Ganesha pancharatnam
Sanskrit hymn on Ganesha
The Ganesha Pancharatnam is a stotra composed by Adi Shankara in the 8th century on the Hindu deity Ganesha.[1] Ganesha is referred to by his epithet of Vinayaka in the strota, and the title itself can be translated as "The five jewels in praise of Ganesha". The five jewels are the first five verses, while the sixth verse implores the listener to themselves read or recite the strota and tells them the resulting benefits.[2]
