2. Yantra

Although there are many yantra for worshipping Lord Gaṇeśa, the following Yantra uses the twelve names of Śri Gaṇeśa as given by Nārada Muni and is considered most auspicious for education. This has been tried many times by your author and remarkable results have been reported, at times beyond the wildest imagination of the persons using them. This is to be drawn on a silver plate/foil and is to be kept near the study.

Siddha Mantra

नमो गणपतये तुभ्यम् ज्येष्ठज्येष्ठाय ते नमः

Namo Gaṇapataye Tubhyaṁ Jyeṣṭhajyeṣṭhāya Te Namaḥ

Siddhi Beeja Mantra

Siddhi Beeja Mantras of Śrī Gaṇeśa are capable of accomplishing any task or desire. The activity desired is to be mentioned with the word “Siddhaye” and “Namaḥ” after either of the two Bīja Mantra. The first mantra is for positive karma whereas the second mantra has the “Astra (Weapon)” and should be used sparingly.

Mantra-1

ॐ अन्तरिक्षाय स्वाहा

Oṁ Antarikṣāya Svāhā

Example: If a person wants to become an expert in Mantras, then the Siddhi mantra for this will be as follows:

ॐ अन्तरिक्षाय स्वाहा मन्त्रसिद्धये नमः

Oṁ Antarikṣāya Svāhā Mantrasiddhaye Namaḥ

Mantra-2

ॐ ह्रीं पूर्वाद्यां ॐ ह्रीं फट् स्वाहा

Oṁ Hrīṁ Purvādyāṁ Oṁ Hrīṁ phaṭ Svāhā.

Gaṇānāṁ tvā Gaṇapatiṁ Havāmahey Kaviṁ Kavināmupamaśravastamaṁ

Jyeṣṭharājaṁ Brahmaṇāṁ Brahmaṇaspata ā Naḥ Śṛaṇvannūtibhiḥ Sīda Sādanaṁ

Translation: O Gaṇeśa, Lord of all seers, praise be to Thee; Thou art Omniscient and the unmatched wisdom of the wise. Thou art the precursor (oṁ) of all prayers and the Lord of all souls; we pray for Thy guidance for success in all good actions.
