Gayatri Mantra

Gayatri Mantra is considered to be the main and best mantra of Hindus. It is also known as Savitri mantra. Gayatri mantra finds praise in many Hindu scriptures like Bhagwat Gita, Chhandogya upnishad, Atharva veda etc. The mantra is believed to be the mother of all the mantras. The recital of Gayatri mantra leads to the growth in intelligence and also gets rid of all the sorrows and pains.

There is no other mantra like Gayatri mantra in all the four Vedas. The Vedas, yagna, charity and penance are smaller than the power of Gayatri mantra - Rishi Vishwamitra
