Gayatri Mahima

[Guest guest]

Q.10. What is the relationship between Gayatri Mantra and other powers of God?

 

Ans. According to Savitri Upnishad, from the eternal omnipotence of God

represented by Om, seven streams of divine power, known as Vyahritis, emanate.

Three amongst these (Bhur , Bhuwaha and Swaha) form the prefix of Gayatri

Mantra. The Vyahritis are also known as the `Sheersha' (fountainhead) of

Gayatri. When Gayatri- the Primordial Power of the Divine, with Its totality of

energy systems, interacts with the five basic elements of material universe

(Panch Bhautik Prakriti - Savitri), complex, mysterious reactions are set into

motion. Spirituality identifies these five basic elements (of which the entire

material universe in its of solid, liquid and gaseous states and physical bodies

of animate systems are composed) as Prithvi, Jal, Vayu, Tej and Akash. In course

of interaction of the cosmic energies with these basic elements subtle sound

waves similar to those produced by twenty-four letters of Gayatri Mantra are

created. In the course of thousands of years of research, Indian spiritual

masters and yogis have evolved procedures for accessing divine energy by

" tuning " into these cosmic sound waves by chanting of Gayatri Mantra,

performance of Yagya and other associated procedures of Gayatri Sadhana.
