With Lord Krishna / Story / Same

“I worship the primeval Lord, Govinda. Ganesha always holds His lotus feet upon the pair of tumuli protruding from his elephant head in order to obtain power for his function of destroying all obstacles on the path of progress in the three worlds.” (Brahma-samhita 5.50)

Vakratunda

Ganesha’s first avatara is of Vakratunda , an embodiment of the Absolute Impersonal aspect of Godhood. A demon named Matsara was born out of the Pramaada of Indra. This demon performed severe penance and invoked the grace of Lord Shiva and obtained the boon of fearlessness from Him. Having obtained the boon he went about conquering all the three worlds," The defeated gods went to Kailasa and prayed to Lord Shiva for protection. Lord Dattatreya advised the gods to invoke the grace of Lord Vakratunda and imparted to them the secret of the monosyllable mantra Gam. All the gods including Shiva did penance accordingly and at last Lord Vakratunda appeared and assured them that he would subdue the demon. The demon was so terrified at the sight of Vakratunda that he surrendered to Him and sought refuge at His feet. The Lord forgave him, and restored the lost glory and kingdoms to the gods, and to the various kings on earth.

Durga

Durgamasur had stolen all the four Vedas and it was upon killing him that Goddess Durga was named. The Vedas started losing their powers, and people started forgetting the Vedic mantras. Lord Ganesh went to get them back from him and since the Vedas had lost their powers, Lord Ganesha who is known as Vidyapati, started chanting those mantras again to revive their powers and he was able to get them back from Durgamasur. The four Mantras are

  1. "Om Asato ma Sadgamaya", 
  2. "Om Swasti Na Indro", 
  3. "Om Dyauha Shantirantariksha" and 
  4. "Gayatri Mantra".
