Om
The
virginal sound. The only sound that retains its virginity despite innumerable chanting
since the world was created. The sweetest sound. The clearest sound. The most
dynamic sound. The first sound. The original sound. The sound with multiple
meanings. The sound that throbbed when there was nothing. The sound that makes
the universe throb.
Om
is not only a tool for meditation, as claimed by various scholars. Om is a tool to
understand life. Om connects the self with the cosmic world. Om takes you
beyond boundaries. Om resurrects. Om revives. Om rejuvenates. Om is the most
sacred sound.
Every
creation has an essence. Om is the essence of Krishna. Krishna is Om. Om is the
essence of Shiv. Shiv is Om. Brahman is Supreme Self. The Creator of all
existence. Om is Shabda Brahman (Brahman as sound).
Om
is a rhythm, a beat that inspires. Om is soul’s nourishment. The deeper you go
in this sound, the stronger you emerge. Om is vibrancy. Om is energy. Om is universe’s
music. Om establishes a bond between the self and the Creator. Om transforms; Om
renovates. Om penetrates.
Om
is the soul of Gayatri Mantra, the most powerful mantra. Om bhur bhuvah
suvah. When you chant this, you rise. You gain ascendancy. You soar towards
the Ultimate. You reach the cosmic consciousness. You become one with the One.
Om,
Om, Om, Om, Om.
Let
this sound be the music of your heart. Let this sound be the lyrics of your
soul. Let this sound rule your mind. Let this sound echo and re-echo in your
being. Let this sound influence your every move. Submerge in this sound. Let
the waves of time roll over you. Om is a
shield. Om protects. Om fortifies.
The
present, past, and future is indeed, Om. And whatever else is beyond these
three dimensions of time – that also is in Om.
