Brahma Mantras

Brahmā Gāyatrī Mantra

ॐ चतुर्मुखाय विद्महे
हंसवाहनाय धीमहि
तन्नो ब्रह्मा प्रचोदयात्॥

We meditate on the four-faced Brahmā, who rides a swan (haṁsa).
May that Brahmā inspire and guide our intellect.

Dhyāna Mantra of Lord Brahmā

सवर्णं सुकृतिं ब्रह्माणं चतुर्मुखं चतुर्बुजं।
वेदवेदांगसंपन्नं वेदगर्भं नमाम्यहम्॥

bow to Lord Brahmā, the pure, virtuous one with four faces and four arms, who is filled with the knowledge of the Vedas and Vedāṅgas, and who carries the essence of the Vedas within him.

Brahmā Mūla Mantra

ॐ ब्रह्मणे नमः।

Om, salutations to Brahmā, the Creator.

Brahmā Guṇa-Traya Dhyāna Mantra

ॐ नमो रजो जुशे सृष्टौ
स्थितौ सत्त्वमयाय च।
तमोमयाय संहर्त्रे
विश्वरूपाय वेधसे।
ॐ ब्रह्मणे नमः॥

Om — I bow in reverence to the one who delights in rajas for creation,
Who is composed of sattva for sustaining the universe,
Who takes on tamas for its dissolution,
Who assumes the universal form (Viśva-rūpa) and is the Creator (Vedhas).
Salutations to Brahmā!

  • Rajo juṣe sṛṣṭau – Brahmā uses rajas (passion, activity) to carry out creation (sṛṣṭi).
  • Sattva-mayāya sthitau – In preservation (sthiti), he functions through sattva (harmony, balance).
  • Tamo-mayāya saṁhartre – In dissolution (saṁhāra), he embodies tamas (darkness, inertia), traditionally more associated with Śiva, but acknowledged here as an all-encompassing cosmic being.
  • Viśva-rūpāya – "Of universal form" — He pervades all creation.
  • Vedhase – An epithet of Brahmā, meaning the Creator.
  • Brahmaṇe namaḥ – Salutations to Brahmā.

This mantra reflects the non-dual, unified view of the cosmic cycle — creation, maintenance, and destruction — not as acts of separate deities, but as expressions of one universal intelligence.

Though usually assigned to Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva respectively, here Brahmā is honored as embodying all three, emphasizing the unity of divine functions. It is also a subtle pointer toward Brahman — the ultimate reality that manifests through the guṇas to sustain creation.
