Why do we meditate on Him? So that He may guide our intellect on the right path.|source=Shrii Shrii Anandamurti}} | |||
Anandamurti starts the discourse by explaining a shloka from the RK Veda which means "Oh Lord, guide my thoughts in a proper way so that my life becomes meaningful and blissful". He then explains that the correct name for the prayer is Savitr Rk and not Gayatri Mantra ans that the Rk Veda is divided to sections called: mandalas, suktas and Rk's. This Savitr Rk is composed in Gayatri rhythm. Anandamurti goes on saying that Savita means father and A-U-M means creation, preservation and destruction. One should meditate on the Supreme Father so He guide one's intellect unto the path of effulgence.<ref name="AV1"/> | |||
