Aum

Aum signifies the importance of birth, existence and death,

There are three states in Aum,

Jagratha Avastha is the waking state,

Svapna Avastha is the dreaming state,

And Susupta Avastha is the dreamless sleep state.

The breathtaking intonation of the word Aum,

Unifies the concept of past, present and future,

Into an eternity of singularity,

Aum is the rhythm of my life,

Aum takes me to my own world and my own imagination.

Aum represents earth, atmosphere and heaven,

Aum represents Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva,

Aum grants me hope,

Aum gives me power, strength and confidence,

Aum entrusts me the feeling of eternal peace.
