Articles on Om, Om Meditation, and Yoga

I am the syllable Om." (Bhagavad Gita 7:8)
"I will tell you briefly of that Goal which all the Vedas with one voice propound, which all the austerities speak of, and wishing for Which people practice discipline: It is Om." (Katha Upanishad 1.2.15)
"Dismiss other utterances. Om is the bridge to immortality." (Mundaka Upanishad 2.2.5)
"Om is Brahman. Om is all this. He who utters Om with the intention 'I shall attain Brahman' does verily attain Brahman." (Taittiriya Upanishad 1.8.1)

Om is the resonant frequency of the cosmos. In the beginning Om arose from the primal silence of pure consciousness, and from It came forth all that has ever been, is now, or ever shall be. And into It do all things return.
