AUM Sweet AUM (OM)

Mantras are Vedic in origin. The teachings of the Vedas consist of various Mantric chants or hymns cognized by different seers or Rishis from the Cosmic Mind. Since the Vedas are impersonal and eternal, the exact historical date of the origin of Mantra chanting is hard to arrive at. For example, every Mantra in the Vedas, Upanishads and various religious traditions (sampradayas) within Hindu religion begin with Om or Aum - the primordial sound, the sound that is said to have its origins at the time of the creation of the cosmos - also referred to as the 'Big Bang'.

Aum is a way of deepening the concentration of the mind, which leads to realization of the divine. The mantra aum may be sounded aloud, whispered, or repeated mentally.

1. Om chanting improves the functioning of all organs of the body and thus, helps in curing various diseases. It helps to improve your concentration power.

2. The chanting of OM drives away all wordly thoughts and removes distraction and infuses new vigour in the body.

3. When you feel depressed, chant OM 108 times and you will be filled with new vigour and strength. The chanting of OM is a powerful tonic. When you chant OM, you feel you are the pure, all pervading light and consciousness.

4. Those who do meditation of OM daily will get tremendous power. They will  have lustre in their eyes and faces. 

Om chanting is like an orientation to the spiritual practices. When your mind is away from all the worldly thoughts, it is the stage when you get truly connected to the almighty God. It infuses vitality in the body and one tends to feel stronger. 

Poems from Yogaswami on Aum

The whole world has evolved from Om
The whole word is sustained by Om
The whole world will merge into Om

In Om resides my strength-Sivayave. OM TAT SAT OM
