The Om Mantra

When we speak of the word mantra, we refer to the plane of the mind.  Manas in Sanskrit means the mind and ‘tra’ means that which takes you beyond the mind, time and space and brings you to the supremely blissful consciousness that is the real essence of one’s innate being. 

“Om,” is the inexhaustible conscious essence of life unfolding itself at every moment before our very eyes. Om is the Absolute Truth that is complete in itself. It is the most powerfully sublime sound vibration, and the most sacred seed mantra that is practiced by millions of spiritualists sincerely striving for perfection all over the world.

Om is the original sound that has been uttered.  It is the cosmic vibration that is being chanted or uttered, not only by the Hindus, but other religions as well, according to their language, culture and development.  For example, in Christianity, we are familiar with the word ‘Amen.’

The sound ‘Om’ is the Supremely original, magnetically charged, cosmic vibration. Thus, all other mantras are derived from this mother syllable mantra ´Om´

The Sacred Scriptures and accomplished spiritualists declare that since ‘OM’  has been chanted for millions of  year by the great sages of India, therefore the word “Amen” is connected with it. When Jesus said that the Son and the Father are one, the same and non-different, he refers to the conception of the soul and the Super Soul.
