Origin & Story

The Gayatri mantra of Goddess Saraswati · Traditional (Vedic)

Beyond the universal Gayatri Mantra, the Vedic tradition gives each great deity its own Gayatri — a prayer in the sacred Gayatri meter calling upon that deity to illumine the intellect. The Saraswati Gayatri Mantra invokes Goddess Saraswati, the giver of knowledge, wisdom, learning, speech and the arts, in the timeless pattern "Vidmahe… Dhimahi… Prachodayat" — "may we know, may we meditate, may the Lord inspire our minds." Chanted at the sandhya hours, it is a complete and gentle daily sadhana.
