It's a sacred hymn offered in the holy feet of Lord Ganesha "Vakratunda" implies the curved trunk, which symbolizes the ability to work with wisdom. As such the trunk carries out both the functions i.e  to sense or to smell and to lift things, in other words, it briefs up the art of bringing knowledge and action together. Due to which one is able to make wise decisions in life by differentiating between the right and wrong . Lord Ganesha is therefore also called  The Lord Of Wisdom

The symbol of his intelligence that he is in sync with the comfort of all, besides aspiring for his own growth and excellence.
When this becomes the life then undoundoubtedly blessings of success and happiness shower on a being and he is able to fight back al obstacles.Its then that the Ganesha's
mantra manifests in his life to the fullest.
