Power of Gayathri Mantra

Gayathri Matha

The Gayatri Mantra is most popular and important mantra in Hindu Literature and Puranas. It is called the Raja Mantra (King of Mantras). It gives enormous energy and good spirits to those who chant it how many times he or she could do every day. It is said to bring all positive signs in life if keep on chanting and thinking about this mantra. It has certain peculiar power than any other mantras.

Gayatri Mantra is a highly respected mantra, based on a Vedic Sanskrit verse from a hymn of the Rigveda (3.62.10), attributed to the Guru Vishwamithra

The mantra is named for its Vedic Gayatri Matha.

The Gayatri Mantra is repeated and chanted widely in vedic literature, and praised in several well-known classical Hindu texts such as The Bhagavad Gita. 

Gyathri Mantra is well-regarded and explained in various Upanishads like Bhadranayaka Upanishad, the Svetasvatara Upanishad and the Maitri Upanishad. And also as well as other well-known works such as the Jaiminiya Upanishad Brahmana. 

Just like the Sun removes darkness, so does the Gayatri Mantra destroys ignorance. The Gayatri Mantra invokes the power and radiance of the Sun to energize all earthly life, to destroy our sins and to reveal the Supreme Self to us.

Krishna in the Bhagavad Geeta says: “Amongst the Mantras, I am the Gayatri" 

The Gayatri Mantra is the essence of the three Vedas. It is the Vedas simplified. The more one contemplates and meditates upon the Gayatri, the more complexities are revealed to one. 

Gayatri mantra considered being the most powerful mantra in the world?

OHM Supreme Lord 
BHUR Protector of the earth, the material sheath, The Life breathes of the Universe. From the feet to the navel center. 
BHUVAH One of the meanings is the sky. The Lord who pervades and eliminates all miseries. From the navel to the throat center. 
SVAHAH One of the meanings is the heavens. He is all Bliss and blesses His devotees with happiness. From above the throat center to the thousand petaled lotus. 
TAT That (That Thou Art) 
SAVITUR The SUN, Creator, Preserver and Self Luminous, the central mantra of the Solar Science. 
VARENYAM Most fit to be worshipped. Most choice worthy. 
BHARGO The burning splendor of the Sun that dispels ignorance, and therefore sorrows and miseries. 
DEVASYA The 'Deva', The God, He who is All Bliss, The Joyful One, The Shining One, The Revealer of All Glory 
DHEEMAHI We meditate upon Him 
DHEEYO YO NA Who our intelligence and Wisdom 
PRACHODAYAAT Inspires.

Fact behind Gayatri Mantra:

Once the Devas, the Shining Ones wanted to learn the secrets of the Universe. Since learning about the Scientific aspect 'atoms' etc. did not quite work out, they went to the Lord. The Lord gave them the RIG VEDA, the YAJUR VEDA and the SAMA VEDA to study. After a couple of eons of study, the Devas lost their patience and wanted to quit. The Lord urged them not to give up and decided to teach the essence of the 3 Vedas in 3 fragments: 

Essence of Rig Veda Tat Savitur Varenyam 
Essence of Yajur Veda Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi 
Essence of Sama Veda Dheeyo Yonah Prachodayaat 

The more the Devas practiced and contemplated upon the Gayatri, the more complexities were revealed to them. So they lost patience again and went to the Lord to make it simpler still. So the Lord gave them the essence of the 3 segments, in the 3 words: 

Bhur, Bhuvaha, Svaha 

The Devas spent a few cycles of Creation, probably a quadrillion human years pondering upon the 'maha vyahritis' ie 'Utterances of the Lord' but became impatient again and urged the Lord to make it simpler yet. So He Said "All right I'll make it simpler" 

And He taught them AUM 

How Gayatri Mantra is used in life of a person?


Gayatri is called VEDA MAATA. (Mother of Vedhas)
Gayatri mantram is given to a son at the age of 7 years by Child`s Father .It is called Brahmopadesam. 

Gayatri mantra conains 24 Seed letters (Beejaaksharams) which are highly powerful. 

The Siva Panchakshari contains one seed Letter. [ om nama shivaya ]
The Narayana Astaakshri contains one Seed letter. [ om namo narayanaya ]
Rama naamam contains 2 seed letters. [ram ram ]

Whereas Gayatri Mantra SEED LETTERS with Seven Aum Kaaras and the Divine Bhooh Bhuvah and Suvah etc which are Invocation to Gayatri Mata . 

Each letter of the Mantra is filled with Atomic Energy like power. So we cannot imagine its Power. It is that is why called Mantra Raajam.
