After Describing the Characteristics & Cosmic Attributes Of Lord Ganesha, Atharvan Rishi Gives us the Sacred “GANESH VIDYA” i.e. the Mantra which Reveals the Sacred Form of Lord Ganesh. The Letter “GA” is to be enunciated, following by “NA” This one word Mantra is then Potentiated with the “PRANAVA” “OM”. This is Sacred Mantra.
“GA” is the first part, “Na” is the middle & end “UM” formed by the bindu is conjoined with the foregoing & all of them form the Sacred word. This Mantra if pronounced properly, has the power of revaling The Divine Lord Ganesh, The sage who receives the Mantra is Ganaka & the Metre is “NICHRAT GAYATRI” The Diety is Ganapati. Om ‘GANG’ Ganapati My salutation to you || 7 ||
Saying Thus, The Devotees should bow to the Lord.

Mediate on the single Tusked Lord, with bent Trunk
May He Grant Knowledge & Inspire me || 8 ||

The “SAGUNA” Form of Lord Ganesha is presented in the above Shloka I salute the Lord with 1 tusk (Right side) Who has 4 hands;
Upper Right carrying binding rope; Upper left hoalding goad; lower left carrying Broken tusk & the lower right blesses us, the mouse on his banner is also his vehicle.
He is blood red in colour; Pot-Bellied; He has elephant ears & wears red clothes
He is smeared with red sandalwood & decorated with red flowers
He is eternally blessings his devotees & was existing before Cosmos
