Gayatri Mantra: Mantra is
a path to purification of mind.You can begin the mental purification by
practising a very powerful mantra known as Gayatri Mantra.This mantra is known
for its cleansing effects on the mind.The Gayatri Mantra must be pursued with great
reverence and devotion.The mantra is: Aum bhuur bhuvah svah Tat savitur
varennyam Bhargo devasya dhimahi Dhiyo yo naha pracodayaat The mantra provides
the practitioner with an opportunity to connect with the spirit and stay on the
path of realising the Divine light. Practise this mantra each morning after
conducting your purification ritual for the body. Gayatri Mantra brings the
mind to a very calm place, and when the mind is calm, it breaks down all
illusions, so it does not think, ‘I need this, or that, or do this or that’.At
that moment, you can talk to the spirit or god within. Everybody is spiritual,
but we allow the mind to take over.
