The Gayatri Mantra, “Om Bhur Bhuvah Swah,” is one of the most sacred mantras chanted by new yoga teacher during a saturday evening satsang at Yoga Vidya www.yoga-vidya.de in Bad Meinberg, Germany. It is a Vedic mantra and is said to contain the essence of the Vedas. The Gayatri Mantra is addressed to Savitri. Savitri is the radiant one, the luminous one. Savitri also stands for, one might say, greatness, and also for “driving force.” Savitri is also the name of the sun deity.

The mantra

Om Bhur Bhuvah Svaha
Tat Savitur Varenyam
Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi /
Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat //
