9. dvādaśākṣari mantra ( द्वादशाक्षरि मन्त्र ) :- The 12 lettered mantra is –

oṃ hrīṃ gaṃ hasti piśāci likhe svāhā

ॐ ह्रीं गं हस्ति पिशाचि लिखे स्वाहा

The above mantra should be recited using the above consecrated japa māla. The māla should have 108 beads plus a meru or head bead. The count is from the meru bead and back. The meru bead itself should not be counted. When the count reaches the meru, flip the māla, to count in reverse and so on, for the decided number of māla counts.

Mantra meaning:-

The meaning of the navārṇa mantra is “One who’s in union with hastipiśāci”, signifying the śiva-śakti-aikya aspect of Brahman. This is the state of the union of both the dynamic and static super consciousness, signifying supreme bliss or liberation or the unmanifested Super consciousness, i.e. Para-Brahman Itself . The sound of brahman is oṃ, also called as śabda brahman. The bīja mantra of śakti is hrīṃ and that of Lord Gaṇeśa is gaṃ. In this context of śiva-śakti-aikya,  Lord Gaṇeśa is seen as śakta or śiva. The combination therefore of the manifested states of brahman, śabda- śakti- śiva with the Para-Brahman, is the significance of this mantra. It is regarded as a very auspiciousness and an extremely powerful mantra of Lord Gaṇeśa.
