Gayatri Mahima

[Guest guest]

Q.10. How does one meditate on Savita?

 

Ans. Spiritual tradition in India considers Gayatri as the most powerful medium

for invocation of Savita, the omnipresent cosmic energy of God operating the

natural functions in the animate beings (flora and fauna) and in the inanimate

objects (e.g. as fission and fusion, magnetism and gravity in planets and

stars). Since this energy is manifestly (visibly) received all over this planet

through solar (and invisible stellar) radiations, it is logical to consider the

Sun as the representative of Savita. Experience shows that there is maximum

absorption of this energy at dawn.

 

While meditating on the rising Sun, the devotee has the advantage of interacting

with Savita with each of his/her three bodies. The physical body (Sthul Sharir)

is conceptualised as being purified by permeation of solar energy through the

millions of pores in the body. The process of conceptualisation as Savita

interacting with the subtle body (Sukcham sharir), purifies the " Ideosphere " and

deeply meditating about integrating one's individual identity with the cosmic

existence of Savita, the devotee interacts through the causal Body (Karan

Sharir). (Ref. Upasana Ke Do Charan - Jap Aur Dhyan).
