Gayatri mantra for planets can be recited for shanty purpose
if one is already intiated in moola gayatri mantra (given at the time of
Upanayana). This involves 3 lines in specific pronunciation pattern and can be
learnt personally under the able guidance of a guru. Priests who do not have
much concentration prefer this mantra to conduct shanty in the similar manner
as in beeja mantra japa.
Moola Gayatri mantra is:
Dhyana Om yaddevaye surpujatim
partaram samarthaye taratmikam punnagambujpushpnagvakaluu kashai
shukairchirtam!
Nityam dhyan samastdiptikarnam kalagniruddipnam
tatsanharkaram namami statam pataisanstham mukham!!
After dhyana do prayer with folded hands as given below:
Om Aho devi mahadevi sandhye vidye saraswati|
Ajre amre chaiv
brahamyonirnamoastu te ||
Om Devi Gayatri tavam brahmashapadivimukta bhav,
Vashisthadi shapa divimukta bhav, Vishvamitrashavpaidimukta
bhav||
Now do the viniyoga (application) of Gayatri mantra after
doing shapvinochan:
Viniyoga
Om karasya brahma rishirgayatri chanda parmatma devata, om
Bhurbhuva svariti mahavyahritinam parmesthi prajapatir rishir
gyatriushninustubhschandashi agni vayusurya devta Om tatsavituritasya
vishvamitrra rishi Gayatri chanda savita devta jape viniyoga||
Gayatri mantra for recital
Om bhurbhuswa tatsaviturvarenyam bhargo devasya dheemahi |
Dhiyo yohanah prachodayat||
In the sound file this mantra is repeated thrice word
–by-word with sufficient pauses for your practice. Listen to Gayatri mantra and
practice:
Whatever mantra or stotra you select kindly see it is easy
for you to recite. Engaging a priest to do shanti will not absolve you from
doing your own bit as remedial measure.
Benefits of Gayatri worship
Every sect and religion has elaborated the benefits of
divine worship. Even in Vedas there are different types of worships but Gayatri
worship has its own status. It is considered Vedic worship. When a devotee is
worshipping Gayatri, he is worshipping the Supreme Soul, Parbrahm.
One who worships Gayatri he is blessed with self confidence
which enables him to take right decision in his life. Right decisions are the
pillars of life which leads a person to salvation. One who worships Gayatri he
is never disturbed by evil souls, demons and ill effect of nine planets. It
enriches person will knowledge, enthusiasm and all his diseases are vanished.
The devotee of Gayatri never feels miserable in his life. It is said that one
who worships Gayatri never faces unnatural death. Problems such as cardiac
arrest, high/low blood pressure or any other disease which leads to unnatural
death are checked with the worship of Gayatri.
In the section astrology we have given Gayatri mantras from
