Thank you Onaji! Im in SOUND & WATER MAGIC!! Heres Onas latest 30 day mantra challenge. After searching for a good video of a different, favourite mantra, this one came my way. Find a quiet space. Regular morning mantra practice can be a great way to set the course for your day. FULL SCREEN it. ...as we listen to this, each of our cells is similarly dancing! We associate sound most closely with our ears but all of the water in our body responds this way to sound, and with the same immediacy. The Gayatri Mantra is said to be the oldest and most powerful of mantras, purifying the person chanting it as well as the listener. ...this mantra can be seen as connected to Sun Worship, Yoga, Tantra and Mother Goddess. MEANING: We meditate on the glory of that Being who has produced this universe; may [it] enlighten our minds. Its recitation is traditionally preceded by oṃ and the formula bhūr bhuvaḥ svaḥ, known as the mahāvyāhṛti (great (mystical) utterance). It is made up of three (mystical) utterances: Bhooh, Bhuvah and Svah. The three utterances are taken as the names of three worlds:- Bhooh: the terrestrial, Svah: celestial and Bhuvah: the world connecting terrestrial to celestial. These are the names of the first three of the seven vyāhṛti or higher worlds of Hindu cosmology. From a meditational point of view, Bhooh, Bhuvah, Svah are mystically interpreted as the three degrees/levels of depths of meditation: Conscious, Semi-conscious and the Unconscious. The traditional interpretation of the Mantra: Line1: tát(tasya) = of that; savitúr(savituh) = of Savita (the all-inspiring, all-creating one); váreṇ(i)yaṃ = the most meditation-worthy, the most knowable and hence the most relishable; Line2: bhárgo(bhargah) = self-luminous radiance, devásya = of the divine; dhīmahi = We meditate upon; Line3:dhíyo(dhiyah) = activities, properties and intellect; yó(yah) = which; naḥ = our; pracodáyāt = inspires; This can be put into English as We meditate upon that most meditation-worthy, the most knowable and hence the most relishable self-luminous radiance (in the form of Parabrahman) of the divine entity called Savita (the all-inspiring, all-creating one), which inspires our activities, properties and intellect.
