OM the Core of Hinduism, the Sound of Universe ॐ

[Gauraonline]

Hindu is a Muslim word for people that live south of the Indus or Sindhu RIver. The teachings of the "Hindus" are the Vedas, which descend from the spiritual world, Vaikuntha, Goloka Vrndavana. They are completely non sectarian and are all encompassing. They are mono theistic teachings. Lord Sri Krishna is the Supreme Lord, Param Brahman, and Visnu is His incarnation in the material world. Lord Siva and Brahma are His demigods, the chief of 33 million, who are all servants of Sri Krsna. Om Krsna

@iorost ..ur absolutly right..the whole point of human life is enlightenment through divine consciousness.but as accordng to hinduism we are living in the last period of earth cycle .so its quite difficult to attain supreme knowledge in such a short life span.the only thing we can do is recite the holy name which ever according to your faith is & dedicate ur whole actions to the supreme one.its the only path to complete liberation.

[umeshvid]

“Speech and breath are joined together in the Syllable Om.” (Chandogya Upanishad 1.1.6)

The breath and Om arise from the very root of our being, the spirit. Joining Om to the breath

extends Its transforming vibrations throughout the entire range of our being. It also unites the

different aspects of our being and begins more effectively and rapidly evolving us, returning us

to the Source–but now transformed.

“The breath is continually sounding ‘Om.’” (Chandogya Upanishad 1.5.3)

[umeshvid]

Om is expanding outward in waves from the core of the cosmos. The same is happening

with us. From our atma Om is being impulsed outward. By coming into alignment/synchronicity

with the atmic impulse through the intonations of Om, we can return to our true state of

being.

[umeshvid]

“God is the Syllable Om.” (Svetasvatara Upanishad 4:17)

“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)

“The self [atman] is of the nature of the Syllable Om. Thus the Syllable Om is the very

self. He who knows It thus enters the Self [Supreme Spirit] with his self [individual spirit].”

(Mandukya Upanishad 1.8.12)

“Meditate on Om as the self.” (Mundaka Upanishad 2.2.3)

[umeshvid]

“Om is Brahman, the Primeval Being. Through It one knows what is to be known.”

(Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 5.1.1)

“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. 2.15-17)

“Om is the Supreme Brahman.” (Svetasvatara Upanishad 1:7)

“The real nature of Brahman is identical with the Pranava.” (Svetasvatara Upanishad 2:8)

[umeshvid]

 “Among words I am the sacred syllable Om.” (Bhagavad Gita 10:25)

all the technology were taken by the british empire from india. mahabharat ramayana have accounts of atomic weapons like brahma astra and puspak vimanas i.e flying vehicles. some vedas describe the basic foundation or da parts for buildng aircrafts. effects of brahma astra was same as the moder atomic bomb. certain mantras were chanted to get the effect of the braha astra. same effects tho. both the epics were composed millenias ago

[djdogjuam]

@tamilprince2008 with all respect, talking about an atomic bomb and actually making it are two completely different things. You can't credit Da Vinci with the invention of the helicopter because of that famous drawing of his. In the future if hoverboards are ever made, to credit the Back to the Future movies would be ludicrous, which is indirectly what you are saying.

[catthypace]

@tamilprince2008 my fren, where are they?

[fntime]

I find OM is a wonderful mantra...I use it before meditation.



[Crazy2DaA]

Hinduism isn't much of a religion, but is the way of life. :)

[GodForum]

@Crazy2DaA - Why are the Hindus not leading the world in technology thereby

improving our way of life ?

[Crazy2DaA]

@GodForum Why do we need to improve our way of life by technology? There's plenty of reasons, but I don't fully understand your question...

what Sri Sri Radhe Krishna says* in B-G 2.7. Since then, I do not need the god / gods, priests work, the doctors in the spiritual field (witch-doctors or any like beings) or anybody or any association to pray for me! WHICH MEANS I HAVE SPIRITUAL AUTONOMY (SPIRITUAL INDEPENDENCE). I am free from these odd beings and bodies!

08.03.10. (3) To ahaaha19 TRILLIONS ON TRILLIONS TIMES NO, MY DEAR FRIEND!  DO NOT TEACH PEOPLE THESE QUEER IDEAS! I cannot tell you from which ism I am, but I am a 100% friend of Sri Sri Radhe Krishna. I threw away the ancestral gods or any being called god / gods from my property, my material body and my spiritual body from the 6th November 1978 (about 32 years) only by the strength of

AND THOUGHTS FROM OTHERS ALSO is very inappropriate and extremely dangerous in the spiritual field. How can anyone refurbish (renovate / modernize / renew / bring up to date): LEAVE ALL DHAMAS AND SWADHARMAS AND COME TO ME ALONE, says Sri Krishna in B-G 2.7. BORROWING IDEAS AND THOUGHTS FROM OTHERS leaving B-G 2.7!

[DEWADASENVYAPOORY]

08.03.10. (1) To ahaaha19 In the spiritual field, VARIOUS THOUGHTS AND IDEAS WHICH PASSED FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION are not bad in themselves as long as these thoughts and ideas will provide utmost invincible spiritual security and protection for the person using these thoughts and ideas. But, REFURBISHING ITSELF BY NEW IDEA AND THOUGHTS EVEN BORROWING IDEAS

Dewadasen Vyapoory, Spiritual Researcher/Spiritual Teacher/Spiritual Consultant.

[DEWADASENVYAPOORY]

04.04.10.(4) To Lotusutra1 It is not surprising; that you said you had found it an interesting interpretation! It is not an interpretation that is important! Everyone will interpret every idea according to ones way of understanding Spiritual security cannot be based on interpretation of any being! Either one is spiritually protected or one is outside the said spiritual protection. And, now spiritual protection differs from different groups of thinkers!

Dewadasen Vyapoory, SR/ST/SC.

[DEWADASENVYAPOORY]

04.04.10.(3) To Lotusutra1 without thinking what others will say! There is also the other question, so many people chant OM, why more and more existence(s) are not created every second? You talked also about it was the space or the pause between the word OM which gives rise to existence How can you use between when there is only one word OM? There is lack of precision in the statement!

Dewadasen Vyapoory,SR/ST/SC

[DEWADASENVYAPOORY]

04.04.10.(2) To Lotusutra1 It could not be the being that people called god/gods, for the simple fact that people create god/gods according to their needs and their nature. B-G 7. 20 People all over the world tried to give an answer: This god or that god did create the existence. It is very far from the right answer because it is the extreme love that these people have for the god they think of that they dunk their thinking in which make them to say that,

[DEWADASENVYAPOORY]

04.04.10.(1) To Lotusutra1 Do not take my talks as the speeches of a teacher, take them as those of a friend. You said, I read that during the chanting of OM, it was the space or the pause between the word OM which gives rise to existence! There are many points to talk about this statement! First of all, the question: Who chanted OM to give rise to existence? It was/is not you! It was/is not a human being!

Dewadasen Vyapoory, S R/S T/S C.

[DEWADASENVYAPOORY]

Answer to sugivarun and indranatha It is not a play with letters to give birth to another OM/AUM! No question of very nice peaceful music! One has to make deeper spiritual researches in the spiritual field before trying to say something credit worthy. Do take the time to read my 7 comments at MANTRA (OM/AUM) about the birth (rebirth) of OM/AUM to understand that OM/AUM is an empty word !

Dewadasen Vyapoory, Spiritual Researcher/Spiritual Teacher/Spiritual Consultant.

[Lotusutra1]

@DEWADASENVYAPOORY I read that during the chanting of OM, it was the space or pause Between the word OM which gives rise to existence. Om represents existence and the empty space between which Gives Rise To Existence. I found it an interesting interpretation.

[fntime]

@Lotusutra1 Have you chanted OM (AUM) yet?

[rd6659]

all,all,aaaaalllllllll righty theeeeeeeen! all righty thennnnnnnnnn

[soultears99]

ॐ

[sugivarun]

om means soul " iam a soul" not this body

IAM : if u remove 'I' it becomes "AM" and add "U" to preserve you that is soul becomes aum

[indranatha]

The OM consists of three parts: A, U and M. A is the acoustic root of creation, U is the acoustic root of preservation and M is the acoustic root of destruction. the collective sound is the acoustic root or sound of the universe.

Very nice peaceful music.

[shelly2shoe]

it the univarsal sound or vibration

[nonshari]

Om means in romanian language "human " .

[banheden]

Then romanian is very closely related to indian because its the same meaning.

[Ossammie]

very interesting !

[chakra4u]

enlightened

[occultninja4]

it is not the sound, it is something called energy vibrations, frequincy, sound... sound is the only thing that equals to thies words, learn thier meaning.

[ajaynsharma]

Recent astronomical research evidences supports the notion that 'Om' is not only the sound of universe but most probably shape of our universe too. Off course the string theory or parallel universe (or multiverse) conept is coming into being, still it supports the notion that, perhaps, all other universes keep on reverberating with the sound 'Om' and thats why we can chant 'Om' mantra infinite times to rhythm with infinite no. of universes..

[occultninja4]

exactly, i'll add a little more, when you say "om" what pitch do you say it with? a low pitch or a high pitch, or some pitch in between? one speculation is that the universe being a multiverse is merely another illusion of space time. it's your own frequincy or energy vibration that ditermines what universe you are in. example, whright minfulness is in buddhism, if you think of something positive while someone else see's it as negative, BAM you are in two diferent universes, right thier.

[UserCamera]

I am a hindu, but I am also a physicist. In my several decades in science, I have seen several religons make even more crazy claims. Please do not use the words 'string theory' or 'parallel universe' if you don't understand them....

[adityakrishna008]

Om means "That which hath No Beginning nor End". The chanting of Om and meditation on the symbol are believed to bring health, prosperity, and longevity to the spiritual aspirant.

[IvanKolosnik]

groan, sorry for the typo

[IvanKolosnik]

Interestingly OM resonates with Semitic Amen - Let it be

Also, in many languages kids say mama - and the sick graon like uh-m-mm..

the words womb (matka) are also seem to relate to this term

[jaycolo99]

I'm really tired of hippies get om symbol tattoos and and wearing om jewelry, and not knowing anything about hinduism. They are all such hypocrites, they dont chant mantras, most of them have never even heard of the Rig Vedas or the Upanishads. The Aum symbol is a sacred spritual symbol, not a cool fashion statement!!!

[markbick]

If it helps them feel closer to spirit and raise the vibration of the planet then why does it matter? Were all one big happy family of spirit...maybe it is a new beginning for them and they are happy to show it. We need to focus on ourselves first and then when are enlightened may we help guide others..but each has to walk the path or self-discovery...allow them to.

[inthemiddlechic23]

We must all begin somewhere...as surely you did.

Thank you for your lesson. :)

[trustyification]

don't get too worked up about, it a lot of "hippies" don't have a religion they can connect with, it's not intended to offend.

[suedunim]

mooooooo. i cant help it. i get everything backwards. but this sounds quite nice.

[AgTip]

"Hu" are fine.

Aum feelin' centered.

Sweet balm of the Center bathes my center.

Thank you.

[unnikrshn]

Helo!plz go through!evidence and give comments!u r closing ur eyes and saying nothing in the world.very poor!

[IchKommeAufJotunheim]

Sorry to burst your bubble Vanilla but Hinduism is one of the oldest religions, if not the oldest. Archeology can prove this to be true.

[prmd142]

Just close your eyes and chant 'Om' a few times & feel the soothing of your spirit.. for best effects chant it in the early morning (at about sunrise time) after bath !

Om shanti shanti shanti:

[bobbi6042]

This is great I love knowing that there are so many beautiful ways to be in God's presense and be one with the world.

[baladv]

OM or AUM is the sound of the big bang or the creation of universe. It is also called Naad-Brahma in Sanskrit

[taurausbull]

all such claims are not verified and least they are proven. big bang is a very recent word coined in the last century.

[justawordaway]

In science yes not in ancient mythology. In Hindu mythology it says there was an egg from which Brahma created the universe. Big bang says the universe was created from a cosmic egg. And it is not an explosion. It is a rapid expansion of space and time.

[taurausbull]

psuedo hindus are using scientific terms to justify the so called myths of their religion. often the myths are no older than few decades, they never discussed such myths previously but started discovering or creating or rewriting them as soon as some of them read western science books. Its know that the so called land of hindus is also a place where lots of weed grows naturally in wild

[ahaaha19]

Dear Sir, Hinduism is not a religion like Christianity and Islam. They are all based on a particular text. But so called hinduism is the anothology of various thoughts and ideas which passed from generation to generation and refurbishing itself by new idea and thoughts even borrowing ideas and thoughts from others also. Hindusim never says that they are only correct , others are worong and living sin. Becuase Hindu ideologist knows all the concepts and texts are made by humanbeing only.

[taurausbull]

these were such excellent comments, its often a great pleasure to be humbled by wise men and women with their actions and thoughts.

[22poopoo]

Altho as an orthodox christian, I can tell you that orthodox chritianity for one is not BASED on the bible as it is oldr than it, "Holy Tradition" is equally important as Liturgy in orthodoxy, cos the bible is actually product of orthodox tradition. So there are some similarities with hinduism there.

[midhundon]

@ahaaha19 im a christian ur very correct!!

[cfei12]

@midhundon u dirty pig jesus is its hoax and whole christianity shit is based on lie.....thats why declining in north America and Europe

[shaz2oo6]

that is so beautiful, thank you...ooommm .

[surenbig]

Hinduism doesnt own anything, the word hinduism doesnt exist, I am an hindu also not a hindu, you are not supposed to label yourself as a hindu, Om belongs to everyone, Om belongs to everyone

[krishnalite]

That sounds very enlightened. It reminds me of what Ghandi said in the movie. He was speaking of being a Hindu and Christian and muslim all at once. Love was all that mattered. Not sure if he said in real life but you get the point i hope

[justawordaway]

Not only Gandhi but many Indian religious person (Hindu) said the same. "There are many roads which leads to the same God" - Ramkrishna Paramhansa

[OiOiOiAussie]

Even the word "Human" is derived from the word OM

[dcRidesTheRiver]

"aum" or "om" is not the core of hinduism, but it depicts every object present. Just chant "aum" and feel yourself resonating with the universe. Its an amazing feeling.

[Maraking16]

Could someone please explain what exactly "OM" is and what it means?

[thebless4ever]

Om is a very holy word in Hinduism...when you close your eyes and breath deeply say om...it brengs peace and calms you!....it's used for yoga aswell.

[bilgihan34]

Om means aum..Aum is the God's name
