Traditional Sanskrit dhyana/salutation verse to Ganesha · Unknown (traditional) · Traditional

Ekadantam Mahakayam is among the most popular short salutations to Ganesha, recited at the opening of worship alongside 'Vakratunda Mahakaya' and 'Shuklambaradharam'. In two lines it gathers the Lord's best-known epithets — Ekadanta, Mahakaya, Lambodara, Gajanana — and bows to him as the obstacle-destroying Heramba, the protector of all who are weak and seek his shelter.

✦ ਸ਼ਾਸਤਰਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਦੱਸੇ ਅਨੁਸਾਰ

Devotees hold that even this single verse, offered with sincere devotion at the start of any task, draws the grace of Heramba — the mighty yet tender protector — to clear away obstacles and shelter those who turn to him.

It is a single famous Sanskrit verse of salutation to Lord Ganesha. It addresses him by his well-known names — Ekadanta (single-tusked), Mahakaya (mighty-bodied), Lambodara (large-bellied) and Gajanana (elephant-faced) — and bows to him as Heramba, the obstacle-destroying Lord and protector of the weak.
Heramba is a name of Ganesha. It is traditionally understood to mean 'the protector of the weak (and helpless)' and 'the mighty one dear to his Mother'. The five-headed Heramba form, mounted on a lion, is a benevolent, protective aspect of Ganesha.
It is recited in the morning and at the beginning of any worship, study, examination or new venture, as a short prayer to invoke Ganesha and the removal of obstacles for an auspicious, successful start.
Yes. Being short, rhythmic and built from Ganesha's most familiar names, the verse is ideal for daily recitation and is often among the first Ganesha prayers taught to children.
