The Gāyatrī Mantra ( also known as the Sāvitri Mantra) is a highly revered mantra from the Rigveda, an ancient Indian collection of Vedic Sanskrit hymns. The mantra is an important part of the upanayana ceremony for young males in Hinduism, and has long been recited by dvija men as part of their daily rituals. Modern Hindu reform movements spread the practice of the mantra to include women and all castes and its use is now very widespread. English translation by S.
