The transformation of man is based on transformation of the mind. When men are transformed, the nation is transformed. When nations change, the world is transformed. Hence, if the world has to be changed, there has to be a mental transformation at the individual level. The human mind should be filled with love. The mind is a remarkable entity. When it is filled with wisdom, it makes a man a saint. When it is associated with ignorance, it rums into an agent of death. Hence it has been declared that the mind is the cause of human bondage or liberation.

Gayatri is a universal prayer that is addressed to the immanent and transcendent divine. The Gayatri Mantra is sacred and is considered the mother of Vedas. It is non-denominational and can be chanted by anyone to illumine the intellect. Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba has emphasized that chanting of the Gayatri Mantra is good for spiritual seekers everywhere, irrespective of nationality, race, religion, faith, and gender. Gayatri will protect us wherever we are. It also prevents and cures diseases, wards off miseries, and fulfills good desires. Gayatri brings peace to the individual, the family, the society, the nation, the world, and the whole universe.
I pray to Bhagawan to bless us with devotion and dedication to chant this mantra with love and one-pointedness.
“Sarva-roga nivaarini Gayatri” (Gayatri is the reliever of all diseases). “Sarva-dhukha parivaarini Gayatri” (Gayatri wards off all misery). “Sarva-vaancha phalashri Gayatri” (Gayatri is the fulfiller of all desires). Gayatri is the bestower of all that is beneficial. If the mantra is chanted, various kinds of powers will emerge in one.
