The Sacred Symbol “Om”

This beautiful poster has a variety of photographs of the “OM” symbol found all over India. The text on the poster reads:

The sacred symbol OM is found throughout India not only in temples, but also on walls, trucks and doors reminding those who see it all is One Consciousness.

Om is the eternal Existence, Consciousness and Bliss. This entire universe, including our body, mind and senses, is its manifestation, extension and expansion. Past, present and future all are nothing but OM. This was true in the past, it is true in the present and will be true in the future. And whatever else exists beyond the three divisions of time, that also is indeed OM. What is the essence of OM? It is the eternal vibration of awareness.

The poster is available for purchase on Amazon.com (sometimes).

Daily Yoga Practice — Sometimes Less Is More…

With life constantly on the move and not enough hours in the day, it can be tough to fit in an hour or more of yoga on a consistent basis. Unfortunately, a lot of us talk ourselves out of unrolling the mat if we don’t think we have time for a “long” yoga session. Twenty minutes just doesn’t seem like enough time to make much difference, does it?

To Take the Posture is the Purpose of the Practice

“These forms are not a means of obtaining the right state of mind. To take this posture itself is the purpose of our practice. When you have this posture, you have the right state of mind, so there is no need to try to attain some special state. When you try to attain something, your mind starts to wander about somewhere else. When you do not try to attain anything, you have your own body and mind right here.” ~Shunry Suzuki in Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind

    your not going to like this, but in my youth i was slipped some industrial strength acid, and i was lying on a school field looking at the clouds, then they started moving like smoke, into the veryshape you describe, only difference was that it was like a reverse ‘e’ with only 2 dots behind, and i was told by a voice it was Gods name, i only saw the om symbol about 2 years ago, and this happened about 25 years ago, and since then i have shunned earth religions, believing that this symbol was the true God,,,stange but true,

    This year has been quite interesting for me, I’ve been exposed to many items like this since I started working at Dharma Boutique earlier this year. Anyhow, I really like the poster, thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for the picture. The A U M is the past present and future. It is a symbol of protection.

  10. F Ellen says:

    Devo, no need to avoid earth bound religions. Just take with a grain of salt.:) There are many people that have seen/heard God, just not many that believe. The hallucination may have been put in place by God to protect you. Because you are a part of ‘him’ in this Now–time isn’t a restriction. That’s what is eternal.

    Ram Dass’s online satsang has brought me here. Nice.
