Because the power of the Aluna Mirror Worlds is linked to the Hindu Gods we say Hindu mantras even if we are not Hindu. The Gayatri mantra is the most sacred of all of them. I say it many times a day. It honors the Gods and calls for protection from evil.
Here is my recording of the matra:
Honoring the Gods (Gayatri) – Richard Tyler and Stuart Wide
The Words:
Om Bhur Buvaha Suvaha,
Thath Savithur Varenyam,
Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi,
Dhiyo Yonaha Prachodayath
The mantra says:
We contemplate the glory of Light illuminating the three worlds: gross, subtle, and causal.
I am that vivifying power, love, radiant illumination, and divine grace of universal intelligence.
We pray for the divine light to illumine our minds.
The individual words mean:
Om: The primeval sound
Bhur: the physical world
Bhuvah: the mental world
Suvah: the celestial, spiritual world
Thath: That; God; transcendental Paramatma
Savithur: the Sun, Creator, Preserver
Varenyam: most adorable, enchanting
Bhargo: lustre, effulgence
Devasya: resplendent, supreme Lord
Dheemahi: we meditate upon
Dhiyo: the intellect, understanding
Yo: May this light
Nah: our
Prachodayath: enlighten, guide, inspire
