Ganesha Dwadasanama Stotra (traditional, from Puranic / Smriti devotional literature) · Traditional (anonymous Puranic verse) · Classical (Puranic devotional tradition)

Lord Ganesha is the Vighnaharta — the remover of obstacles — and is therefore invoked at the very beginning of every auspicious act. This 'Dwadasanama' verse gathers twelve of his most celebrated names into a compact prayer and, crucially, specifies the occasions on which its recitation guarantees an obstacle-free path: education, marriage, entering and leaving, battle and crisis. Because of this explicit promise, the verse became one of the most widely used 'mangala' (auspicious beginning) prayers across Hindu households, recited before students open their books, travellers set out, and families begin any important ceremony.

ଶାସ୍ତ୍ରରେ କୁହାଯାଇଥିବା ପରି

Tradition holds that students who recite these twelve names before their lessons and examinations find their path to knowledge cleared of confusion and hindrance, and travellers who chant them before setting out complete their journeys safely — for, as the verse promises, 'for that person no obstacle ever arises.'

Sumukhashchaikadantashcha (Twelve Names of Ganesha) ପାଠ ବିଧି

ଜପ ସଂଖ୍ୟା12ଥର
ଉତ୍ତମ ସମୟBefore beginning any new work — at the start of study, journeys, ventures, ceremonies, or each morning

Recite this verse at the outset of any important undertaking — before opening a book to study, sitting an exam, starting a journey, entering a new place, beginning a venture, or facing a difficult situation. Begin with a remembrance of Ganesha, then chant the twelve names attentively; reciting the full verse three or twelve times is traditional. The verse itself promises that even hearing the names brings the same protection, so it may also be played or recited aloud for the benefit of a gathering before an auspicious event.

ଏହି ପୃଷ୍ଠାରେ ସମ୍ପୂର୍ଣ Sumukhashchaikadantashcha (Twelve Names of Ganesha) ଓଡ଼ିଆ ଲିପିରେ ଦିଆଯାଇଛି — ସେହି ମୂଳ ଶ୍ଳୋକ, ଅକ୍ଷର-ଅକ୍ଷର ଲିପ୍ୟନ୍ତରିତ, ଯାହାଦ୍ୱାରା ଆପଣ ସହଜରେ ପଢ଼ି ଜପ କରିପାରିବେ। ଯେକୌଣସି ଧାଡ଼ି (କିମ୍ବା ▶ ବଟନ୍) ଛୁଇଁ ତାହାର ପାଠ ଶୁଣନ୍ତୁ।
ହଁ — କେବଳ ଲିପି ବଦଳେ; ଶବ୍ଦ ଓ ସେମାନଙ୍କ ଅର୍ଥ ମୂଳ ହିଁ ରହେ। ଏହି ପୃଷ୍ଠାର ଶ୍ଳୋକ-ଶ୍ଳୋକ ଅର୍ଥ, ଲାଭ ଓ ପାଠ ବିଧି ସମାନ ଭାବେ ପ୍ରଯୁଜ୍ୟ।
They are Sumukha, Ekadanta, Kapila, Gajakarnaka, Lambodara, Vikata, Vighnanasha, Ganadhipa, Dhumraketu, Ganadhyaksha, Bhalachandra and Gajanana — together known as the Dwadasa Nama (twelve names) of Lord Ganesha.
The verse itself lists the occasions: at the start of study (vidyarambha), at a marriage (vivaha), while entering or departing (pravesha-nirgama), in battle (sangrama) and in any crisis (sankata). It is the ideal prayer before exams, journeys, new ventures and ceremonies to ensure a hindrance-free outcome.
Both honour Ganesha's names, but they are distinct verses. The Sankatanashana stotra lists the names in an ordinal sequence ('Prathamam Vakratundam...'), while this verse names them directly ('Sumukhashchaikadantashcha...') and emphasises the specific life-occasions on which reciting them removes all obstacles.
The verse states 'yah pathet shrinuyad api' — whoever recites them OR even hears them. So both reciting the names yourself and attentively listening to them are said to grant Ganesha's protection from obstacles.
