Gayatri Mantra
Gayatri Mantra is most
universal, non-personal, a holy prayer, which can be used by any person
belonging to any country, irrespective of race, religion or sex. Persons who
have practiced have a lot of faith in it. Such practitioners have devoted
themselves to Gayatri for ever and reached the stage of salvation. Our revered
saints have done research on Gayatri which was very much compiled in Purans, sanhitas and other Hindu
religious classics.
During Gayatri sadhana Jyestha, Asadh, Bhadrapad, Pusha and Malmasa; Tuesday, Saturday; Vayatipat, and vaidarti yoga; ashtami,
navmi, chaturthi, trodashi, chaturdashi, Amavasya, pardosh, night, yam, agni, Rudra, sarp, inder, vasu, shravan,
birth constellation and Aries, Cancer, Taurus, Aquarius, and Capricorn all are
prohibited. The Gayatri worship should be started during Poornima in the Hora of Moon.
Gayatri mantra for planets
can be recited for shanty purpose if one is already initiated in moola gayatri
mantra (given at the time of Upanayana). This involves 3 lines in specific
pronunciation pattern and can be learnt personally under the able guidance of a
guru. Priests who do not have much concentration prefer this mantra to conduct
shanty in the similar manner as in beeja mantra japa.
Moola
Gayatri mantra is:
Dhyana
Om
yaddevaye surpujatim partaram samarthaye taratmikam punnagambujpushpnagvakaluu
kashai shukairchirtam
Nityam
dhyan samastdiptikarnam kalagniruddipnam tatsanharkaram namami statam
patalsanstham mukham
After dhyana do prayer with folded hands as given below:
Om
Aho devi mahadevi sandhye vidye saraswati
Ajre
amre chaiv brahamyonirnamoastu te
Om
Devi Gayatri tavam brahmashapadivimukta
bhav,
Vashisthadi shapa divimukta bhav,
Vishvamitrashavpaidimukta
bhav
Now do the viniyoga (application) of Gayatri mantra
after doing shapvinochan:
Viniyoga
Om
karasya brahma rishirgayatri chanda parmatma devata, om Bhurbhuva svariti
mahavyahritinam parmesthi prajapatir rishir
Gayatriushninustubhschandashi
agni vayusurya devta
Om
tatsavituritasya vishvamitra rishir Gayatri chanda savita devta jape viniyoga
||Gayatri
mantra for recital||
Om
bhurbhuswa tatsaviturvarenyam bhargo devasya dheemahi dhiyo yohanh prachodayat
In the sound file this
mantra is repeated thrice word-by-word with sufficient pauses for your
practice. Listen to Gayatri mantra and practice:
Whatever mantra or stotra
you select kindly see it is easy for you to recite. Engaging a priest to do
shanty will not absolve you from doing your own bit as remedial measure.
