Welcome to Episode 53 of the Daily 3 Minute Mantra Podcast with Aaralyn Shiri! Today's mantra is the Gayatri Mantra.
There are 4 lines to the Gayatri mantra, so we will be doing it in 4 parts and then putting it all together. This melody is from my 30 Minute Mantra Collection called "Light." Nicholai Bachman, a Sanskrit scholar, says that the Gayatri Mantra is the "sacred mantra to the sun, which represents the light of knowledge." His translation is below:
Om Bhur Bhuvah Swaha
Tat Savitur Varenyam
Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi
Dhiyoyonah Prachodyat
Om. Earth. Atmosphere. Heavens. Let us contemplate the most excellent light of that radiant creator who may guide our thoughts.
So come back to the present moment and sing with me for 3 minutes. Humming is great, too! Just connect with your body and feel the vibrations. ~Aaralyn
