The Gayatri Mantra is described as the
essence of the Vedas, in ancient writing.
The mantra is found in the Rig Veda,
and is also praised by the Buddha, in
Buddhist Sutras.
The goal of this book is to enable you

to read it in Sanskrit.
iv
We take a top down approach toward
the goal.

First listen to the following audio,
while simultaneously reading THE
SANSKRIT-ENGLISH text in the next
page,
.

I mprint the forms in your memory –
associating the Sound and the form of
the Sanskrit text.
Repeatedly do so as you listen for an

hour or a few hours.
Don’t bother memorizing anything –

keep gaining greater and greater
familiarity with the Sanskrit form and
associate it with the sound you hear.
2
Now, do the same, while listening to

ॐ भूभभुवः स्वः

oṃ bhūr bhuvaḥ svaḥ

tat savitur vareṇyaṃ
bhargo devasya dhīmahi
dhiyo yo naḥ pracodayāt
– Rigveda 3.62.10
4
By Now, you have a vague
idea of how the Sanskrit
word forms and Sounds are
associated.
5
The Next Step is to gain a
clear understanding of the
Sound of each alphabet.
6
For that, Now, Proceed to a
clearer understanding of the
alphabets by tracing out the
form of the alphabets from
the book ( Vol 1 & II)
appended end of this one.
Don’t bother memorizing

anything. Just gain a
passing familiarity with the
alphabets, and how
alphabets merge to form
combined alphabets in
Sanskrit.
7
Once you have done that,
return to listening to the
Gayatri Mantra while
reading the Sanskrit-English
text presented earlier.

Read the word meanings a
few times, while listening to
the linked audios.
The word meanings given

are just an outline sense in
English.
The Sound itself is the guide

to the inner sense of the
Mantra.
11
The Gayatri Mantra is also
part of the Yajur Veda.
The mantras of the Yajur

Veda may be studied in a
manner of simple reading,
without the rhythmic
chanting patterns.
12
The intonation marks
on the Sanskrit text in
the appended PDF
may be ignored,
while an awareness
of the sound
movement associated

Four PDFs are
appended to this
document.
One outlines the principles

of Spiritual Philosophy, “A
Path to Happiness.”
The book outlines a full

Spiritual Path.
14
Another “ Gayatri Yagna”
describes a powerful way of
studying the Gayatri
Mantra, silently visualizing
the sound, while reading-
viewing the Sanskrit form it
simultaneously. This
engages both audio and
visual stimuli, and
engenders a powerful
impact on the system.

A Path To
Happiness
A Book For The West
DILIP RAJEEV

ISBN:

W hat I describe here is an ancient science, that
were known to advanced civilizations, in their

peak.
To understand this, be it in ancient India, or in

Atlantis, one had to undergo a systematic
education.
Anyway, in this book I will attempt to distill the

ideas, in a simple form.
6
A
llow me to start with discussing a few terms.
7
The Soul is a name given to the truest
part of us. The soul is unborn, undying and
beyond the appeared universe.
8
The universe is the name
given to one of several
universes, which are projected from
that One eternal being. To understand the idea
of the One, which were foundation of Original
Christianity, study the Apocryphon of John.
The writings of Plotinus, the Bhagavat Gita, the
Brahmasamhita, all have the same idea of the
One God.
9
Think of a universe as a
wavefunction form, or a set
of ether waves, the universe
plays out its own dramas, and the individual
soul, merely views one possibility or other. Just
as deciding to drive down a road or another in
time, but the scenes were viewed already there
– just as in a video game, the scenes are there,
and decisions are offered by the game itself,
and the action is done by the game itself.
10
The soul views the universe movements, and
as if in an engrossed state, assumes it is the
doer. Just as one doesn’t animate the
movements of trees outside, one doesn’t
animate any part of the universe, which is one
whole . One merely observes a

possibility or another.
11
If there were several independent free
wills acting on a single pebble, a future
configuration of the pebble would be
indeterminate. Similarly, it cannot

be that a single universe’s
actions are of multiple
independent entirely free
wills. As actions in a video
game, and possibilities of
action are all offered by the
game itself, and the player
is only doing one of several
possibilities he or she is
offered, the universe is
similarly a divine system
12
offering beings the
possibilities of their actions.
The system being Divine,

and from God, virtuous
actions, and a virtuous
inner state, leads to the
viewing of beautiful
outcomes. And joyousness
inside.
13
A human body experiences
as happiness or sadness, the
movements within itself.
14
There is a flow of energies
inside the human body,
which are of a
multidimensional nature.
15
When that flow is rising, ones exists
in a state of happiness,
and natural wisdom.
16
That state of inner
energies rising,
Is termed the inner
state of Virtue.
17
All forms of meditation and
spiritual effort are aimed at
situating one’s awareness such that the
awareness gradually is established in own
soul, and the Divine Origin, the One.
The affectation by world phenomenon is not

high in such a state. As the focus is largely
inward, established in the brightness of the
Soul.
18
The term God is a term given to the
light of the One, as it shines forth into the
universe.
God is in ancient thought not as a punisher, or

rewarder, but as an eternal resort to every
being. A Friend.
God is not understood as entity struggling

between good and bad, but the world
phenomenon itself is just a movement in the
One.
God doesn’t directly interfere with, or send

forth the actions of beings, but Universe
animates itself. The rewarding of good and
bad, is in the natural course of things, done by
the Universe, itself, and the universe is termed
Prakriti, or Nature. Though God is in eternal
power over all phenomenon, and as every
phenomenon and every action is done by the
universe, which rests in God, and over which
Got has absolute power, and not by individual
souls, nothing ever occurs outside of divine
plan.
19
When one says the term God,
usually the energies inside,
rise, and rising toward the
crown space, the space of the crown
chakra, one is inclined to rise the head up, or
the eyes rise a bit toward pineal space, or
forehead chakra space, and one looks
skyward. Being in that natural yoga posture,
one associates God with the Sky.
20
One needs to remember
the light of God, the One, shines
from the Soul plane, inside oneself. Thus God
is identified as own Soul, or Soul of Souls in
Rumi’s writings.
This ought not be understood in a sense of own

soul is God, as neither Jesus, nor sages like
Rumi referred to themselves as God, before or
after enlightenment. God is eternally God, and
the individual soul is the individual soul.
Eternally, under the power of

the One. Jesus says, “I do
nothing.. “, for instance, in the
Bible.
21
Christ, is an ancient term
referring to the One. The
same sound in ancient Sanskrit is Krishna. The
ancients had other terms such as Purusha,
which means Person, Man, Individual, for the
One, thus we find terms such as Son of Man, in
the west, which is a term for one who
identified insider with that Primordial One, a
state of Yoga, or Union with the One, inside.
The original Christian ideas may be

understood deeper from highly respected
writings of ancient Christianity, such as the
Apocryphon of John.
22
The whole question of achieving happiness
then is down to two questions, how do

we gain an awareness of the
brightness of own Soul, and
how do we structure the
energies inside in a way that
keeps us in a state of
happiness?
23
For one, the traditional
forms of society – which
involved friendships, a
deep sense of family, and at
the same time boundaries,
These formed the outward frame that holds up

inner joy.
24
Things such as aesthetics, a
beautiful and simple environment, good food,
and good forms of entertainment, also do have
their part in structuring a world which holds
up inner joy.
25
All forms of religion, were
targeted at keeping the energies rising upward.
For instance, in the prayer form usually the
palms are held aligned to the spine, or facing
upward as in the Dua, as if to send the energies
upward, and so on.
And the exercises of yoga, or tai chi, all have

that one purpose. One sees movements that
have the palms flowing up the body, and so
on.
26
Virtue is also an inner
state of strength, and there is a
natural establishing of boundary.
27
The Greeks had understood
Virtue as the only existing path
to Happiness.
28
Virtue is also a state of
goodness of interaction
between humans, humbleness,
and depth of friendships –
which is found when friends
and family stand together in
difficult times. And, it is a state
of naturally avoiding and
thwarting evil.
Human dignity, and will, and

reason, are all emanations from
God himself, as the Stoics
understood. And by holding
those, we hold God.
29
The universe is made of several
time spaces, overlapping dimensions,
different worlds . And the soul being eternal,
and based on virtue moves from world to
world, or on achieving enlightenment goes
beyond the universe. And thus virtue becomes
even its own materially rewarding force, as
traditions such as Buddhism have emphasized.
30
The structuring of the
human body itself being
multidimensional, happiness is
not a function of the senses. One could be
viewing a beautiful world, and still be tortured
inside. The greater the leaning into the sensory,
the more at the sway of the senses is one’s
happiness. And the world phenomenon
altering from instant to instant, this inevitably
leads the individual into states of unhappiness
and torture inside.
It is thus virtue alone that

brings happiness. In virtue one is
in happiness independent of the world
phenomenon.
31
Virtue is also in usual life a
state of natural goodness, where
one does own duty, and at the same time is in a
state of ignoring the world, understanding it is
all in the will of God, the One,
32
The Soul, is beyond the body, and
beyond the mind.
“The perceiving systems ( the senses) are said

to be on a high plane, higher than that is the
mind , higher than the mind is the plane of
(universal ) intelligence, and higher than that is
the Soul. “ The Bhagavat Gita says that in
Chapter 3, 42nd verse.
33
The ancient Druids used chants
such as
OOOOOOOIIIIIIIIIIIWWWWWW
WWW, where each sound is said in a
prolonged manner. The sound vibrates own
body, and mind, unveiling what is beyond, the
light of the One, and the Soul, inside. The
awareness were kept of that light, when it is
found, and a natural silence were maintained
after each intonation of OIW.
The sound OIW, were taken to be the initial

vibration of the Universe, and thus the first
name of the One.
Thus, in a mantra, sounds are of a greater

importance, than the meaning itself. A sound
such a O may be attributed the sense all
encompassing, but that is one of several
possible associations.
A mantra may be vocalized slightly aloud, or

silently, in a way that it vibrates the inner,
unveiling the light beyond.
34
Druids understood God as the Spirit in Nature.
In ancient Tibet, there

existed a system of
exercises,
Which were designed to

evolve the energies of the
human system such that it
flowed upward.
35
These exercises
are recorded in Peter
Kelder’s book, Fountain of
Youth.
One major point I would

emphasize, and a point of
difference from the book, is
that when doing the
spinning exercise, described
36
in the book, the palms
should face up - as the
purpose is to drive the
energies upward.
In the environment of those monastic spaces,
and when done with other exercises, the
monks may have adopted a form where palms
face down. This would be as their energies are
already in a powerful upward flow, and also as
they would have been in an awareness of the
energies of the absolute, and flow into the
body from the absolute were the goal.
In Sufi form of spinning, they hold one palm

up and done down,
Done in the environment of the

world, in my view one should
strictly adhere to holding both palms
facing up or skyward, when doing the exercise.
37
Kant in his writings arrives at the idea that
the ideal form of daily action is the
performance of own simple duty, and devoid
of any high flown melodrama.
38
What is own duty? That which
emerges as a push inside – as if from God, and
that which if we do not perform well, we will
be left with a sense of unhappiness.
39
The Gita describes Sva
Dharma, or Own Duty as the path. One
engages own duty well, but the awareness is
not on the word phenomenon at large, but on
performing it well, so as to unveil the light of
the One inside.
Duty is to be understood in a deep sense here.

What is a soul’s duty?
And a soul should perform own duty and not

another’s says the Gita. Own duty is first and
foremost to improve oneself. And to hold one’s
own friends and family with respect and love.
40
The word logos which
forms the root of logic, is
defined as, “the Word of God, or principle of
divine reason and creative order,”
So reasoning, endeavors of deep study, all take

nearer the logos, the principle that binds the
world.
41
Chants of the Templars
often have the idea of the Soul, and thus
ancient Christianity, hidden in it.
The phrase “Dulcis Virgo Maria,” in Salve

Regina, may, for instance, be understood as the
light of the One, the inner light, thus.
Maria esoterically, is both the name of the wife

of Jesus, and also the name of the mother of
Jesus, as the universe is the partner of God,
and also the mother of all Beings. The Universe
is an emanation from the One, and the first
emanation is as if a pure light from the One.
42
One of the most powerful
Mantras from the Vedas,
praised by Buddha, and also praised in the
Mahabharata, is the Gayatri Mantra.
43
Ancient days, the
Gayatri Mantra were studied
108 times, thrice a day, around
morning, midafternoon, and at
night. The three times were
described as trisandhyas.
One may prepare a book where

Gayatri Mantra is written 108
times, and study it frequently.
44
The Study is to be done such
that the mantra sounds
visualized or intoned, vibrate
both the mind and the body,
unveiling what is beyond the
mind and the body, the Soul,
the Inner Sun.
When that brightness appears,

the awareness ought be on that
brightness inside, the Sun, the
Soul.
45
The way to do the Gayatri
Mantra is described in greater
detail the author’s book,
“Gayatri Yajna,” which is
appended.
A knowledge of Sanskrit
alphabet and an overall idea of
the meaning of the mantra, as
“May the resplendent origin

of the worlds, shine bright
in my intelligence,”
Is sufficient to undertake
the yagna. The word yagna
46
means an endeavor.
One needn’t say the mantra

108 times, but however
much is done with
dedicated effort brings its
benefits.
47
As the energies of the
human system need to be
frequently renewed, it is
beneficial to wield
something such as the
Gayatri daily.
48
Another approach is
to take the breath as
the Teacher, and the
Guide.
The breath is beyond the senses,

and beyond the mind.
Observe where the breath leads, it

leads to worlds beyond perception.
The planes of Soul, are approached

through the window of
Nothingness,
49
And that forms
the Zen approach.
In Zen one takes the breath as an anchor that is
always there.
The breath is the master.
One breathes in deep, naturally, and followed by

deep downward breath, like a falling autumn leaf,
falling into the ground of own body.
50
In Zen, one discards
the unessential.
51
52
T his work is a guidance to
establishing oneself in a great

yajna.
The happiness of individuals

evolve as they evolve the
spiritual light inside.
The Gayatri Yajna involves
studying the Gayatri Mantra
108 times, at the 3 sandhyas,
daily.
T he three sandhyas are at
early morning, midday, and at

night.
The gayatri
mantra is to be
studied with a deep sense 108
times, at the three Sandhyas.
Each sound of the mantra is to
be studied in a way that
brightens the inner. That
brightness inside is the Sun.
The Sun is a term used for the

Atman, the Soul.
When the sounds of the Gayatri
Mantra reveal an inner
brightness, keep the awareness
on that inner bright Sun.
The Sound vibrates the body

and the mind, and thus unveils
what is beyond the body and
the mind, which is the Soul, the
Sun.
D o keep sharing with all
your friends, and family. A

Yajna is to bring joy, love, and
spiritual light to the entire
world.
As part of the Yajna itself, do

take this work to as many in the
world, as you are able to.
