AUM is the cosmic sound. AUM is everywhere. AUM is in the rotation of the earth, all the other planets, stars. Everything in the cosmos is in motion and constantly producing a sound. That constant humming sound is AUM. The motion creates speed, the speed creates sound and energy. The universe is so huge that we are unable to perceive it. AUM sound is continuous in the universe but we are so tiny in the universe that we are unable to hear this sound. By chanting of AUM we are creating the sound of AUM and trying to create the vibration within our body.
Omkar, pronounced in its correct method, arouses and transforms every atom in the physical body, setting up new vibrations and conditions, and awakening the sleeping power of the body. The chanting of AUM drives away all worldly thoughts and removes distractions. It is very powerful. If you are depressed, chant AUM for 10 minutes, you will be filled with new vigour and strength. Chanting of AUM gives energy. Continuous practice of Omkar helps in improving the brain capacity and memory. Our capacity to grasp any knowledge increases. Our mind becomes more active and we are able to take decisions quickly. Our brain has 14000 centres. However we are only utilizing 208 centres or just 2% of the brain. The other 98% of the brain remains unused. Chanting of Omkar stimulates these sleeping brain centres. Just 5 minutes of Omkar chanting gives calmness and relaxation to our body and mind. As we inhale deeply while chanting AUM, we take more oxygen in, improving the capacity of lungs. Chanting of AUM improves confidence level and prepares us to face the adverse circumstances of life. AUM removes nervousness and fears from the mind. Chanting of Omkar before bed give sound sleep. The problems of Insomnia and fearful dreams are cured by AUM chanting.
Learn how to chant Omkar and also the techniques to meditate on omkar through different practices.
