GAYATRI MANTRA
(Continued)
The Gayatri mantra protects us because
Gayatri is Annapurna, The Mother,
the Force that animates all life.
We do not therefore have to wail for food,
or for shelter when weare under the
protection of Annapurna, the Divine Mother.
Gayatri Mantra (the mother of the vedas),
the foremost mantra in hinduism and
hindu beliefs, inspires wisdom.
Its meaning is:
"May the Almighty God illuminate our
intellect to lead us along the righteous path".
The mantra is also a prayer to the
"giver of light and life" - the sun (savitur).
