The primordial sound of creation, and the ultimate reality. Thought to be the medium within which creation exists and from which all creation is made. The oceanic substance of the unmanifest, infinite light and the root of consciousness, or Brahma-Atma. Corresponds to the three gunas and the three supernals, the active, passive and neutral principles, in that vibration consists of three components, an oscillating of energy between two poles, and a unifying thread or point of equilibrium between them – like in the case of sine wave. It is a sacred spiritual incantation used in the practices of meditation, healing and spiritual transformation. Pronounced : Aah-oo-mm
