#Gayatri Mantra

[ar0ac3]

One of my favorite moments from atsv is when Pavitr is hanging out with Gayatri and his Spidey-Sense kicks in because it knows that Pavitr will be damaged (emotionally or physically, probably both) if her dad catches them

Monday Morning Vedic Mantra Meditation Gayatri Mantra From Darkness towards Divine Light गायत्री मंत्र तमस से र...

[kkdas]

I made this little video some years ago to help a friend with the pronunciation of this holy mantra. I later added it to my YouTube channel. I hope you enjoy. Hari Om Tat Sat!

[rastrbl]

pavitr headcannons !

don’t know his canon birthday, but i see pav as a sag sun, cancer moon, pisces rising, sag mercury, libra venus, and cancer mars

he really loves astrology but he uses vedic astrology instead of tropical

everytime he feels like he’s made a new friend or feels comfortable with someone, he IMMEDIATELY asks for the birth chart

he really loves video games, especially sonic

his fave character is amy :)

hobie and pavitr play any and every decision based game ever made (life is strange, until dawn, undertale, etc.)

gwen and pav have a minecraft world where they allow NO ONE else to hop into (they’re very territorial over this)

they build like these extravagant houses from the ground up

literally they built a skyscraper from the ground up in creative ?!

aside from this one server, pavitr mainly plays in survival with gayatri, miles, and hobie whenever he feels up to it

aside from the classics he grew up with, he really likes kpop and indie music

his ults are itzy, twice, and nct dream convince me otherwise

he doesn’t really listen to many soloists, but likes chungha, taemin, and sunmi

has definitely learned the wannabe choreo and flaunts that he can do the ryujin shoulder move CONSTANTLY 😭😭😭

it’ll be mid conversation and he just starts doing the shoulder move

outside of kpop though, he really likes clairo, alex sloane, hojean, niki, the nbhd, conan gray, hemlocke springs, and other artists in this soundscape

he gets so excited when he finds south asian indie artists

his love language is definitely acts of service and physical touch

this shows through a lot with the amount of times he’s cooked his cultural foods and baked pastries for the people in his life

he loves seeing people’s satisfaction after eating his food

gwen has definitely said some of his dishes were too spicy tho 😭😭

he accommodates her by making a smaller, less spicy dish for her whenever he cooks for gwen

aside from chai, he’s really good at making different teas and coffee

lattes, americanos, macchiatos, green tea, chamomile, you name it, pav can make it !

because of this, he’s been dubbed the group’s chef and barista

miles LOVES whenever pavitr decides to crash in his dimension because of his chai and green tea specifically

another way pavitr shows his love is by playing with peoples hair

if you let him, he’s just always trying to braid hair or just combing through it with his fingers

or with people with afro textured hair like miles, he’s always putting it in cornrows after he watched many tutorials on it

playing with gayatri’s hair is always the most relaxing to him tho

speaking of him and gayatri, they’re like couple of the year to his friend group in the spider society

“y’all are so cute, it’s kind of gross”

“but you and miles aren’t gross?”

“pav, we aren’t a couple”

“with the way y’all stare at each other, might as well be”

him and gayatri love going on dates where they’re in nature

picnics, hiking trails, wherever

if it’s a rainy day, they love watching studio ghibli movies or playing video games together

he still hasn’t mustered up the courage to tell gayatri he’s spiderman

sometimes his spiderman duties makes him miss plans with gayatri and he sometimes feels really terrible about it

he makes it up to her by baking her favorite pastries and doing her favorite things with her :)

he also likes making bracelets, necklaces, and rings for her

he got into jewelry making because of hobie teaching him

when him and miles get closer, he starts putting all the drawings miles gives him on his wall

he’s very sentimental with all the things his friends gives him

The Gayatri Mantra.

„The soul of all is one soul, and the truth is one truth, under whatever religion it is hidden.“ ~ Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

[anokha-swad]

ॐ तत्पुरुषाय विद्महे महादेवाय धीमहि तन्नो रुद्रः प्रचोदयात्॥

Aum Bhur Bhuvah Swaha Aum Tadpurushaaya Vidvamahe, Mahadevaaya Dheemahi Tanno Rudra Prachodayaat

Aum. Let us invoke the three realms of earth (-bhur), wind (-bhuvah) and fire (-swaha). Aum. Let us invoke the superlative (-tad) male (-purusha) and omniscient lord (-vidvamahe). Let us meditate and focus upon (-dheemahi) the supreme (-maha) lord (-devaaya). Let us ask Shiva (-rudra) to provide us inspiration and guidance (-prachodayaat) in our spiritual journeys.

[blessed1neha]

Gayatri Mantras for different Deities

According to Vedas there is only one prayer/mantra which should be recited - it is known as the Gāyatri Mantra.

Oṃ bhūr bhuvaḥ suvaḥ |

Tat savitur vareṇyaṃ |

Bhargo devasya dhīmahi |

dhīyo yo naḥ pracodayāt ||

Which means:-

“We meditate upon the Adorable Light (i.e. the Sun) of the Supreme Being who has projected this entire universe into being. May That One impel our minds towards enlightenment.”

Variant readings:

May That One enlighten our intellects.

May That One guide our mind, speech and actions.

This is the Vedic version, but there are hundreds of other versions pertaining to each and every aspect of the Supreme Being - for the sake of the devotees who prefer NAME and FORM (nāma-rūpa).

Some of these alternative Gāyatris are found in the Upaniṣads (Mahā Nārāyaṇa Upaṇiṣad) but most are from the Tantras.

So if you are a devotee of any particular deity you may choose the gāyatri of that Deity and repeat and meditate upon it only.

i’m old fashioned  

Moving to Mumbattan was a huge change. With your Dad in the Navy SEALS you’d gotten used to moving around frequently, never in one place for too long, however, this station seemed like it would last longer than the others. It was scary and you were scared shitless, in a strange new place that seemed to be plagued with bumper-to-bumper traffic, the first thing on your mind was how people would receive you. Sure you’d lived in many places, however not all of them were as accepting of Black girls as they could be. You’d fried your hair down to the roots, essentially forcing yourself to press it every Sunday before the new week of school, and then decided to big chop. Like, big chop, full send, and shave all your hair off. Was it the best choice to shave it all off in a predominantly white Deep South? Fuck no. But it was the push you needed. That was two or three years ago, and your hair had grown back, thick, full, bouncy, and kinky, growing to just under your triple-pierced ears. 

This move felt different though. You were much more jittery. 

“Dad, my stomach hurts, do I have to go today? Can’t I start tomorrow?” 

“Listen soldier, if you’re gonna do something, do it scared,” 

“But Dad–” 

“No buts kiddo, you have your uniform all ironed out?” 

“Yes, sir,” 

“And starched?” 

“Oh jeez, Dad do you want me to look like an old lady?” 

“See, you’re sassy still. You’re fine,” 

“But–” 

“What’s this about?” 

“What if they don’t like my hair?” 

“Your hair looks fine,” 

“Yeah to you! You’re bald,” 

“Why wouldn’t they like your hair?” 

“Cus it’s… different,” 

“I got clippers in the bathroom…” 

“Nevermind,” 

Still terrified, and anxiously gulping down the last dregs of orange juice, you pull off your bonnet and carefully inspect the lemonade braids, intricately patterned into a heart on either side of your head. Like Beyonce, you thought. Pulling the bonnet back onto your head, you grab the Mumbattan Visions Academy uniform from the hook on the bedroom door. Carefully selecting a pair of shoes, you go with navy blue retro space jams you got on a raffle, and you reappear at the bedroom mirror. Once again tugging off your bonnet, you frown at the untamed baby hairs framing your hairline. Applying a thin layer of Vaseline and sunscreen, you delicately lay down your baby hairs and fluff your eyelashes with mascara. 

After what felt like hours of traffic, you arrive on campus. Horrified, you sink down in the passenger seat under your Dad’s laser glare. 

“Isn’t there another school?” 

“No. Go,” 

“But–” 

“Now.” 

No room for arguments. You knew better.  

“Thai food for dinner?” 

“Yeah, Dad.” You smile weakly. “Thai food sounds good.” 

“Do it scared, kid, do it scared.” 

And then he’s off. 

“Hi!” 

Jumping out of your skin you turn around, eyes wide with a mixture of fright and nerves

“I’m Gayatri!” she says, sticking her hand out and beaming. 

“Cool piercings,” 

“Thanks, yours too!” 

Half self-conscious, half flattered, you grab your earlobes and blush. 

“Are you new here?” 

“Yeah,” 

“Welcome,” 

“Thanks,” 

“You’re not one for talking, are you? That’s okay, I talk plenty.” 

Eagerly she snatches your hand and pulls you through the crowd of students, waving every so often. 

“So, do you have your schedule?” 

Nodding your head and mumbling a yeah you unfold the sheet of paper in the pocket of your polo skirt. 

“Nice, we have almost every class together, except these three, but don’t worry, my friend Pavitr has these classes with you. He’s cool don’t worry,” She says, almost motherly, and begins standing on her tiptoes trying to survey the crowd. Confused, you mirror her movements, your toe caps slightly poking your pinky toes. She frantically starts to wave, you don’t mirror this movement. 

“Pav! Over here!” 

She practically bellows across the courtyard, the other students paying absolutely no attention to her abrupt screaming. A tall-ish boy begins to weave through the crowd, gently ‘excuse me’-ing his way through the crowd. 

“Pav, this is my new best friend,” 

“Replacing me already?” 

“Oh, shut up,” 

“Hi, I’m Pavitr.” 

And the connection is almost instant. 

but i don’t mind it  

“Pav,” you mumble from under him, his body weight fully on top of you as you watch an old Bollywood movie he swears by. “My dad’s gonna be home soon.” 

“Just five more minutes, Chittu,” 

“You’ve never met a bald military man, have you?”  

“He can’t be that bad,” 

“Oh, my–” 

You’re interrupted by the heavy steps, no doubt the hefty combat boots your father wears, coming down the hallway to the apartment. 

“Pav, get off!” you whisper, shoving him off you, pulling him you're the half-moved-in bedroom the both of you tripping over empty boxes. 

“Nice shoe collection,” 

“Thanks,” you whisper-shout, pulling him closer to your bay window, fighting to get the fire-escape window open.

“I’m home!” Your father’s voice booms through the apartment. Scrambling with the window and finally getting it open, you frantically motion for him to climb out the fire escape, fear pulsing through your veins. 

“Meri Jaan, why don’t you just introduce me to your dad?” he whispers pointedly, admittedly feeling a bit ashamed of sneaking around. But it wasn’t like the two of you were official yet, he’ll officially officially ask you out soon in a way to appease your father. No matter how difficult

“As much as I’d like to, it doesn’t quite work like that Babycakes,” 

He cocks his head to the side, slightly pausing, at the use of the word ‘babycakes’. 

“Southern thing, tell you about it later, get out,” you motion, still scared out of your mind, brain moving at a thousand miles per second, heart beating out of your chest. “Promise,” 

“[NAME],” your father bellows 

“Coming, Daddy!” you call back “Out.” 

This time, you take no prisoners and gently push him out onto the fire escape. As he climbs down he pauses, pouting as you halfway close the window. Begrudgingly, you lean out and peck a quick kiss onto his lips, and then he nimbly, and incredibly quickly climbs down the fire escape.  

thats how i want to be  

“...And Mr, er, Lieutenant Jean-Baptiste, with your blessing, I would really like for your daughter to be my girlfriend.” 

Your father sighs, the vein in the center of his forehead pronounced, and rubs his eyes. 

“Prabahakar, you do realize that I am still in uniform?” This was entirely true, his medals proudly pinned to the breast pocket of his blue fatigues, your last names carefully etched into his left breast pocket, feet still clad in heavy combat boots. 

“Daddy–” 

“Hush, girl. Prabahakar?” 

“Yes sir,” 

“And I am tired,” 

“Yes, sir, I can’t even imagine,” 

“You cannot even begin to imagine,” he menacingly places both hands on the round kitchen table, standing. He has a good two feet on Pav.

He gulps. 

Your father sighs again, eyes darting between you.  

“You understand how important my daughter is to me?” 

“Yes, Lieutenant,” 

“What are your intentions with my daughter?” 

“I–” 

“Because let me find out she’s cooking a little you in her oven, it will not be a good day for you Prabahakar, I promise,” 

“Daddy–” 

“Hush. Do you understand me?” 

Pav gulps again, clearly terrified to have gone down this route of asking permission, though he knew for a fact telling would have been worse. 

“Yes, Lieutenant,” 

Your father sighs warily, taking a look at your wide and hopeful eyes, then a glance at the sheer anxiety rolling off of Pavitr’s body. Breathing heavily, he rubs his cheeks. Sweet defeat.

“Her curfew during the week is 21:30. Strictly, no foolishness. On weekends I want her back exactly at 22:30. No ifs ands or buts.” 

You smile something terrible and rush to hug your father. 

“Thank you thank you thank you,”  

Later, as the two of you are sitting on the fire escape watching the sun goes down he nudges you. 

“So, your family's pretty old-fashioned then, huh?”

as long as you agree to stay old-fashioned with me.

Gayatri Mantra

[prabhukedwar]

[bauliya]

I refuse to believe so many of you don’t know twinkle twinkle little star which dates back to the 19th century. happy birthday was first sung in 1912. jingle bells was 1850. most of your countries’ national anthems predate 1950. come on people. song doesn’t just mean billboard top 100.

please do look it up if you dont know the date bc there may be at least an approximate answer and otherwise the last option will completely dominate and this poll will be boring.

and dont be like 'but i cant sing'... just answer the earliest tune you know well enough that you COULD sing it

periods of western classical music provided only for reference
