In Hinduism, the sound “ॐ” (Om) is considered a sacred and spiritual emblem. It stands for the essence of the universe, consciousness, and ultimate reality.
“गं” (Gan): This is Lord Ganesha’s beej (seed) mantra. It is thought to erase barriers and bring success, and it is a representation of Ganesha’s vitality.
In Ganapataye, “गणपतये”: This is referring to Ganesha by another name, Ganapati.
“नमः” (Namaha): This is a widely used Sanskrit phrase that conveys respect, greeting, or honor. It is frequently translated as “I give my respects to” or “I bow down to.”
