hsum̐ ॥
ह्सुँ ॥
Hayagrīva gāyatrī mantra (हयग्रीव गायत्री मन्त्र) – (Recite 10 times or 1/10th of main mantra japa)
vāgīśvarāya vidmahe ।

Meaning:-
The letter ‘ha’, indicates the sun or the solar energy or light. It also refers to ākāśa or ether. It is indicative of the life sustaining breath or prāṇa.
'sa' refers to the lunar energy, Lord viṣṇu and the air element. It is indicative of time.
‘u’ refers to withdrawal of senses.
‘m̐’ is the nāda-bindu and represents the culmination and fulfillment of all wishes.
Overall, the bīja ‘hsum̐’, inculcates the knowledge of the Super-consciousness in its both static and dynamic aspects within us. We therefore become a repository of all that there is to know. Meaning, we get to the state of experiencing the consciousness Itself, becoming (u) with subdued senses, surrender to the divine and transcending the states of space (ha) and time (sa).
May the horse faced Lord Hayagrīva, the repository of all knowledge, sounds and vibrations, kindle our intellect and illumine it!
