"Gayatram pratha savanam"

[Guest guest]

Dear sirs,

As a imperfect person I may be wrong please correct

me & look at this issue objectively like in ashwamedha

we say a blessing for the doer as

Hiranyka shipu bawati,aadityasha rukhmaha does

not mean be a demon like hiraksha but achieve the

greatness of hiranyaksha in +ve qualities as a king.

 

Earlier there was a intresting mail on gayatri.A

few more beeja aaksharaas can make it more powerful.

I have also read that the using of beeja aakharaas

make certain mantraas more powerful than gayatri & the

measurement of mantra's potency is measured in terms

of gayatri(meter).(Blessed son of kaali does this

have any connection with gayatri chandas ?..). Even in

devi atharva shirsha there is a mention of "para

rajaas savadhoom".

It is also said in aruna prashna of Taitriya it is

said gayatri is "vayam devasya bhojanam.." food for

the devaas "sresthagum sarva dhatamam" it gives

greatness to everyone and gayatri is a spreading

light(diyo yonaha) when "sarvaan divo andhashaha".

 

In the post krishna era for saving parikshit maharaja

a person well versed in gaytri makes a palnt bloom

again by chanting the gaytri maha mantra when the

serphent king who is to bite the king tests the person

with his full venom on the plant.

 

So are we to conclude that gayatri is the most

powerful mantra protecting everyone & is never harmful

& ever beneficial & other mantraa may be powerful not

suiting everyone that is why even great seers has

recommeneded this to everyone & other mantras are only

given secretively to eligible person's only.comments

please.

with warm regards

shankar

Dear Mr Krishnamoorthy,

 

You are aware of the satvic, tamas and rajas well a mantra can have these

forms as well. When you add the bijas in the gayatri the chandah still doesn

't change however extra verses are added (it still is x amout of syllables

per verse but extra verses).

 

In terms of Satvic mantras they take a long time to master but are

consistant and there aren't any repercussions, with tamasic it is just

mediocre in nature having qualities of both rajasic and satvic. When you

have rajas mantras they cause great harm or take the sadhak to his/her

extremes but are very accelerative.

 

This is the same with bali, if you offer animal sacrifice you get

accelerative effect in your puja but you must ensure that the animal takes

birth in a higher womb and have the best of life and also do shrad for the

animal, then the sin of killing it for bali is wipped of.

 

Real sadhaks don't even have to offer animal bali but offer their evil

nature slowly to the goddess this process is known as the inner khanda manda

yoga, you either satiate a desire or kill it.

 

The Gayatri in her satwic nature is known as savitri, add 16 more bijas and

you get the maha gayatri and there are 22 different variations of this thus

people say there are 22 gayatries each of the major or early rishis have

mastered one of these mantras all other mantras resonate with one of the

gayatris.

 

When you add the 22 bijas you get the adya gayatri mantra which works with

your surya nadi that is why gayatri practitioners submerge themselves in

water. The adya gayatri basically gives you the fruits of saying a million

of so savitri mantras the bijas amplify the power.

 

This is the same with the mrityunjaya add om glaum hum kleem jum sah and

three other bijas which I will not mention and it becomes the maha

mrityunjaya then there is offcourse the adya mrityunjaya which instantly

makes the sadhak like shiva.

Namaste Sir!

 

Gayatri with beejas is called samputita gayatri or gayatri with

samput. Common samputs are om eim hreen kleem(chanter will be a great

leader of men), om shreem ( for wealth). in this case the bija is

added at the end of the mantra as an add-on and not as part of the

mantra, so this does not change the chandas.

 

Mother Gaayatri is the mother of the universe- in his satwic bhava

she is saraswati, in rajasic bhava she is vaishnavi and in her

tamasic bhava she is maheshwari. Mother's 5 heads have other

symbolisms- her white head is the embodiment of sadyajota aspect of

Lord Siva. Gayatri is truly the most sacred mantra-it is an

invocation to the divine light, light of the atman that resides in

all. It is prayer of protection for all the universe. Constant

chanting of the gayatri will protect one from past karma and the

effects of black magic. One who has attained siddhi in Gayatri mantra

can never be affected by any tantra, so say the knowledgeable. Each

of the 24 syllables in the Gayatri is an invocation to each deity, eg-

ta is for Ganesha and so on. It is the condensed repository of 70

million Saiva, Vaishnava, Shakta, Ganapatya and Saurya mantras. The 7

mahavyahrities in the long form of the Gayatri bring forth blessings

from all of the saptalokas.

 

Contrary to popular opinion Vishwamitra is not the seer of this

mantra- this story is largely pauranic in origin. Vishamitra is

another name for Brahma; surely something that is the essence of the

4 vedas could not have been created by a mortal at some point of time.

Savita is the deity of this mantra, savita represents the masculine

portion of this mantra. In this solar system, Savita is the planetary

logos, the ever resplecent surya.

 

This mantra is also sacred to Buddhists who call it the great mystic

formula. The primary effect of the mantra is on the aura of the body,

an adept can see the tejas in the aura of a gayatri sadhaka. As this

is the ultimate mantra, immediate effects are difficult to achieve

with this; but long term benefits are immense.

This is an absolutely correct conclusion. Every great modern saint

has spoken highly the gayatri. Is not really spiritual sadhana to get

rid of our fears,anger, lust, and covetousness; if that is your aim

then there is nothing higher than gayatri. My personal recommendation

is that to see effects this must be chanted 10,000 times daily; since

this is impossible to do for most people, it must be made a

subconscious habit so that japa automatically in sleep or what ever

activity you are engaged. Ajapa gayatri is also called ham-sa, japa

of which leads one directly to the breathless state. Of course it

would be nice to get the kick-ass version of Gayatri that our highly

learned member kalika-putra is talking about.

My respected mentor Sri Sri Maha Avatar Babaji is the knower of devi Gayatri

and her secrets. Please I am don't know much, what I know is child's

knowledge in contrast to the people I have learnt this off. I don't really

know much about the mother of the Vedas, but there are 22 different gayatri

forms with their respective mantras each called the gayatri mantra. That is

something that cannot be argued.

The gayatri has been washed down a lot, since the time of the rishis the

best devi mantra known to your common man is the kungika stotram, it bay far

does not have any competition since it is the goddess of all other mantras.

Namaste,

 

I'm not a scholar on Gayatri mantra (my master has only given my the short form

of Gayatri mantra), but this is what I read in "Tools for Tantra" by Harish

Johari:

Gayatri Mantra is composed of twenty-four sound-syllables. Each sound-syllable

is the energy of any one of the twenty-four gods, and Gayatri is a combination

of the enrgy of twenty-four gods or a combined force of twenty-four different

types of energy. Each energy is of a different nature and serves a different

purpose. The types of Gayatria Mantra are: 1) Ganesh Gayatri, 2) Vishnu Gayatri,

3) Shiva Gayatri, 4) Brahma Gayatri, 5) Ram Gayatri, 6) Krishna Gayatri, 7)

Indra Gayatri, 8) Hanuman Gayatri, 9) Surya Gayatri, 10) Chandra Gayatri, 11)

Yama Gayatri, 12) Varuna Gayatri, 13) Narayan Gayatri, 14) Narsingh Gayatri, 15)

Durga Gayatri, 16) Lakshmi Gayatri, 17) Radha Gayatri, 18) Sita Gayatri, 19)

Saraswati Gayatri, 20) Agni Gayatri, 21) Prithvi Gayatri, 22) Kam Gayatri, 23)

Hans Gayatri, 14) Hayagriv Gayatri.

 

Om Shanti,

Erik

Namaste Blessed son of Kalika!

 

Your knowledge is very deep and there arent many

people who can stand up to you. With a mentor like

Babaji, you are second to none.

All I know comes from reading some books here and

there. There are 22 gayatris(if not more)- these are

devata gayatris, the chandas alone is not the criteria

for calling it a gayatri(there are mantras which have

the gayatri chandas but are not called gayatri).

 

 

Could you share this kungika stotra with us? For a

such a powerful goddess, I have never heard of her

other than through you. It would also be nice if

somehow you could get the power-Gayatri from Babaji.

 

Aum Namasivaya
