📖English Translation
“We meditate upon that supreme, adorable radiance of the Divine Creator, the Sun of spiritual illumination. May that light inspire and illuminate our intellect and inner faculties.”
हम उस प्राणस्वरूप, दुःखनाशक, सुखस्वरूप, श्रेष्ठ, तेजस्वी, पापनाशक, देवस्वरूप परमात्मा को अपने अन्तःकरण में धारण करें। वह परमात्मा हमारी बुद्धि को सन्मार्ग में प्रेरित करे।
✨Spiritual Significance
Revealed to Sage Vishvamitra in the Rigveda (Mandala 3, Sukta 62, Verse 10), the Gayatri Mantra is hailed as the Mother of the Vedas. Chanted daily at sunrise, noon, and sunset (Sandhyavandanam), it awakens spiritual intelligence (Dhi), protects from negativity, and dispels the darkness of ignorance.
