Apart from harvesting virtuous potentials, inner peace and content and thus enlightening the personal life, Gāyatrī Sādhanā enables prosperous growth of the devotee’s social life too. The refinement of body and mind (educed by Gāyatri) also adoms the external fronts of life with several boons. Because of his increased awareness and wisdom and prudent self-confidence, the sādhaka finds the same circumstances, the same obstacles as supporting and easily resolvable, which were adverse and challenging-earlier…
Changing the circumstances of life at will may not be feasible for every one every time. However, changing one’s approach and attitude to face the circumstances positively – is a natural sign of farsighted wisdom, Clash of one’s imaginations, expectations and the facts of life is the major cause of distress and struggle in varied forms. Wise men always accept the reality with grace and avoid unnecessary troubles, tussles and tensions as far as possible. This prudence is aroused in the sādhaka of Gayatrī and makes the movement of his life straight and smooth.
Happiness and delight are not generated by external means or materialistic possessions. These are indeed the relative reflections of one’s own mental status and attitude. The mind, which was not satisfied even by royal accessories, luxuries and power and was thirsty for more and more…, the same mind may sometime be inspired by a saintly preaching or inner voice to renounce every thing and begin to feel terrific bliss and comfort in sleeping on the earth in a forest, eating raw fruits and roots… This drastic change is simply a consequence of different emotional conditioning and attitude that hold the key to all sorrows and joys.
The triveni of Gayatrī also purifies the trigunas – the three eternal tendencies immanent in Nature. It exalts the satoguna and thereby induces spiritual illumination. It excels the force of rajoguna, which awakens the hidden potentials and brightens prosperous progress of life in the physical domains too. Elevated optimism, zeal, sagacity, presence of mind, efficient decision making, beatified voice, graceful personality and many other familiar and rare faculty are evidential manifestation of this effect. The refined tamoguṇa educes valor, fearlessness, endurance, chastity and courage to fight against injustice and exploitation, etc and enables the sādhaka march on the altruist path of social welfare.
With gradual progress of his dedicated sādhanā, the devotee of Gayatri subliminally undergoes a marvellous transmutation that consistently fosters the glory and growth of his prosperous and illumined life. Gāyatrī does not enshower golden coins or nectar, neither does it bestow boons in a magical way…. But, it certainly arouses and inspires such physical, mental and spiritual potentials and talents so that under no circumstances a devotee of Gayatrī faces any scarcity, fear or suffering… It is indeed a unique source of righteous progress and ever lasting glory and prosperity….
