Gayatri Mantra

[Once]

Om Bhur, Om Bhuvah, Om Svahah, Om Mahah, Om Janah, Om Tapah, Om Satyam Om, Avahayami, Avahayami, Avahayami.

Earth, Sky, Creation, Great, People, Spiritual Penance, Truth, we call upon you, we call upon you, we call upon you.

[Thrice]

Om Bhur Bhuvah Svahah

Mother Earth, Father Sky, who creates us

Om Tat Savitur Varenyam

The enlightening adorable ones

Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi

Radiate your divine illumination

Dhiyo Yonah Prachodayat

Awaken our minds

[Once]

Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti… Om

Let there be Peace, Peace, Peace (at the 3 levels of our dimensions)… manifested through the sound of creation.

All beings live within the 3 planes of their dimension of Existence, the Megacosmic, the Macrocosmic and the Microcosmic. That is why the saying “As Above, So Below”. This is because truth reflects at all levels of existence. If you tune into a particular level correctly, you will read complete truth in its format, which is the same truth that is there at the other levels too.

When you recite the 2nd para of the Gayatri Mantra thrice, the first invocation is for the Megacosmic level because you are calling for awakening from the higher realms, which is then passing into your Macrocosmic level and then into your Microcosmic level.

At the Megacosmic level:

Om Bhur Bhuvah Svahah

Mother Earth, Father Sky, who create us

Om Tat Savitur Varenyam

The all containing adorable ones

Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi

Radiate your divine illumination

Dhiyo Yonah Prachodayat

Awaken my cosmic self

At the Macrocosmic level:

Om Bhur Bhuvah Svahah

My Shakti energy, my Shiva energy, which create my energy body

Om Tat Savitur Varenyam

That all feeling lovable one

Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi

Radiate your experiential illumination

Dhiyo Yonah Prachodayat

Awaken my mind

At the Microcosmic level:

Om Bhur Bhuvah Svahah

Female sex organ, male sex organ, that create the physical body

Om Tat Savitur Varenyam

That physical temple of the divine

Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi

Speak your truths to me

Dhiyo Yonah Prachodayat

Awaken all my perceptions at the cellular level

      Good Morning Nancy, I chanted the Gayatri Mantra over and over as a lubllay to sooth both myself and my little babe when he was first diagnosed with Type I Diabetes. He was so confused about all of the needles and the hospital and he didn’t understand why we were staying and his father and brother were leaving. I had just recently learned the chant and rocked him to sleep singing the words softly over and over. I have been a big fan of the Moola Mantra lately: Om Sat Chit Ananda Parabrahma Purushothama Paramatma Sri Bhagavathi Sametha Sri Bhagavathe Namaha. Namaste, Amy

      This mantra reminds me of how we are all connected to the earth, the sky, and heaven. We as humans act as if our bodies are not from the earth, made of matter, atoms, cells, chemicals. That our souls are not made from whispery words and thoughts of spirit from another world, the world beyond that not all can see. Yoga connects (yokes) me to both pieces of body and soul, earth and sky. The threads of the connection, the connective tissue, binding thoughts is the unseen, precious and beautiful God/Higher Power who exists in both earth and heaven, and in each and every one of us.

  3. Super!! good explanation really. i will start reading this now onwards. Even i heard somewhere that Gayathri mantram should not be chanted by Women but not have a source at the moment saying that. let me google out and ask few more friends and reply.

      Thank you Liliepyankellu. Whoever says Gayatri Mantra cannot be chanted by someone , is not being nourished by God’s Light or Love, themselves. You know the complete meaning now and you know this is true. Blessings, Darryl

  4. yes, gayatri mantra has best benefit when chanted in mind, facing sun god in the morning..
