Aum Is Atman. Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar
Aum Is Atman.
The word AUM is of three syllabi.
A is pronounced from the longs.
U s pronounced through the throat.
M is pronounced through the nose.
Aum is the primordial sound of Silence.
Aum is the sonic sound of the Universe.
Aum is the mantra of the Vedic text.
Aum represents three stages of life.
A corresponds to the waking stage.
U corresponds to the dreaming sage.
M corresponds to the sleeping stage.
The sound of the Aum ends in the fourth stage.
The mind acts outdoor in the waking stage.
The mind acts indoor in the dreaming stage.
The mind would rest in the sleeping stage.
The mind is absent in the fourth stage.
Sleeping stage itself is the bliss all get
As there the mind gives no agitation.
The fourth stage is the amalgamation
Of Atman and Brahman with in tranquility.
[ Mandukya Upanishad is based on ]

Let me say like this, sir - A means first, A means Aakash, U means turning, M means mother, mother-earth. AUM means let us turn to mother. the creator, the sustain-er. It s the beginning that has no end. good writing sir. thanks.
