AUM -Essence of Life!

AUM is a sacred mantra and spiritual symbol in various Eastern religions. The sound is commonly described as the primordial sound of the universe. Chanting AUM is believed to create a sense of unity with the universe (which is essentially what yoga is all about). Furthermore, chanting AUM comes with many benefits such as increased concentration and feeling calm, just to name a few. The silence after chanting AUM -> The state of absolute consciousness, transcendence beyond the three aforementioned states (waking, dreaming, and deep sleep) Chanting AUM comes with many benefits. For a lot of people, especially those who’ve just started out on their yoga journey, chanting AUM out loud might feel a little bit intimidating due to its unfamiliarity. If you don’t want to chant loudly, that’s totally fine. You can start by chanting only in your mind.
