Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Dear friends, When Lord Vishnu felt "Ekoham Bahushyami"(wants to be many more from One), first of all a lotus came from his neval and He created Lord Brahma on it and gave him a job to create universe where a lot like Him can flourish. Brahmaji used His Tamas shakti and created Panch mahabhoots(5 essential factors of life), earth, sky, water, air and fire.Then the atoms of all those combened with oneanother to form Prakriti, the pysical bodies like human, animals, rivers, trees and so on. Now He used His Sat shakti and put a fraction of God in each of them and they became alive. Now there has to be principles to live life for each of them, which He gave in the form of 24 letters which according to grammer, falls in to Gayatri Chanda. So the mantra became popular as Gayatri mantra. Now to explain each letter of Gayatri mantra our seer sages wrote shlokas and a lot of shlokas got collected. When sage Krishnadvaipayan Vyas came, he thought, "This trenedous knowledge of Brhama is spreaded everywhere". So he compiled it in to four Vedas. From that he also became known as Ved Vyasa. Now he was still not satified that people will understand Vedas, so to put them in to practical forms he wrote Puranas and also other sages wrote Smruties and Darshan etc. Finally Ved Vyasa still felt that it was not enough. So he finally wrote Mahabharata. Thus all the scripture we have today is nothing but, merely the definition of Gayatri mantra. Interesting.
