Re: Ganesh Bhajan with Mahamantra
Namste shian ji,
No it is nothing like that, in my personal life I haven't heard of any ganesha bhajan ending with mahamantra, You might have heard ganesha bhajans as promoted by isckon.
Also lord ganesha himself is para brahman, the supreme lord, Ganesha Upanishad confirms it.
6. You create this world. You maintain this world. All this world is seen in you. You are Earth, water, Fire, Air, Aethyr. You are beyond the four measures of speech. You are beyond the Three Gunas. You are beyond the three bodies. You are beyond the three times. (Ganesha upanishad)
so there is no difference in lord ganesha and his father lord shiva and his mother, the mother of whole universe maa jagad amba.

namaste EM ji,
Even for me I am hearing it first time in my entire life, it is definitely an uncommon thing, I have never heard of ganesha bhajan ending with mahamantra which is definitely not a vedic mantra and not even common mantra among traditional hindus. In fact ganesha arti ends with praise of lord ganesha only or some times with rudra gayatri.(praise of Lord shiva)
When the light has risen, there is no day, no night, neither existence nor non-existence; Siva alone is there. That is the eternal, the adorable light of Savitri, - and the ancient wisdom proceeded thence (Svetasvatara Upanishad IV-18). :)
