OM is the first sound of the universe; it is the wave that was produced at the time of the creation of the universe. According to Chandogya Upanishad, OM is Bhrahma, the timeless consciousness. It is inhabited by the Trinity. When you meditate OM all your conflicts and inner turmoil disappear.

The mystic syllable OM is made up of three words “AA” “AU” and “MA”, when combined make the sound of Aum. This ancient mantra is traditionally chanted at the beginning or end of a yoga class. It has a deeper connection with the body if practiced daily.

According to yoga and other scriptures, the letter OM corresponds to three gunas (values):

U: rajas, it signifies passion, activity and dynamism (dream state)
M: sattva, it signifies purity, truth, and light (state of deep sleep)
