Gajananam Bhoota Ganadi Sevitam,
Kapittha Jambu phalasara bhakshitam
Umasutam Shoka Vinasha karanam
Namami Vighneswara pada pankajam”


“Oh Elephant-faced, worshiped by the existing beings,
of all living beings, tasting the elephant apple (kaith) and jambolana (jamun),
the Son of Uma, destroyer of grief,
I bow to the lotus feet of Ganesh who is lord of all.”

Many l of us have come across this powerful mantra of Lord Ganesha.  The meaning of this mantra is also widely known.  Now let us look at this mantra in another context and you will see the message of surviving today Diabetes.

Gajananam means = very big,  very much, very high, plenty, sufficient
Bhoota means = having bitter taste  (example, the taste of bitter guard Karela )
Ganadi means = in total, or in totality, from top to bottom, from bottom to top etc
Sevitam, means =  if consumed, if drunk, or if eaten
Kapittha means = the stem of Lotus (lotus flower)
Jambu phala means =  fruit of jambun or jamun (one kind of fruit, very famous and having medicinal values)
sara means = every, all, juice
bhakshitam =  if consumed, if eaten, if drunk etc
Uma means = sweet
sutam means = which takes birth, taken birth from, taken birth of
Shoka means =   disease, illness
Vinasha karanam means =  the destroying factor, or the destroying element
pada pankajam means = both the legs
Vighneswara means =  to take immense care, take extra ordinary care (yourself to remove all odds)
Namami means = keeping clean, keeping neat
Now,  let us combine this, understand  and study the message.

The first verse of the mantra directs saying – Take the bitter guard (including roots, stems, flowers, and bitter guard), stem of lotus flower, and the jamun fruit,  in equal quantities and make the juice of it.  Now consume the same.  The word gaNAdi gives us the meaning for taking these items in ‘equal quantity’

Then what will happen -

Umasutam Shoka Vinasham, means the illness, the disease, the sickness which takes birth from uma ( here to be read as from sweet), will be vinASa kAraNam, means it will vanish.  Here the shoka , which means the roga or the disease we get from sweet ..?  No doubt, it is Diabetes.


Also the mantra states those who are having Diabeties, they are warned to be careful and protect their legs (ie, keep it very neat, clean and without dust, mud.)

Regular Chanting of this mantra keeping the bhakti or divine spirit of Ganesha in mind, no doubt, it will do away all hurdles in life.  But if one chants this mantra with the thinking explained above, it will result into destroying the Diabetes.   Thus, this powerful mantra is not only to praise Lord Ganesha but if one is chanting this mantra he will be cured from Diabetes.
