Versions Of Gayatri Mantra
Good Morning Friends.
Today in my blog sharing the meaning of Shree Gayatri Mantra and its symbolic meaning. There are two versions of Gayatri Mantra one can chant.
According to the Hindu scriptures, Devi Gayatri is the mother of the Vedas. It is said that even Trinities (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva) worship her as their Mother. Gayatri Mantra is the preferred customary mantra for all Hindus and respected as the remover of all sins and the bestower of all wished things. It is also part of the Sandhya Vandana.
following is the most commonly recited Gayatri Mantra.
“Om Bhur Bhuvah Suvah Tat Saviturvarenyam
Bhargodevasya Dheemahi Dhiyoyonah Prachodhayaath”
The meaning of the Gayatri mantra is as follows:
We contemplate the glory of light illuminating the three worlds: gross, subtle, and causal. I am that vivifying power, love, radiant illumination, and divine grace of universal intelligence. We pray for the divine light to illumine our minds.
Om: The primeval sound
Bhur: the physical world
Bhuvah: the mental world
Suvah: the celestial, spiritual world
Tat: That; God; transcendental paramatma
Savithur: the sun, creator, preserver
Varenyam: most adorable, enchanting
Bhargo: luster, effulgence
Devasya: resplendent, supreme Lord
Dheemahi: we meditate upon
Dhiyo: the intellect, understanding
Yo: May this light
Nah: our
Prachodhayaath: enlighten, guide, inspire
The other Gayatri Mantra is as follows:
Om Bhu, Om Bhuvah, Om Svaa, Om Mahaa, Om Janah,
Om Tapah, Om Satyam, Om Tat Savitur Varenyam Bhargo
Devasya Dheemahi Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodhayaath
Om Apo Jyotih Raso-mritam Brahmaa Bhur Bhuvah Swaa Om
According to the Hindu religion and belief there are fourteen worlds. Bhu, Bhuvah, Svaa, Mahaa, Janah, Tapah, Satyam are the seven Higher worlds and Atata, Kutala, Vitala, Mahatala, Rasatala, Bhutala, and Patala are the seven Lower worlds. The above Gayatri mantra is recited by those seeking the Higher worlds.#jawaharlalla#@jbl7blogs#jbl7#Gayatrimantra#spiritual#mantras.
