Om, also
spelled Aum, is the sacred symbol of the religion of Hinduism. It represents
three topics. The three worlds, which is Earth, the atmosphere, and Heaven, the
three major gods, who are Brahman, Vishnu, and Shiva, and lastly, the three
sacred texts (Vedic) which are the Rig Veda, The Sama Veda, and the Yajur Veda.
The Om expressed
the essence of the whole universe. This meaning is deeply embedded by the Indian
ethical belief, that God was the first to create sound and the entire universe
rose from it. So the most sacred sound is Om and this symbol is pretty much the
root of the universe and everything that lives. It holds everything together.
