The Meaning Of “Om”

Content

With the help of “Om” one can realize the Divine. “Om” has a transformative power. “Om” represents the Divine. They say that all the aspirations of the world when going towards the Divine make “Om”, like that. I was in France, some, I think 60 years ago. There was a Frenchman who came back from the Himalayas who had stayed there sometime and he gave a lecture and I listened to the lecture. And in the lecture he said that when he was deep in the Himalayas, there was a sannyasin whom he didn’t know who came to see him and told him only this: “Om”; and that he was completely changed; and then when he said: “Om”, I felt the same change in me, as if the Divine was coming in: Om….Om….. It must be manifested. If anything goes wrong, repeat, “Om…Om”, and all will go well. It is the best protection.
