education, and relationships.
This article explores the meaning, benefits, and method of chanting the Brahaspati
Mantra, and how it can bring peace, success, and spiritual growth into your life.
Who is Brahaspati?
Brahaspati, also spelled Brihaspati, is the spiritual teacher of the gods and a symbol of
divine wisdom. In Vedic astrology, Jupiter (Guru or Brahaspati) governs higher knowledge,
dharma (righteousness), religion, children, wealth, and luck. When Jupiter is strong in a
person’s birth chart, they are blessed with intelligence, leadership, and moral values.
But when Jupiter is weak or malefic, it can lead to confusion, lack of direction, and
obstacles in education, finances, or marriage. This is where the Brahaspati Mantra plays a
key role in balancing Jupiter's energy.
The Brahaspati Mantra
One of the most commonly chanted mantras to appease Jupiter is:
“Om Brim Brihaspataye Namah”
This is a Beej (seed) mantra that invokes the energy of Jupiter.
Another powerful Vedic mantra for Jupiter is:
“Devanaam cha Rishinaam cha Gurum Kaanchan Sannibham |
Buddhi Bhootam Trilokesham Tam Namami Brihaspatim ||”
Meaning: I bow down to Brihaspati, the teacher of gods and sages, who is radiant like gold,
intelligent, and the lord of all three worlds.
