Hayagriva Mahatyam
A great devotee named Vaadhiraja Theerthar of Udupi Sri Krishna Mutt used to offer cooked horse oats(Kollu) to Lord Hayagriva. He used to recite the Hayagriva Sloka and keep the offerings on his head. Lord Hayagriva would come in a beautiful white horse form and will have oats. Such a very staunch devotee. He would recite the following sloka -
Na HayagrivAth Param Asthi MangaLam
Na HayagrivAth Param Asthi Paavanam
Na HayagrivAth Param Asthi Dhaivatham
Na Hayagrivam Pranipathya Seedhathi!
There is no other auspiciousness which is greater than Hayagrivan There is nothing more sacred than Sri Hayagrivan to destroy our accumulated sins There is no God superior to Hayagrivan There is no one grieves after performing Saranagathi at the sacred feet of Hayagrivan.
He is called as Veda Moorthy. He is the Akararthan. He protects all creatures. He who taught knowledge to Goddess Saraswati. Without his grace, we cannot obtain good knowledge.
