We
meditate on Lord Ganesha - who is clad in white (representing purity),
who is all pervading (present everywhere), whose complexion is gray
like that of ash (glowing with spiritual splendor), who has four arms,
who has bright countenance (depicting inner calm and happiness) and who
can destroy all obstacles (in our spiritual and worldly path).

I bow down before Vishnu, the Lord of all worlds and the remover of all
causes of fear. He is of blissful form. he lies on a serpent bed. He
sports a lotus on His navel. The Lord of the celestials. He supports
the whole cosmos.His limbs are exquisite and His complexion is blue
like that of the sky and the rain cloud. The consort of Lakshmi. He has
eyes rivalling the lotus. The yogis meditate on Him in their innermost
heart.

The Lord with the curved trunk and a mighty body, who has the luster of
a million suns, I pray to thee Oh Lord, to remove the obstacles from
all the actions I intend to perform.
