[Guest guest]

Dear friend,

 

During brahma muhurtha gayathri has no rules to follow

... this is as far as I know ... in other times of

course it should not be done at will ! this is

irrespective of the other mantras in the

sandhyavandanam process .. (however some say that you

should not pronounce it loudly but should internalize

the mantra) ...

 

I agree that it needs Guru upadesa ...

 

Ohm might be the energy .. but what confuses me is

when you say "This pranava mantra gave birth to `Sri

Gayatri'" ... there is no question that gayathri is

the highest mantra (Krisha asserts "In mantras I am

like the Gayathri") ... anyhow its an addition to my

knowledge should this be true ...

 

In any case Savitha the presiding diety of the mantra

is supposed to be the highest and purest form of

energy ... from which energy radiates to all the

cosmos ... in that sense when you pick up any mantra

for any other godess you can infer that the energy is

maybe indirectly radiated from Gayathri as well ..

 

However otherwise, it's confusing when you say it's

the mother of all mantras and all mantras are born

from it ....

 

Take care,

Surya.
