Om 🕉
Copy & Meaning

An Om symbol — the sacred symbol of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism representing the primordial sound of the universe, the essence of ultimate reality. Om (also spelled Aum) is the most sacred sound in Hindu philosophy — the syllable from which the universe is believed to have emerged and which contains all of existence within it.

Chanting Om in yoga and meditation practice is believed to align the practitioner with universal consciousness. Used for Hindu and Buddhist cultural content, yoga and meditation practice, spiritual philosophy discussions, the growing global wellness culture that has adopted Om as a symbol of mindfulness, and any expression of connection to Eastern spiritual traditions and the universal resonance that this ancient symbol represents.
