Whenever I have read any part of the Vedas, I have felt that some unearthly and unknown light illuminated me."
- Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862), philosopher and writer
Maharshi Vishvamitra was one of the greatest Vedic sages, as he gave us one of Hindu Dharma's most important prayers, the Gayatri Mantra:
ॐ भूर्भुवःस्वः
तत्सवितुर्वरेण्यं भर्गो देवस्य धीमहि ।
धियो यो नः प्रचोदयात् ।।
"OM Earth (Bhuh), Atmosphere (Bhuvah) and Light (Svah) ---
We meditate on the choicest luminosity of the Divine Nourisher.
May he inspire our thoughts."
Gayatri is the Mother of the Vedas, the Mother of all Wisdom and Insight. She has brought the wisdom of the Vedas to the entire world.

नमः परमऋषिभ्यो नमः परमऋषिभ्यः

Obeisance (Namah) to the great Rishis
