Much has been written and discussed about the AUM or the OM as is commonly spelt. AUM is a combination of exactly what it is spelt out here, A....U....and M. Known as the ANAHATA NADA or the sound that is caused without friction of 2 objects. Most non vowels will require your tongue to hit the palates, or the the lips to purse together, or any other union that we can all experience right now by going through the various letters in the alphabet by reciting them out loud! (Remember being a witness to what is happening? Being mindful, observant and attentive are the hallmarks of Yoga)
AUM is a sound that balances the Prana in the body. Chanting the AUM giving equal span of attention to the 3 sounds that comprise it, will make the practitioner experience what I am saying. The feeling of equanimity, calmness of mind and the experience of just being! Most Hindu mantras start with an AUM simply to give the rest of the mantras chanted the benefit of being chanted in a calm and equanimous mind.
Chant A.U.M and experience yourself! Nothing more...Nothing less
