This is part two of the adventures in Advaita Vedanta... will you travel with me a while?


Meditative Monday

Hari Om


The entire purpose of meditation is to "return 'ome" to the fullness of our being, The One True Self. The source of all consciousness. This is represented in the letter-symbol A-U-M.

If you cannot visualise the OM in your inner, centre brow, then it can be useful to have an image or an ornament with the OM on a shelf or small table (or dedicated altar) that you can gaze upon and study and impress it into your thoughts. It can be useful, indeed, to create your own on paper with pen and ink or brush and paint. Make of the creation itself a meditation. Allow the fluid to flow from the instrument to the page with nothing but Love in your thoughts. 

Remember to keep a note in your journal as to how this felt - and whether and for how long OM resonates with you after.
