The Profound Power of Om Chanting for Radiant Skin and Inner Peace
Before the beginning of the world, Brahma was one and said, “I am one, but may I become many?” His thought created a vibration that settled into a sound—Om. From this vibration, everything in our universe came into existence.
Om is more than a sound. It’s the wave of the universe, a powerful vibration that lies within us. Chanting Om is a sacred practice that energizes the mind and body. The sound of Om holds a prominent place in Hinduism, Jainism, Sikhism, and Buddhism.
What is Om? (Meaning Explained)
Om, also known as Pranav or Omkar, is an ancient mantra used in chanting and meditation. Its sound is sacred in various religions and is chanted three times at the start and end of yoga sessions.
It is believed that the natural sound that existed before physical creation was the echo of Om. Hence, it is called the voice of the universe and belongs to all. It is also written as ‘aum’ by many.
Meaning of Three Curves in Om
The origin of its symbol may be debatable, but the three curves represent three states of consciousness:
Many believe that the three curves of the Om symbol represent the three major Hindu gods:
Some suggest that the curves in Om stand for the three sacred Vedic scriptures:
- Rig Veda
- Yajur Veda
- Sama Veda
The three curves of the Om symbol also represent significant cultural triads: earth, atmosphere, and heaven; the three qualities of goodness, passion, and darkness; and thought, speech, and action.

- To pronounce the ‘A’ sound, gently open your mouth, keeping your jaw relaxed and resting your tongue on the floor of the mouth. Feel the vibration in your abdomen.
- The ‘A’ sound resonates with the lower chakras, like the Root Chakra, promoting stability and increasing concentration.
- The ‘U’ Sound:
- To pronounce the ‘U’ sound, gently bring your lips together while maintaining a gap between your upper and lower teeth. Feel the resonance in your chest.
- This sound activates energy flow within the body and resonates with the Heart and Throat chakras, fostering a sense of interconnectedness and confident expression.
- The ‘M’ Sound:
- To pronounce the ‘M’ sound, close your lips gently and in a relaxed manner. Sense the vibrations in your throat and head.
- The ‘M’ sound harmonizes your mind, body, and spirit, resonating with the Crown Chakra, aiding in higher consciousness and spiritual awakening.
