The stuti Parashurama speaks to Gajanana in the Ganesha Purana, and it is the moment he gets his name. He praises him first as the equal of a thousand suns, lord of every knowledge and giver of every attainment, lord of obstacles and remover of them, the inner ruler of all, whose form is knowledge itself. Ganesha answers that he has come on account of the six-syllabled mantra recited day and night, and offers whatever is wished for. The reply is the point of the piece: you who are not to be reached by the Vedas, nor by austerity, nor sacrifice, nor heaped-up vows, nor gifts, nor yoga, have been seen by me through your own grace — what else should I ask for? Give me firm devotion. Ganesha grants it, and then hands over the axe: take this destroyer of enemies, and through the three worlds you will be known as Parashurama.
