Om

The symbol Om is a syllable composed of three Sanskrit sounds: a-u-m, where a represents the waking, material world. U here represents dream consciousness and m represents deep sleep, altered consciousness and enlightenment. According to Buddhist teachings, it is the primordial mysterious celestial sound, the resonance of the sacred harmony from which the entire universe arose.

The syllable Om is used to attain an altered state of consciousness, mental awakening and ultimately enlightenment. The chanting of the mantra Om helps to connect with all existence in the universe, and has calming and healing effects.
