Om

Om, or Aum: the primordial sound of creation, the sound of God.
This sanskrit syllable is comprised of three sanskrit letters which stand for the three gunas: rajas, sattva and tamas. Everything in the universe is composed of these three essential qualities. Rajas is the quality of passion, action and creation. Sattva is the quality of balance, light and purity. Tamas is the quality of resistance, inertia and destruction.

Om is the sound of yoga. Om's begin and end yoga classes like a package. Om is the first happening from source, from the infinite. Whatever follows Om has power to manifest.

Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti
Om Peace, Peace, Peace.
