.

He who is worshipped    greatly by the divine God Krishna,

And the goddess Parvathi   attained him by blessed  deeds and penance.

6.THam namami sura sreshtam sarva sreshtam, garishtaka,

Jani   sreshtam varishtam  cha tham namami ganeswaram.

I salute   that  best of devas , the best among all and the most venerable  ,

I salute that  God Ganesa , who is the  best of  Jnanis  and the best among all .

Phala Sruthi

Ithyevam ukthwaa  DEvarshi thathraiva   Anthardhadhe   Vibhu,

Narada prayaou  seegram  easwaraa   abhyantharam mudhaa

When the sage  among devas told like this , the Lord   disappeared ,

Narada   also departed    speedily , with  happiness and god in his mind.

Idham Lambodharam stotram  Naradena kruthaam puraa,

Pooja kale paden nithyam  jayas thasya   pade  pade.

This prayer addressed to the God with big paunch  ,

Which was composed   by sage  Narada   at olden times,

If read   daily during worship , would  lead to gradual victory.

Sankalpitham padeth yo  hi varsham yekam  sasamyutha,

Visishta puthram labhathe param  Krishna parayanam.

After  determining   if this is read   daily for   a year,

He would get a great son who would be a divine devotee of Krishna.

Yasawinam  cha Vidwamsam  dhaninam chiranjeevinam,

Vighna naso bhaveth  thasya maheswaryam  yaso amalam.

Ihaiva  cha sukham bhakthyaa  anthe  yanthi harer  padam.

He would become famous, very learned ,  rich , with long life  ,

By the grace  of  Lord Ganesa he would have   great wealth  and spotless fame.

They would live with pleasure  and attain the feet of Lord Vishnu.

Ithi Sri Narada  pancharathre jnanamrutha sare  pradhaika  rather Ganapathi  stotram sampoornam.

Thus ends the prayer addressed to Ganesa   in the book , Narada   Pancharathra   in the first chapter.
