We talked about the twenty -four syllables that are in Gayatri Mantra. We also discussed the origin of this mantra and who invoked it first and what that person used it for? Practically, Vishwamitra used it to become the universe himself, to have that constant connection with universal consciousness. We have the right and left side of the brain. The left-brain is responsible for logic and calculations and also for the chattering of the mind. The right brain, on the other hand, is for creativity, art, vision, and foresight, and so on.
When you chant the Gayatri mantra, there are two channels in the human body. There are three but physically you can only trace two. One is called Ida nadi, also known as the lunar channel. The other one is called Pingala nadi, also known as the solar channel. The solar channel regulates psychic heat in the body as well as the physical heat in the body. It is when you breathe through your right nostril. When you chant the Gayatri mantra, it actually boosts your right brain. It is very good for strengthening the right side of the brain.
Listen to this insightful discourse by Om Swami on the importance of understanding the science of chanting and sound to get the benefits from Gayatri Sadhana.
