Shiva Gayatri

Today we will be learning the Gayatri Mantra for the Lord Shiva.

All of the deity Gayatri Mantras have a similar construction, where they start with the Sanskrit symbol OM, representing the ceation of the Universe, folowed by the name of the deity and the word Vidmahe, where we are calling the intelligence and gifts of the deity.


Then we pronounce a different name for the same deity, followed by the Word Dhimahi, where we invoke their wisdom as a sage, then we ask a manifestation (Tanno) of the deity to illumine our intellect (Prachodayat)

The mantra is:

OM TATPURUSHAYA VIDMAHE
MAHADEVAYA DHIMAHI
TANNO RUDRAH PRACHODAYAT

To learn how to pronounce this mantra, watch my YouTube video:
