Prologue To Śrī Ucchi A Ga Eśa

Prologue to śrī ucchiṣṭa gaṇeśa (gaṇapati) mantra sādhana :-
Tantra is a system or framework, meant for spiritual salvation, as well as achievement of

material objectives. The root ‘tan’ means ‘to expand’ and ‘tra’ in this context is ‘liberation’. śrī
ucchiṣṭa gaṇeśa sādhana, falls under the tantra category. Various commentaries and texts suggest
that it’s more effective under the vāmamārga or left handed path, than any other. However, the
mantras in general, can be practiced by followers of any path. The same applies for śrī ucchiṣṭa
gaṇeśa sādhana.
The paths of tantra, generally fall under four categories. Various descriptions exist for these
paths.
1. Vāmamārga or the left-handed path is known for it’s esoteric and unconventional
methods, without any binding to the norms of the society. Adherents consider everything
sacred and focus primarily on the sādhana (spiritual quest) than anything else. There are
no taboos and everything is considered to be a manifestation of the superconsciousness
and is therefore sacred. Freeing the mind from everything through internal worship and
focusing primarily on the mantra japa is the objective.
2. Dakṣiṇamārga or the right-handed path, is known for it’s plethora of vedic rituals and
maintaining utmost sanctity towards the worship of the deity. Laden with numerous
rituals that need to be performed externally, this method focuses on creating an
environment of utmost devotion as well as a fear of the unknown. The fear stems from
the fact of missing out any rituals or not following the norms properly or as dictated by
the guru. Strict adherence of rules including celibacy, proper diet, time of worship etc. are
mandated.
3. Kaulamārga is a mix of both Vāma and Dakṣiṇamārgas. Importance to the pañcamakaras
or their substitutes is followed in this tradition. Importance of a partner is stressed in
some rituals. It is not important for one to follow every single ritual and this allows a
great deal of flexibility, based on one’s disposition.
4. Samayamārga is mostly meditative and some rituals of dakṣiṇamārga are followed either
internally or externally.
Irrespective of the path one chooses, devotion and perseverance are of

paramount importance.
śrī ucchiṣṭa gaṇeśa (gaṇapati) sādhana is described as the “essence of all tantras”. From a
material perspective, it is meant for give victory in all sorts of competitions, game of dice or
gambling etc., as well as considerable wealth, for those who achieve siddhi or complete
fructification of the mantra. It is said that the mantras of śrī ucchiṣṭa gaṇapati made Kubera,
the treasurer of all material riches and Vibhīṣaṇa, the king of Lanka. The mantras from 9 to
19 letters (Sanskrit) are primarily meant for both material and spiritual objectives, but
primarily used for material purposes. The higher lettered mantras are more on the spiritual
side, especially the 37 lettered mantra, that is said to grant mokṣa, or lead us in that direction.
Hastipiśāci is the consort or the śakti of śrī ucchiṣṭa gaṇapati. The large elephant head of
Lord gaṇeśa, is said to be the repository of all knowledge and his supreme intellect. The word
‘hasti’ represents an elephant and ‘piśāci’ refers to a class of celestial beings of the highest
order. There are other ‘piśāci’ classes that closely resemble goblins or similar beings. The
śakti of śrī ucchiṣṭa gaṇapati, Hastipiśāci is among the supreme beings, just the same as
mahāpiśāci that’s used to refer to śrī Mātaṅgī.
The following two quotes from the book called amarakośaṃ describe piśācis.
piśāco guhyaka ssiddho bhūto'mī devayonayaḥ
पिशाचो गुह्यक स्सिद्धो भूतोऽमी दे वयोनयः
Meaning:- piśācis, guhyakās, siddhis and bhūtās are born of devās.
eśitāśāstāmasāḥ svayaṃ nirmāṃsāḥ
एपशताशास्तामसाः स्वयं पनमाां साः
Meaning:- piśācis are meat eating celestial beings and tamasic by nature and are also very
thin and almost fleshless in appearance.
śrī ucchiṣṭa gaṇapati is also seen as a mahā yakṣā and his consort hastipiśāci as a yakṣiṇi. This
visualization is for material purposes only.
To comprehend the full form of śrī ucchiṣṭa gaṇeśa from a holistic perspective, The following
śloka from īśopaniṣad can be stated in this context. More ślokas from atharva veda state the
same.
oṃ pūrṇamadaḥ pūrṇamidaṃ pūrṇātpurṇamudacyate ।
pūrṇasya pūrṇamādāya pūrṇamevāvaśiṣyate ॥
ॐ िूर्णमदः िूर्णपमदं िूर्ाण त्पुर्णमुदच्यते ।
िूर्णस्य िूर्णमादाय िूर्णमेवावपशष्यते ॥
The Whole is beyond, Whole is this (creation)
From Whole the Whole emanates,
Of Whole the Whole having been taken
The Whole is even left over.
The creation or visarga bhāva that we live in, is a complete Whole manifestation of the universe
or brahmāṇḍa. This Whole manifestation comes from the bhūta bhāva or the creative aspect
called goddess śakti, the dynamic superconsciousness, which is also a Whole manifestation in
HERSELF. The bhūta bhāva comes forth from the adhyātma bhāva or SELF or Lord śiva, the
static superconsciousness, the manifested saguṇa brahman, who is a Whole by HIMSELF.
saguṇa brahman is manifested from parambhāva or parabrahman, a Whole by ITSELF.
During the creative involution, the creation is a complete infinite Whole and thus the
involutionary form of bhūta bhāva is also a complete Whole, the Whole having been taken off
during the process, remains a complete Whole. This residual Whole is named ucchiṣṭa brahman
or ucchiṣṭa gaṇeśa, the parabrahman, the ultimate supreme reality or the singular principle. He is
also in all the leftover Wholes mentioned above - śrī mātā and śiva.
Karma is of three types – sañcita, prārabdha, and āgāmi. Prārabdha is the portion of sañcita, that
we experience in this lifetime and āgāmi is what we accumulate to be added to sañcita. Sañcita is
the leftover ucchiṣṭa karma that could be eliminated through the mantra sādhana of śrī ucchiṣṭa
gaṇapati, leading us to liberation.
When we are devoid of our ego, pride, achievements, lineage and anything else that binds us to
the body or person, then the consciousness that is leftover, is ucchiṣṭa brahman or śrī ucchiṣṭa
gaṇapati.
Samaya means time. Brahman is beyond time and space and all other dimensions that can be
conceived. There are therefore no specific muhurtas or auspicious timings for starting the śrī
ucchiṣṭa gaṇapati sādhana. There are also no requirements to check the eligibility of an
individual based on the various tools such as the akāthaha cakra etc. Consciousness is not
separate from the superconsciousness. The mantra obtained from a siddha guru is by itself potent
and can be recited without any hesitation by the sādhaka. Also, there are no stringent
requirements on cleanliness etc. The consciousness is the purest that there is and all we need, is
to sync our breath with the mantra. All other preliminaries are simply to lead us to that point.
Once the form of śrī ucchiṣṭa gaṇapati is fixed in the minds of the sādhaka and the mantra is
synchronized with breath, no other dhyāna, viniyoga or nyāsas are required.
Śrī Ucchiṣṭa Gaṇapati Yantra Āvaraṇa Pūja

Prologue :-
All tantra sādhanas involve the worship of the deity, through the form of a yantra (maṇḍala). The
yantras are sacred geometric diagrams, that are deemed to represent the japa sādhana deity, at the
very centre, covered by other deities. The coverings or āvaraṇas, are usually at the corners or
centres, of intersecting geometric figures.
The pīṭha and āvaraṇa pūjas are performed during the mantra japa, after the dhyāna verse. The
pūjas are for worshipping the yantra of śrī ucchiṣṭa gaṇapati, to bestow His grace on the mantra
japa and sādhana. Pīṭha represents the table or stool, upon which the yantra is placed. Usually,
the yantra is placed on a red or yellow cloth.
It is very important to note, that the directions mentioned on yantras related to tantra sādhana, are
not necessarily the same as their geographical equivalents. In tantra, the directions for deities,
can be different from the geographical notation and it also varies by the gender of the deity. In
general, For male deities, the East direction is the geophraphical South and for female deities, it’s
the geographical North. For śrī vidyā related deities, the East is usually on the geographical
north.
The direction of East is where South should be in the yantra of śrī ucchiṣṭa gaṇapati, for
worshipping the śaktis. Please follow the enumerated corners in the yantra, for each of the
āvaraṇa deities. The pīṭha devatās are not represented on the yantra, since the yantra itself is
placed on the pīṭha.
Before starting the pūja, ensure that you have a brass plate, some water in a jug or a container, as
well as a disposable container for the water. Another viśeṣa arghya vessel (water container)
should also be kept ready for the tarpaṇa. Keep some flower petals, kumkum (red powder),
clarified butter or ghee, a clean cloth and some unbroken rice or akṣatas ready as well. A spoon
or uttaraṇi, should be handy for the tarpaṇa. This should be done in the similar manner as the śrī
cakra āvaraṇa pūja. The flower petals can be placed from the left hand and the tarpaṇa from the
right hand. Internal worship can also be done by those, who’re unable to perform in a ritualistic
manner.
pīṭha puja ( पीठ पूज ) :-
Utter the following mantra, to felicitate the pīṭha devatās :-
oṃ maṃ manḍūkādi paratatvānta pīṭha devatābhyo namaḥ
ॐ मं मन्डूकापद िरतत्वान्त िीठ दे वताभ्यो नमः
Worship the 9 pīṭha devathās starting from east, in clockwise direction.
