(B23C) OM
Artist – Unknown Media – Metal
This symbol is a sacred syllable representing Brahman, the impersonal Absolute of Hinduism – omnipotent, omnipresent and the source of all manifest existence. Brahman, in itself, is incomprehensible; so a symbol becomes mandatory to help us realize the Unknowable.
Om, therefore, represents both the unmanifest (nirguna) and manifest (saguna) aspects of God. That is why it is called pranava, to mean that it pervades life and runs through our breath.
