“You are a cosmic flower. Om chanting is the process of opening the psychic petals of that flower.”

The sacred syllable "Om" (also "Aum") is found in the Vedic texts dating back to 1500 BC. It is considered the primary seed syllable of all mantras. Repeating a mantra helps with achieving single-focused attention and concentration, as outlined by Patanjali in his Yoga Sutras. Dharana (concentration) is one of the Eight Limbs of Yoga.
“Om is not just a sound or vibration. It is not just a symbol. It is the entire cosmos, whatever we can see, touch, hear and feel. Moreover, it is all that is within our perception and all that is beyond our perception. It is the core of our very existence. If you think of Om only as a sound, a technique or a symbol of the Divine, you will miss it altogether. Om is the mysterious cosmic energy that is the substratum of all the things and all the beings of the entire universe. It is an eternal song of the Divine. It is continuously resounding in silence on the background of everything that exists.”
