Goddess Gayathri is the mother of all the vedas. Gayathri Devi pervades everywhere. Gayathri consists of three deities, Gayathri, Savithri, and Saraswathi.

She is the Param Sakti, who is the sustaining Force that animates all life. She is the universal mother and the power of god manifestation. She is depicted as sitting on a lotus with the five faces . Because of this she also known as. Punchamukh. Her five faces epresenting the pancha pranas which is the five basic energy or life forms and the pancha thathwas and She has ten hands holding the various ayudas (weapons).
Gayathri Mantra is a sacred mantra comprising of praise, meditation, and prayer. At First the Divine is praised, then It is meditated upon in reverence, and finally an appeal is made to the Divine to awaken and strengthen the intellect, the discriminating faculty of man. Gayathri is a Mantra devi, the manifestation of all the beeja mantras. Similarly beeja mantras of different Gods, when recited together gives humans lot of positive energy and blessings of all the Gods. They are the vibrations, and represent the “call” of the soul. The presiding deities of the Gayathri mantra are Gayathri, Savithri and Saraswathi.
Gayathri Homam is an intensive way of chanting Gayathri mantra and initiates one to form a close bond with Goddess Gayathri Devi by creating a conscious flow of subtle energy within one’s body. This will empower various aspects of one’s personality – intelligence, beauty, speech, health, etc., which will naturally reflect in one’s actions and growth.
Gayathri Homam assists to ward off all misery, protect one from harm, bestow one with an incomparable inner strength which can only be experienced and cannot be explained, illuminate one’s intellect and gain of peace of mind. Besides, the effect of bad karma is also reduced and good karma facilitated.
It should be noted that apart from the personal benefit you gain, when one chants Gayathri, one’s family and everybody else also gain. Gayathri is the spirit behind the slogan of Sanatana Dharma “LokaSamastha Sukhino Bhomamitu” meaning let the all the people of this world be happy.
