##This hymn or stotra has a peculiar structure. Each of the verses has a
letter from the Mahaganapati mantram (viz) ##shrImahAgaNapataye namaH .##
Shrimahaganapataye namaha (namana) in the beginning.  In addition they
also have a line from the Vedas in the second half of the second line. For
example, in the case of the first verse the portion reading shriya.n vAsaya
me kule | ##shriya.n vAsaya me kule . ## is a sentence from the Shrisuktam
from the Vedas.
