TRANSLATION I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, whose lotus feet are always held by Gaëeça upon the pair of tumuli protruding from his elephant head in order to obtain power for his function of destroying all the obstacles on the path of progress of the three worlds. PURPORT The power of destroying all obstacles to mundane prosperity has been delegated to Gaëeça who is the object of worship to those who are eligible to worship him. He has obtained a rank among the five gods as Brahmä possessing mundane quality. The self-same Gaëeça is a god in possession of delegated power by infusion of the divine power. All his glory rests entirely on the grace of Govinda.
