The word Gayatri literally means the Song of God, and because it is a divine song, the Gayatri Mantra is motivated by Divinity. It is an invocation to the Light that the Light Itself created for us. When we work with the Gayatri therefore, we are invoking the Light that shines through all Creation. We are making a conscious decision to work with the Light because it is a field of Absolute Intelligence and therefore working with it will make our intelligence absolute.
