In the physical cosmos, the vibration produced by chanting Om corresponds to the initial vibration that arose at the moment of creation. Om is the sound that keeps life going.
Om also signifies the Supreme Being's four states.
Om (AUM) has three tones that reflect the states of waking, dreaming, and deep sleep, while the quiet that surrounds Om represents the "Bliss" state. The waking state is symbolised by the sound "A" pronounced like "A" in America since it is the first of three states of awareness.
Because the dream state of awareness is intermediate between waking and profound sleep, it is symbolised by the letter "U," which is located between the letters "A" and "M." The "U" in this word is pronounced the same way as the "U" in would. The deep sleep state is represented by the letter "M," pronounced as in "sum," and is the last stage of consciousness. This marks the end of the Om pronunciation, much as profound sleep is the last stage of the mind's repose. There is always a time of stillness between two successive Oms when Om is pronounced in a row. The "fourth state" is a condition of absolute happiness in which the individual self realises his identity with the sublime.
The following are some of the health benefits of chanting Om:
Reduces Stress and Anxiety by Aiding Concentration. The Spinal Cord is strengthened by rejuvenating and pacifying it. Detoxifies the body, improves heart and digestive system function, ensures sound sleep, and makes you emotionally stable.
Chanting also increases one's memory and focus, both of which are essential if one wants to be successful.
It's hard to believe that just chanting can bring about such drastic results.
Chants produce thought-energy waves, and the organism vibrates in response to the chant's energy and spiritual appeal.
