Question: Why is Gayatri known as Tripada- Trinity ?
Ans:
Gayatri is Tripada- a Trinity, since being the Primordial Divine Energy, it is the source of three cosmic qualities known as “Sat”, “Raj” and “Tam” represented in Indian spirituality by the deities “Saraswati” or “Hreem”. “Lakhyami” or “Shreem” and “Kali” or “Durga” as “Kleem”. Incorporation of “Hreem” in the soul augments positive traits like wisdom, intelligence, discrimination between right and wrong, love, self-discipline and humility. Yogis, spiritual masters, philosophers, devotees and compassionate saints derive their strength from Saraswati.
The intellectuals, mission aries, reformists, traders, workers, industrialists, socialists, communists are engaged in management of equitable distribution of Shreem (Lakhyami) for human well-being. Shreem is the source of wealth, prosperity, status, social recognition, sensual enjoyment and resources.
“Kleem” (Kali or Durga) is the object of reverence and research by the physical scientists. The plethora of scientific research and development depends on the “Kleem” element of Gayatri .
The “Hreem”, “Shreem” and “Kleem” elements of Gayatri have eternally existed in the cosmos. The modern western civilisation has particularly devoted itself to the management of “Kleem” (Heat, light, electricity, magnetism, gravity, matter, nuclear energy etc.) and Shreem; whereas the occultists and mystics of East have remained particularly engaged in research of “Hreem”. It is evident that the key to lasting global peace harmony and prosperity lies in integral devotion of Hreem, Shreem and Kleem. Gayatri Sadhana is the super-science for mastery of these three aspects of the Divine Mother.
