Gayatri Jayanti on Shravana Purnima
(09.08.2025)
-Rohit Kumar Parmar [1]
Gayatri Jayanti is observed as the birth anniversary of Goddess Gayatri, the Goddess of Veda, also known as Veda Mata.
Goddess Gayatri is worshipped as the Goddess of Hindu Trimurti. She is considered as the mother of all Gods and an embodiment of Goddesses Saraswati, Parvati and Lakshmi.
Indians, especially in Southern parts of India, observe Gayatri Jayanti on Shravana Purnima. Devotees observe Gayatri Jayanti by performing special prayers to Gayatri Mata and by repeatedly chanting Gayatri Mantra, which is dedicated to सूर्य भगवान (Surya Bhagwan, Sun God).
गायत्री मंत्र
ॐ भूर्भुवः स्वः तत्सवितुर्वरेण्यं भर्गो देवस्य धीमहि धियो यो नः प्रचोदयात्,
Om Bhur Bhuvah Swaha, Tat Savitur Varenyam, Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi, Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat
Meaning of gayatri mantra
उस प्राण स्वरूप, दुःखनाशक, सुखस्वरूप, श्रेष्ठ, तेजस्वी, पापनाशक, देवस्वरूप परमात्मा को हम अंतःकरण में धारण करें। वह परमात्मा हमारी बुद्धि को सन्मार्ग में प्रेरित करे।
अर्थात् ' सृष्टिकर्ता प्रकाशमान परमात्मा के प्रसिद्ध पवणीय तेज का (हम) ध्यान करते हैं, वे परमात्मा हमारी बुद्धि को (सत् की ओर) प्रेरित करें।
