Gayatri Mantra of Goddess Gayatri
68Gayatri Mantra of the Mother of all Mantras
Goddess Gayatri is worshipped as the mother of all Gods in Hindu Religion. She is the culmination of the Goddesses Lakshmi, Parvati and Saraswati. Gayathri is typically portrayed as seated on a red lotus, signifying wealth. The Gayatri Mantra (also referred to as Gayathri or Gaayathree Mantra) is one of the oldest and most powerful of Sanskrit Mantras. Gayathri is also a highly revered Mantra in Hinduism, second only to Om. This Mantra is a 24-syllable hymn from the Rig Veda and is a confluence of 24 Beej Aksharas. Chanting this mantra can bring happiness in life and shield from difficulties or miseries in life. It also removes all obstacles in life and gives increased wisdom and spiritual growth. The sound of Gayatri Mantra can lift the believer towards the higher self. Gayathri Mantra is also known as 'Guru Mantra' or 'Savitri Mantra' or 'Mother of all Mantras' and is useful for activating all Chakras.
Gayathri Mantra
"AUM BHOOR BHUWAH SWAHA, TAT SAVITUR VARENYAM
BHARGO DEVASAYA DHEEMAHI, DHIYO YO NAHA PRACHODAYAT."
Meaning of Gayathri Mantra
O God! You are Omnipresent, Omnipotent and Almighty.
You are all Light and all Knowledge and Bliss.
You are Destroyer of fear; you are Creator of this Universe.
You are the remover of pain and sorrow and the bestower of happiness.
You are the Greatest of all.
May we receive your supreme sin-destroying light,
May you guide our intellect in the right direction.
The maximum benefit of chanting is said to be obtained by chanting it 108 times. However, one may also chant this for 3, 9, or 18 times. This Mantra should be chanted at medium speed and each mantra chant should be immediately followed by the next chant. The Gayatri Mantra consists of twenty-four syllables which are said to positively affect all the chakras or energy centers in the human body. It is said that 24 Gods can be pleased by chanting this Mantra instead of chanting their individual mantras. Even hearing this mantra daily is known to have positive results in individuals. Feng Shui also recommends chanting or playing the Mantra daily to bring positive energy in house.

Dear Anamika,
please ,let me add some points in suppliment:
1. It is called Gayathri mantra because of the fact that it is composed in Gayathri metre(Chandas).
2 It is actually, the praise and prayer to Sun god-the source of all energy to the whole planet/solar system.
3Sun is prayed because,without him there cannot be any life or activity in the whole world.
Just see how scientific, and full of gratitude, the Indian mind is!
Thanks for your article.
Saurabh & Prasadji, Both of you are right. Thanks for the responses to this topic

Hello Anamika, of course Gayatri ia mother of all mantras. It purifies yourself if you chants it 11 times atleast.There is time specified for Gayatri mantra to get its special effect said by Santas. Time is before Sunrise i.e. 4am to 7am. (but after bathing)
You can chants Gayatri mantra with different combination of Om...Using 3 Om before startin middle and at last after mantraIt is good for students.and there are different combination such as 5 Om, 6 Om , 9 Om and 12 and 24 OmYou need go for multiple of 24 for chant as it is 24 word manta...For getting Siddhis of this mantra chantting is quite high as 24lakhs which generally santas do in forest..
