It is believed that by chanting the Gayatri mantra and firmly establishing it in the mind, if you carry on your life and do the work that is ordained for you, your life will be full of happiness. The word "Gayatri" itself explains the reason for the existence of this mantra. It has its origin in the Sskrit phrase Gayantam Triyate iti, and refers to that mantra which rescues the chanter from all adverse situations that may lead to mortality. Goddess Gayatri is also called "Veda-Mata" or the Mother of the Vedas - Rig, Yajur, Saam and Atharva - because it is the very basis of the Vedas. It is the basis, the reality behind the experienced and the cognized universe. The Gayatri mantra is composed of a metre consisting of 24 syllables - generally arranged in a triplet of eight syllables each. Therefore, this particular meter (tripadhi) is also known as the Gayatri Meter or "Gayatri Chhanda."

"Enlightenment is a process of peeling back the many layers of the ego to experience your true radiant Infinite Self.  It is a process of opening to your innermost being, and as a result to the entire Universe!  Reaching towards the center of "you" you may find a spiritual cyclone.  Yet, keep diving, beyond that there is a deep stillness.  In the very essence of your being is where your true spiritual knowledge resides.  This is the Source of your Reality and Universe.  As you continuously rest deeper into the quiet peaceful still center in the heart of your being, you will eventually awaken to the Divine being you truly are.  The longer you can abide in this center, the faster you'll find yourself manifesting a rich life, full of depth, meaning, clarity, love and abundant with bliss."   ~Jafree Ozwald
