Shri Maha-Ganapati is the embodiment of buddh¡-intellect and gyana- the wisdom. Shri Ganapati is known to be bighnavinashak, sankatnashak - who prevents obstacles and problems from arising and brings all the problems and suffering to an end. Shri Ganapati being the son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, inherits the multiple qualities and powers and has honour of first worship in all Vedic performances and rituals.

Shri Ganapati Sahasranam-1000 names describe 1000 qualities of Ganapati. Each name of Ganapati is full of significance; it refers to a quality of consciousness. Listening Sahasranam enlivens these qualities of Ganapati in the consciousness of the listener and at the same time, these qualities are charged in the environment.

Shri Ganapati Ashtottar Shatnamavali has 108 names of Ganapati. These names are few of the most important qualities and may be chanted while offering d™rva or flowers to Ganapati.

Shri Sankashtanashanam Stotra is a Siddha Stotra of Ganapati. As described in phalshruti-benefits of chanting Shri Ganapati Sahasranam and other stotras of Ganapati, Devotees enjoy fruits of all knowledge, prosperity, prevention from problems and elimination of sin and suffering from their life. All latent powers-riddhis and siddhis are enlivened.

Friday is the day of Ganapati. It is recommended to listen Sahasranam and other stotras of Ganapati on Friday
