Gaayatri Mantra has over the ages proved to be a wonderful key to success in the lives
of hundreds of great Rishis and Yogis. According to ancient texts this Mantra was never
created by anyone, rather it was obtained directly from the universe by Brahma. It was by
virtue of the divine energy assimilated through this Mantra that Lord Brahma created life.
It is this mysterious Mantra that hides within it the power to link a human to his inner
bodies. Most people and scholars today associate Gaayatri Mantra with mental
upliftment. But these are just two of its many possibilities. If used properly this Mantra
can activate all the inner bodies and also all the Chakras of the Kundalini, thus bestowing
super human powers like telepathy, hypnotism, astral travelling and omniscience on an
individual.
The real Gaayatri Sadhana is really tough even for Yogis but its simpler forms in which
the Mantra is suffixed with special Beej Mantras can help even a worldly man activate
special faculties or capabilities. Here three very special Sadhanas are being elucidated.
Sharp Intellect
The deity worshipped in Gaayatri Mantra is Savita or Sun, hence the best day to do this
ritual is Sunday. Through this particular practice one can awaken all mental faculties,
and gain a sharp intellect and a photographic memory. Even a child can be encouraged to
try this practice for he can thus go on to excel in his studies and build an excellent career
promising fame, position and acclaim.
Early morning before sunrise have a bath and dress in yellow robes. Fill a copper tumbler
with water and in it drop a few rice grains and flower petals. Stand facing the morning
sun. Raise the tumbler to heart level and tilt it forward allowing the water to flow onto the
ground gently. At the same time chant the Mantra
