ज्येष्ठराजं ब्रह्मणां ब्रह्मणस् पत आ नः षृण्वन्नूतिभिः सीद सादनम्॥
gaṇānāṁ tvā gaṇapatiṁ havāmahe kaviṁ kavīnāmupamaśravastamam|
jyeṣṭharājaṁ brahmaṇāṁ brahmaṇas pata ā naḥ ṣṛṇvannūtibhiḥ sīda sādanam ||

Try saying each word group 12 times …8 groups
[gaṇānāṁ tvā] [gaṇapatiṁ havāmahe] [kaviṁ kavīnām] [upamaśravastamam|]

Then recite the full śloka-mantra 108 times. In this say ‘auṁ’ loudly (long) first and then in next breath say full śloka once.
