Why We Chant Om

Om is all-inclusive.

It is everything and every sound. It is history and presence. It is accepting and welcoming.

Om sounds pure and polished, peaceful and attentive. Om is well rounded and is the beginning and the end. Om is seemingly greater than a definition and is venerated within its pure essence.

Om is representational of everything – birth, life and death.

Om is a sound, a vibration, a feeling and a symbol. It is what we see and touch and feel and respect. We chant to lay foundation, give respect and bring the world and its parts together.
