Gayatri Mantra is the mother of all mantras. The glorious Gayatri (Gayathri Mantra) is an impregnable spiritual armor that protects the worshipper and shows him the brightest light of the greatest spiritual revelation. That is the purpose and power of Gayatri mantra. In Sanathana Dharma (popularly known as Hinduism, meaning religion found on the other side of river ‘indus’) Supreme impersonal Godhead is the parabrahman, the Matha (mother) is the transcendental consciousness and is the Para Shakthi (power). This Para Shakthi is known as Gayatri and is the very cause of all that was, all that is and everything that will be of existence. When she manifested the trigunas or the three qualities: the sattva (poise, pure), rajas (passion) and tamas (stupor), these three qualities possessing the Supreme consciousness that is parabrahman, manifested into the world as Brahma, Vishnu and Siva. Brahma took over Sattvaguna, Vishnu absorbed Rajoguna and Siva the Tamoguna. Brahma, Vishnu and Siva gained the powers of creation, preservation and destruction through their worship of the Divine Mother Gayatri by chanting Gayatri Maha Mantra. Worship of Gayatri Devi can even confer the powers of the trimurthis. That is the power the Gayatri Mantra, Greatest Mantra of all.
