Gayatri Mantra is a Hindu Vedic hymn which is regarded as the holiest verse of the Vedas, the oldest sacred Sanskrit texts of Hinduism. Sri Gayatri Mantra is addressed to Goddess Gayatri Devi, who is considered as the Goddess of all Vedas (Veda Mata). Goddess Gayatri, is usually portrayed as a Five-faced Goddess with ten arms holding all the weapons of Lord Vishnu. The Goddess is usually shown seated in a red lotus, representing wealth. Many Hindus consider Gayatri Devi as the Brahman itself in the feminine form. While some people consider the Goddess as the combined form of the Trimurtis – Lord Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma – while some other consider the Goddess as the combined form of Goddess Lakshmi, Parvathi and Saraswati.
