Sri Gayatri Mantra (Meditation Style)

Amma chants Sri Gayatri Mantra in a style suitable for meditation. In the meditation style, Amma is accompanied only by the "sru ti," the soothing sound of the tanpura. Includes Sri Gayatri Mantra: "Om Bhur Bhuvas Suvaha, Tat Savitur Varenyam, Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi, Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat, Om Apo Jyotirasomrtam Brahma Bhur Bhuvas Suvar Om" Sri Gayatri Mantra is the essence of the Vedas and is considered the most powerful Vedic mantra. This recording contains the fourth line of Sri Gayatri Mantra, which is often kept secret and left out. Sri Gayatri Mantra purifies all sins and leads to complete spiritual illumination. This mantra can be recited as japa, used in silent meditation, and also recited three times before eating to purify the food. On the cd, Amma, chants the mantra and then there is silence and then she chants the mantra again to bring your mind back to the meditation.
