It is found in our 4 vedas and is known to do wonderful miraculous effects on our human anatomy as well as system.It is known to be a prayer to God.
It is the Universal vibration.
Om is the divine vibration and sound of which this whole universe is made up of, as of now String particle Theory in Science also hints that everything is made up of one thing and they are vibrating at different frequencies which should totally take us towards the wisdom of our Vedas in Hinduism.
Om is sound of the sun which NASA had lately confirmed which was already written in our scriptures and Vedas in Hinduism. Even NASA had The Lord Shiva Murti(Idol) of Nataraj Avtar in their main Headquarter which shows their belief in Hinduism as well as its sacred knowledge and Hindu Gods.

Gayatri is the mother of the Vedas (Gayatri Chandhasam matha) Gayatri, however, has three names: Gayatri, Savitri, and Saraswathi. These three are present in everyone. Gayatri represents the senses; it is the master of the senses. Savitri is the master of Prana (Life Force). Many Indians are familiar with the story of Savitri, who brought back to life her dead husband, Sathyavan. Savitri signifies truth. Saraswathi is the presiding deity of speech (vaak). The three represent purity in thought, word, and deed (thrikarana shuddhi). Although Gayatri has three names, all three are in each of us as the senses (Gayatri), the power of speech (Saraswathi), and the life force (Savitri).
Sri Sathya Sai Speaks, vol 28.22: August, 23, 1995
Gayatri, Savitri and Saraswati are latent in everybody. Bhur, Bhuvah and Swah in the Gayatri mantra refer to the body (materialization), the life-force (vibration), and the soul (radiation). Bhur means the earth, which is nothing but the combination of materials.
Gayatri Mantra Jaap should be done in Trisandhyas or the the time of two time meeting just like dusk and dawn , the 45 minutes before and after these time is known as Sandhya time when it should be recited.The Jaap should be 108 or one Mala(bead). It not only increases your intellect it also gives you purity of mind and calmness.
