OM is the Highest Consciousness and Joy
Resident in the Inner Being of Every Man

There is nothing Eastern or Western about Light, Energy, Vibration, Consciousness, Love, Peace, Joy. - So, there is nothing Eastern about this universal, cosmic and divine Word, OM. It embodies in itself infinite Light, Energy, Vibration, Consciousness, Love, Peace, Joy. It is the very Life of the life in all breathing beings. It is the Soul of all souls. It is the subtle, indestructible, timeless Energy resident in all matter. It is the Music not only of the celestial spheres, but of all objects and things in the world.
