Gayatri Mantra Bestowal

Recently I was given a sun-ball by the sun deity of the current sun planet which sustains this earthly place and its inhabitants.

When the sun ball first entered the top of the subtle head, it went downward through the neck, then through the trunk and then it split into two orbs and went through the thighs, legs and into the ankles, where each glowed. These remained there for two days.

After that some sun energy was pelted against the right side of the subtle head. It fractured that right side into fragment-pixels which fell away. The fracturing produced no sensation. It was as if there was a bodiless formless condition on that side of the subtle head.

When it is complete, this disintegration of the subtle body, causes the ascetic to move beyond the Swarga heavenly world, and move up beyond Siddhaloka to enter the Satyaloka and such places where one uses a supernatural body which is higher than the subtle body which we current endure in astral projections and lucid dreams.

Some yogis after the completion of this fragmentation, or break-up of their subtle forms, enter what is called the bodiless state. Some stay there for a time, for millions of years while others go to even higher zones.

At some stage, a student must take assistance from the sun deity. This is why the original and most frequently used gayatri mantra is the glorification and recognition of the assistance rendered to the ascetic by Savitur, the sun-god. The fact remains that the physical and subtle bodies which we currently use, are sustained by energy from the sun. There is no way for such bodies to exist in sentiency without that energy. The sun deity is the lord of this situation, the functional and immediate existential godFather.

There are many persons who recite the Savitur gayatri mantra but it is ineffective for them because either they did not get it from the right agent or they were not directly inspired by the sun-god. As the story goes, Yajnavalkya got in a quarrel with his guru Vaishampayana (Vai-shum-pai-a-nuh). When the guru told the student to return the teachings of the Yajur Veda forthwith, the student, Yajnavalkya, vomited the techniques and information. It was then eaten by some other disciples, who for the filthy task of eating vomit, assumed the form of birds (tittiri) and subsequently composed it as the Taittiriya Upanishad.

Yajnavalka for his part, being condemned by his spiritual teacher, went to perform austerities. He was so proficient, that the sun-god noticed. This deity directly instructed Savitur gayatri mantra and other Vedic sounds and information to Yajnavalkya.

Unless one is connected to Yajnavalka or to the sun god or to their agent, one cannot use the mantra effectively. But there is another important thing to consider which is that one should not request the mantra from a guru or deity. This is because if one is fated to get the mantra, it will be inspired into one’s mind or one will be introduced to it and its usage by the deity or yogaGuru. There is no need to request this mantra. One should not get the idea that one should use this mantra.

It is not true that gurus own mantras, unless those mantras pertain to their names and vibrations only. Mantras of deities are not owned by a guru. He is not authorized by a deity to divulge the mantra to anyone merely because that person is follower or faithful attendant. The deity must himself/herself want to bestow the mantra for it to be effective. In other words, the desire to give the mantra should be that of the deity not that of the guru. The student should not request a mantra or pester the guru to get one from him. If the deity wants to give the mantra even if the guru does not transmit it to the student, the deity will himself give it just as in the case of Yajnavalka who was rejected by his guru and was told to return all training. Still, he was blessed by the deity.

A guru is not the indispensable aspect in giving mantras. It is the deity who is the feature. If a guru is unwilling to give it, then if the deity wants the disciple to have it, the deity will send another agent or will render it directly into the mind of the disciple.

One cannot from this end of existence puncture one’s way into the realm of any substantial deity like the sun-god. One has to be invited into their realms. They cannot invite one by coming under one’s influence or desire. It simply does not manifest like that.

If one got the gayatri mantra from someone and it is not effective to link one with the sun deity, that means that the person who awarded the mantra was not properly connected with the deity. And in fact, no guru can give the mantra effectively if he is not inspired to do so.
