The Surya Gayatri mantra is following me into my sleep. Last night, I played this mantra as I went to sleep, as I have for several nights. This morning when I recalled my dream, which revolved around preparing an arati tray, it was a gratifying affirmation of the power of the Surya Gayatri mantra to help me implement the third line of Gurumayi’s Message for 2024: “Remain connected to your divinity.”

I am grateful that this mantra has been recorded and made available on the Siddha Yoga path website. When I listen to it, I immediately feel safe—like the feeling on a warm summer day combined with the feeling of being all tucked in by the fire in winter. I have kept it on “repeat” for the last couple of days.

I meditated with the Surya Gayatri mantra this morning. First I repeated it out loud and then silently to myself, while listening to its sweet melody. I was pulled inward and saw my whole body repeating the mantra. It seemed as if I was being drawn by the sound of the mantra toward the radiant light of the sun. This made my whole being feel pure and uplifted. After a time, everything became completely silent, and I entered into a deep meditation. Afterward, I felt tranquil and peaceful. I experienced a state of pure silence, which remained with me for quite a while.

While listening to the Surya Gayatri mantra, I stood at my window with eyes closed, bathing in the warm rays of the sun. My breathing became deep and long; my feet felt the strong support of the Earth. I felt great inner strength.

This morning I meditated with the Surya Gayatri mantra. This was a completely new and fascinating way of meditating for me.
I had a wondrous vision and a powerful vibration that expanded throughout my body. My thoughts dissolved completely, as never before. All that remained was sublime meditation.

I have been reciting the Surya Gayatri mantra for many years. However, it was only today that I truly understood the significance of Lord Surya in my life. The sun has illumined my insight and brought spiritual growth to my life. My heart is filled with the light of the sun and gratitude for its many blessings. I will now recite it with a full heart and deeper understanding.

In honor of Makara Sankranti, this morning I woke up early, much before the crack of dawn, and recited Shri Guru Gita. Throughout the recitation I felt every cell of my being purified and creating silence within. Following my recitation, I meditated on the Surya Gayatri mantra and had a glimpse of the rising sun. As I came out of meditation, I prayed to Lord Surya to hug the whole world and remove the darkness from it.

Every morning, without exception, I begin each day reciting the Surya Gayatri mantra silently to myself. Without fail, it leads me into a tranquil and cozy state. As my reciting continues, a golden-white light slowly emerges and leads me into a nectarean meditation.
For me, the Surya Gayatri mantra is like the key that unlocks the door to a golden, deep state of meditation.
