Right on, they have written many books just on this mantra...If my memory is good..Even Lord Krishna mentions this in the Bhagvad Gita, "I am the Gayatri Mantra of all Mantra's" (or something like that)...

Ek Maha mantra yaar, bahot accha to say daily!
Its on my mind when I perform puja πŸ‘

Haven't you got internet in your computer, the meaning of the Gayatry Mantra is there even in more details. That doesn't show that you are very bright. LOL
