Om is the mantra of three letters A-U-M A is the past, the waking state, the physical plane U is the present, dream state, the mental plane M is the future, deep sleep, the intellect Om is a sacred sound & the representation of the creator. Om is on its own & doesn’t need another syllable to make its sound. Chanting Om gives a sense of the source of the universe & when chanted, Om’s sound reverberates through the body, filling it with energy & tranquility. Om exists in everything; the words we speak, the things we use & in ourselves. Daily chanting give peace to the mind, body & soul. Meditation that involves the chanting of Om combines breath & sound to form a comprehensive meditation technique. * Clear your head, sit peacefully with your palms face up in your lap. * Turn your eyes slowly downwards & close them lightly & gently. * Breathe naturally & keep the jaw muscles relaxed. * Observe your breath & don’t force it. * With each exhale, chant ‘Om’ & fit the chant to the breath. * Break the ‘Om’ syllable to ‘A-A-U-U-M’, followed by silence keeping it in sync with the breath. * Listen to the internal vibrations created in your body while chanting ‘Om’ & allow your being to sink into its waves. In Om meditation, do not concentrate on any particular part of the body & when the mind wavers around allow it to come back to focus through chanting.
