Om For Stillness

Om - The Sound of Everything. When making the Ah sound – imagine being in the waking state, or the expanded awareness of the present moment. The second syllable, the U sound- imagine being lucid within the dream state. The M sound – imagine the deep sleep state where there is blankness, but still we experience a basic sense of self. And when silent, as you gather your breath, this silence represents pure consciousness from which all emerges. With this practice of listening to Om, try to listen for the silences in between the sounds and harmonics as we are transitioning between the syllables. Follow these subtle shifts and silences into the deeper aspects of your mind, where you and the greater essence of everything are one. Blessings
