Om! O Devas, may we hear with our ears what is auspicious; May we see with our eyes what is auspicious. May we live the life allotted by the Gods praising them with steady bodies and limbs. Om Peace, Peace, Peace.

ॐ नमस्ते गणपतये ।
त्वमेव प्रत्यक्षं तत्त्वमसि ।
त्वमेव केवलं कर्ताऽसि ।

त्वमेव सर्वं खल्विदं ब्रह्मासि ।
त्वं साक्षादात्माऽसि नित्यम् ॥ १ ॥

Om, Salutations to Lord Ganapati. You are the visible Truth (Tattva). You are the sole Creator, Sustainer, and Destroyer. You are essentially the Brahman (Absolute Reality). You are the eternal Self (Atman).

ऋतं वच्मि । सत्यं वच्मि ॥ २ ॥

I speak the Divine Law (Ritam). I speak the Absolute Truth (Satyam).

अव त्वं माम् । अव वक्तारम् ।

सर्वतो मां पाहि पाहि समन्तात् ॥ ३ ॥

Protect me. Protect the speaker and the listener. Protect the giver and the sustainer. Protect the teacher and the disciple. Protect me from all directions—East, West, North, South, Above, and Below. Protect me from all sides.

त्वं प्रत्यक्षं ब्रह्मासि ।
त्वं ज्ञानमयो विज्ञानमयोऽसि ॥ ४ ॥

You are the embodiment of Speech and Consciousness. You are Bliss and Brahman. You are Existence-Consciousness-Bliss (Sat-Chit-Ananda). You are the visible Brahman. You are Knowledge and Wisdom.

सर्वं जगदिदं त्वत्तो जायते ।
सर्वं जगदिदं त्वयि तिष्ठति ।
सर्वं जगदिदं त्वयि लयमेष्यति ।
सर्वं जगदिदं त्वयि प्रत्येति ।
त्वं भूमिरापोऽनलोऽनिलो नभः ।
त्वं चत्वारि वाक्पदानि ॥ ५ ॥

This entire universe is born from You, sustained by You, and dissolves into You. You are Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space. You are the four stages of speech.

त्वं गुणत्रयातीतः । त्वं अवस्थात्रयातीतः ।
त्वं देहत्रयातीतः । त्वं कालत्रयातीतः ।
त्वं मूलाधारस्थितोऽसि नित्यम् ।
त्वं शक्तित्रयात्मकः ।
त्वां योगिनो ध्यायन्ति नित्यम् ।
त्वं ब्रह्मा त्वं विष्णुस्त्वं रुद्रस्त्वमिन्द्रस्त्वमग्निस्त्वं वायुस्त्वं सूर्यस्त्वं चन्द्रमास्त्वं ब्रह्मभूर्भुवस्सुवरोम् ॥ ६ ॥

You are beyond the three Gunas (Sattva, Rajas, Tamas), three states (waking, dream, deep sleep), and three bodies. You reside in the Muladhara Chakra. You are Brahma, Vishnu, Rudra, Indra, Agni, Vayu, Surya, and Chandra. You are the three worlds (Bhu, Bhuvah, Suvah).

गणादिं पूर्वमुच्चार्य वर्णादिं तदनन्तरम् ।
अनुस्वारः परतरः । अर्धेन्दुलसितम् ।
तारेण ऋद्धम् । एतत्तव मनुस्वरूपम् ।
गकारः पूर्वरूपम् । अकारो मध्यरूपम् ।
अनुस्वारश्चान्त्यरूपम् । बिन्दुरुत्तररूपम् ।
नादः सन्धानम् । संहिता सन्धिः ।
सैषा गणेशविद्या । गणक ऋषिः ।
निचृद्गायत्रीच्छन्दः । गणपतिर्देवता ।
ॐ गं गणपतये नमः ॥ ७ ॥

Chanting ‘Ga’ first, followed by ‘A’, then Anusvara and the crescent moon (Bindu). This forms the mantra ‘Gam’. The Sage is Ganaka, the meter is Nicrd-Gayatri, and the deity is Ganapati. The Mantra is: Om Gam Ganapataye Namah.

एकदन्ताय विद्महे वक्रतुण्डाय धीमहि ।
तन्नो दन्तिः प्रचोदयात् ॥ ८ ॥

We meditate upon the One-Tusked Lord. We meditate upon the Lord with the Curved Trunk. May that Tusked One inspire and guide our intellect.

एकदन्तं चतुर्हस्तं पाशमङ्कुशधारिणम् ।
रदं च वरदं हस्तैर्बिभ्राणं मूषकध्वजम् ।
रक्तं लम्बोदरं शूर्पकर्णकं रक्तवाससम् ।
रक्तगन्धानुलिप्ताङ्गं रक्तपुष्पैः सुपूजितम् ।
भक्तानुकम्पिनं देवं जगत्कारणमच्युतम् ।
आविर्भूतं च सृष्ट्यादौ प्रकृतेः पुरुषात्परम् ।
एवं ध्यायति यो नित्यं स योगी योगिनां वरः ॥ ९ ॥

He has one tusk, four arms, holds a noose and goad. He is red in complexion, has a large belly, and ears like winnowing fans. He is worshipped with red flowers. He who meditates on Him thus is the best among Yogis.

नमो व्रातपतये । नमो गणपतये ।
नमः प्रमथपतये ।
नमस्तेऽस्तु लम्बोदरायैकदन्ताय
विघ्ननाशिने शिवसुताय
वरदमूर्तये नमः ॥ १० ॥

Salutations to the Lord of Vratas, the Lord of Ganas, and the Lord of Pramathas. Salutations to the Big-Bellied One, the One-Tusked One, the Destroyer of Obstacles, the Son of Shiva, the Boon-Giver.

एतदथर्वशीर्षं योऽधीते । स ब्रह्मभूयाय कल्पते ।
स सर्वविघ्नैर्न बाध्यते । स सर्वत्र सुखमेधते ।
स पञ्चमहापापात्प्रमुच्यते ।
सायमधीयानो दिवसकृतं पापं नाशयति ।
प्रातरधीयानो रात्रिकृतं पापं नाशयति ।
सायंप्रातः प्रयुञ्जानो अपापो भवति ।
सर्वत्राधीयानोऽपविघ्नो भवति ।
धर्मार्थकाममोक्षं च विन्दति ॥ ११ ॥

He who studies this Atharvashirsha becomes eligible for Brahman-hood. He is not affected by any obstacles. He finds happiness everywhere. He is freed from the five great sins.

॥ इति श्रीगणपत्यथर्वशीर्षम् समाप्तम् ॥
