Gayatri is the eternal source of thy willpower that motivates the origin and all activities of the visible and invisible forms of Nature. The rivers, oceans, the earth, the moon, the sun and the gamut of other planets, from tiniest particle to the universal expansion…, everything is moving because of this cosmic driving force. It is the root of the impulse of life in the blossoming plants and trees that beautify Nature. The force of life in all living beings originates from its presence. Its superior presence in the human beings is reflected in the intellect, which enables the progressive development of the world and ascent of human life. In extraordinary cases, this sublime power is expressed as spiritually evolved pure, discerning intelligence – Ritambharā Pragyā. This enlightened wisdom helps one understand what is right and what is wrong and guides to choose the prudent path to the higher goals of life. This divine power mostly remains concealed in the inner cores of our minds. The determined endeavor of its arousal is termed sādhanā. The activation of this subliminal force of Gayatri in the soul links the human self with the divine light and powers of thee.
God is omnipresent in infinite dimensions. Thee is immanent in every movement, every activity, yet remains absolutely unperturbed and stable in the eternity…. The origin of Nature and the creation of the world are manifestation of thy wish to express thyself in multiple forms. The evolutionary impulse of thy will gave rise to this cosmic creation. Being the original source of the creation, existence and manifestation of Nature and the universe, this supreme power (Gāyatrī) was named Adi Sakti. The eternal cycle, order and harmony indwelling in the cosmic system and the laws of Nature and the existence and activities of the world are inspired and governed by the Adi Sakti Gayatri. This eternal presiding power is the cause of all energy and is subliminally governing the cosmic existence, expansion and activities towards the ultimate evolution….
Lord Brahma, the supreme creator is described in the scriptures to have attained the absolute knowledge of the universal creation and the limitless manifestations of Nature by the dedicated sādhanā of Adi Sakti Gayatri. This supramental knowledge and science constituted the Vedas. This is how Adi Śakti became the VedaMātā – the mother (origin) of Vedas. The Gayatri Mantra is regarded to enfold the essence, the seed of Vedas.
The divine powers governing the order of Nature also emanate from the Adi Sakti. As the same electricity flows in tube light, heater, refrigerator, cooler, etc and appears active in different forms, similarly, the singular force of Adi Sakti is reflected in Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva – as thy powers of eternal creation, execution and evolution. The other manifestations of thy impulse (deva śaktis) too are different expressions of the Adi Śakti. Thus, Adi Sakti being the absolute source of divine powers is also revered as DevaMātā. Beatitude of this devamātā endows a devoted sādhaka with divine virtues and vigor.
As the appearance of Nature and the world emanate from the infinite kernel of Adi Sakti, the latter is worshiped as ViswaMata – the mother of the world. A true devotee of this realization of the Adi Śakti, unifies his self-identity with global unity and lives with the altruist feeling of “vasudhaiva kutumkam” – the whole world is like his family to such a generous fellow.
