OM is the most often chanted sound among all the sacred
sounds on earth. This sound is considered as the sound of the existence.
It is believed that the whole universe, in its fundamental
form, is made up of vibrating, pulsating
energy. Om is considered as the humming sound of this cosmic energy.
Om is an incredibly resonant sound that naturally draws us
into its warm, vast, absorbing and embracing sound.
Continuous Om Chanting
generates and stabilizes our prana, cleanses us both physiologically and
psychically, clears and steadies the mind, opens the heart and allows us to
rest into consciousness itself.
“Om” is said to be the primordial sound born with the
universe. As we exhale the A-U-M, its vibration links us to the original source
of creation. When done properly, the sound reverberates from the pelvic floor
upward through the crown of the head, filling the body with pulsating energy
that simultaneously empowers and radiates tranquility.
OM is said to be the original primordial creative sound from
which the entire universe have
manifested. It is also known as the ‘Anahat Nada’, the “Unstruck Sound.” This means the sound that is not made by two things striking together.
If you observe the nature of sound you’ll find that all
ordinary audible sound are produced by the striking of two objects: bow and
strings, drum and stick, two vocal cords, waves against the shore, winds
against the leaves, bat against the ball, tires against the road etc. In short
all sounds within our range of listening are produces by things visible or
invisible, striking each other or vibrating together, resulting in pulsating
waves of air molecules which we interprets as sound.
In contrast to the above, OM is the sound which is not the
result of the striking of two objects. It, rather emanates on its own. It is
the primal sound of the universe that contains all sounds in itself.
This single word produces the sound and vibration which
allows you to feel at one with the universe.
