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.
