Making Light:  Grind ::: July 01, 2004, 11:52 AM

Xopher:

  Now, with all the devotion your heart can muster, say "Om Ganesha
  ya nama" 108 times.

The mantra I learned is Om Gum Ganapatayei Namaha, for which I find
the translation "Om and salutations to the remover of obstacles for
which Gum is the seed."  "Gum" is a sound that evokes the deity of
Ganesh.

There used to be an audio version of this at
http://www.globalword.net/concerts.htm, but that seems to be gone.
After several tries, the obstacles to

fell away, and I found an audio presentation.

This information is for comparative purposes, not necessarily as a
recommendation.  I've still got a lot of obstacles.
