Guest guest Posted October 21, 2005 Report Share Posted October 21, 2005 Recently I brought up the idea of possibly reciting the Gayatri or another mantra world wide at the same time. I see a few people have responded, and would like to do it. If everyone wants to do this then we should all decide collectively what time, and what day we should do this. I believe it should be around the beginning of November right before Swami's 80th Birthday. What do you all think about that?

Sai Ram to everyone, I agree with the idea of collective chanting of the Gayatri Mantra. I would suggest that we all start at 6h00 , Prashanti time. Therefore it will make a chain round the world if each takes it at that respective time in different places. Sunday would be ideal if it suits all. sai ram veena saibabanews, Angelicpassage@a... wrote: > > Sai Ram > Recently I brought up the idea of possibly reciting the Gayatri or > another mantra world wide at the same time....

I think collective Gaytari Mantra is a great idea. But i thought woldn't it be good if we did that on Swami's birthday (Nov 23rd) itself. That would be a wonderful way to start this wonderful sacred day and also a beautiful gift for swami from the heart. sai ram Nirmal ---------- PNDaswani Sat Oct 22, 2005 5:20pm Re: [saibabanews] Worldwide Gayatri/Mantra?

Wow! count me in. I live in northern California, USA. ---------- Angelicpassage Sat Oct 22, 2005 10:34pm Re: Worldwide Gayatri/Mantra? Sai Ram This really sounds great that many people want to do this. I for one am in FL, USA. Is there anyone who has a list or website that can tell us all what our time is when its 6am Prasanthi time? What day shall we do it on? How many times will we chant the Gayatri? 108? Please respond with your ideas. Im sure Swami will be very pleased with this plan as He is with all of our other sadahanas....and we can change the world with our good thoughts and actions. Amen, and Sai Ram KH ---------- bdelaini Sun Oct 23, 2005 3:43am RE: [saibabanews] Re: Worldwide Gayatri/Mantra? Sai ram, I think this would really a splendid thing. I live in Italy and I don't know about the time difference, but I will check, or if some of you knows pls inform me. Think of the huge love created thus way. all my love your Sai sister Berit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 It is wonderful and Powerful to do Gayatri Mantra world wide regularly!!! Look at all the disasters happening around the world through the 5 elements!!!! The 5 elements are none other than GOD. The rectification is in the power of collective Gayatri Mantra which is the MANTRA RAJAM of all the mantras.It is secular and for all humanity. To reinstate the Dharma why can't this silent praying group commit to be a part of SAI GOLDEN ERA by making this chanting a regular event 21 times daily at 6 AM, respective loal time??? Why should we do only on November 23rd or till November 23rd??? On November 26th, 2002Swami gave us doctor's group 2 interviews. Someone specifically asked about the GAYATRI mantram. Swami responded immediately and said "Very Good!! Do it!!". Some one asked how many times??? Swami said "Multiples of three with good intentions!!" Again someone asked "SAI GAYATRI OR REGULAR GAYATRI????" Swami replied "It is upto you". He did not enforce the opinion that he is verily that GAYATRI MA sitting there, but in all kindness he gave freedom of choice to the enquirer. We can never match Swami's humility and we pray that we can only be like him and be guided. I asked if women are empowered to do Gaytri Mantram and does it have the same effect??? If you have discussions with the hard core Brahmins and Temple priests you will hear that it is "APACHAARAM" for women to do Gayatri Mantram. The Universal Consciuosness, BHAGAWAN himself replied, looking at me with wonder even for even asking " Who is Gayatri?? Women can do Gayatri". Every man, woman and child can chant GAYATRI for world welfare daily. Rather than 108 times on special days, daily 21 times for the "PANCHA TANMATRAAS" as an ongoing effort for World Peace will have deep impact. This is only a suggestion. This can be an offering for his 80th birthday in gratitude for his advent to lift the humanity to it's heights. Some people may get up late. GAYATRI can be done by them at 12PM and 6 PM. Some people can take this up at those timings.Then there will be GAYATRI chanting all through the day by many around the globe and it will be a united effort to please the Lord and the 5 elements that he is.

Your are perfectly right saying that this Wordwide chanting of Gayatri Mantra is urgently needed, for so much people as well as this earth needs urgently infinite mountains of love, of pure energy and light. So thank you again for your loving words. all my love from italy Sai sister Berit ---------- sudesh johar <lookfeelgood2004 Sun Oct 23, 2005 11:37am flexibility in committment reqd.-------- Re: [saibabanews] Re: Worldwide Gayatri/Mantra? sai ram dear sister minakshi, with ref to the above correspondence, in my mind if all of us make a vow 2 chant this maha mantra once a day atleast and as many times whenever after that at their conv. time according to their committments of the day will b bttr. i personally chant 108 times Gayatri and sai Gayatri each every day but timings are not fixd.it may not b approp. and offensive 2 some that i am not chanting at the same time every day. but thinking of Lord and wellbeing of His creation all the times is more purifying not only at 6 am and 12pm. every min. of the day is auspicious to chant the name of the Lord. pl forgive me if my thinking sounds offnsive to some lets all join hands ,minds and souls of ours and pray 2 Lord in as many breaths as poss. sai ram with all the love and prayers, sudesh Mrs.Sudesh Johar Sydney, Australia ---------- Angelicpassage Sun Oct 23, 2005 10:54am Re: Worldwide Gayatri Mantra regularly Sai Ram This sounds like a great idea too. We can do it regularly or do it world wide one time at the same time....If we do it regularly then there will be a constant "chain" of Gayatris going on around the world, I feel this is great. But if we do it world wide at the exact same time, this too is very powerful. My mother is also apart of Sai news. She recently told me that she read in DR Ghadia's book that he did the Lord 's name 100,000 times and miraculous events occured. Swami said it was good to do. My mom is currently doing it now taking up about 1000 names a day for a period of time. Perhaps we should all do this using a mala at our own pace, if you have the time. About worldwide: Someone said that I should make a date already, but I want to make sure this is a "joint effort". Anyway, the worldwide Gayatri should perhaps be done on Nov. 6th a sunday at 6am prasanthi time. We just have to figure out how many hours difference we are from Prasanthi. Using a mala about 108 times? If this is alright with everyone then let it be done. Then we could perhaps incorporate MEENA'S idea of regularly. How is that?

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 I concur totally with sister Sudesh Johar. I do chanting all the time I am driving, cooking, cleaning and let not my mind idle on materialistic things. I do some chanting or the other. Regularly 108 Gayatri, no. I do Lalita Sahsranaamam almost daily with Sri Sooktam and Lakshmi Ashtottaram. I think every one of us do some type of individual naamasmarana, every breath. A dedicated time frame for Regular Global Gayatri Chanting can create amplifications of collective positive vibrations and will make the negative vibes set right and will redirect for world peace.

With love, emilia ---------- Molly <thegardens62 Tue Oct 25, 2005 2:10am Re: [saibabanews] Re: Worldwide Gayatri/Mantra? Sai Ram A great idea! I am ready and just waiting for the final decision on date and time. Molly from Dubai, United Arab Emirates ---------- Jatindar Shad <egreatindia Tue Oct 25, 2005 3:43am Re: [saibabanews] Re: Worldwide Gayatri/Mantra? Sai Ram to All, Reading Meenakshi maa's mail charged me to share with you the powerful effect of Gayatri Mantra. As you all are aware - we are a company run on the teachings of Baba. In our business we also import certain item that can be claimed to be First Ever products for Baba. Earlier this year we mooted a project for the 80th Year of Advent. At that point of time our finacial position was not very bouyant. Due to many requests in our earlier projects and the present not very good financial position - we descided to broad base the current project. Devotees were accordingly informed and we received a handful of promises to support our project, but these promises were not enough to get us going. At this time - to help some devotees - I had to explore all what Swami has said on Gyatri. In this I read that Swami advocates a chanting of 10 malas of Gyatri at the Braham Mahurata for 24 or 40 days, without a break. I immedaitely began chanting Gyatri 10 Malas every day. I wanted to see the effect so started with 24 days. But, as the Gayatri Japa started it started having positive effect - enough for me to extend it to 40 days that finished on September 30, 2005. I wd have carried on for another 40 day, but since Navratras were there - i descided to do 40 days of Sai Gaytri from the first Thursday after Navratras. It was commenced and when later I checked the dates for 40 days, I was aghast to find that the 40th day will be 22 November, 2005. Sai Ram ~ Swamis hand in this was very clear. But, what effect - well - the project that seemed impossible has come to light and it is under production in UK. Gaytri potency infused the flow of funds - enough for the project to start. Artworks were approved - with the approved art works I was Blessed to visit a Baba shrine in North India and there the Artworks were blessed with showers of Vibuthi and Swami Blessed me with a japamala. Enough reward to encourage me to do Sai Gaytri for a life time - the balance of it. But I am a joker - and always enjoy the fun aspect in things - I did Gayatri first - Om Bhur bhuwa suvah, tatsavitur varanium, bhargo deevasya dheemahi (mark this), deeho yo na prachodayat. Then (and now) I am doing Sai Gayatri - which is Om Sai Ishawarya vidhmahi, sathya devaya dheemahi (mark), tanno sarvah prachadoyat. Now, what will you call a chant - Om Sai Ishawarya vidhmahi, satya devaya dheemahi, dheeyo yo na prachodayat. Will this sysnthisis be Saitri??? On doing the G or SG - we have since seeing the effect of first 40 days - infused all staff in our office to join for a Gyatri Japa at 12 Noon - every day. Yes the effect is positive. However, for the Sai prayer group - once the basic format was given - it should have been devotees individual lookout to add and subtract. Now, one mala - every poornima - that will be a drop of milk in your ocean of life. It should be one mala everyday and more on holidays and Sundays. Time should be within the brackets for Braham Mahurata - to everyones conveinence or 12 Noon. Whatever is done should be with POSITIVE THOUGHTS. For me I try my best to replay the 1985 tapes stored in my mind - of the loving work done under the direct guidance of Swami. Of cource mind will distract - you cannot stop that - but what you can do is to get it back on track ASAP. Sai Ram ~ Be Happy JP ~~~~~~~~~~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
