“The master yogis of India have, through the ages, said that God and OM are one and that the infinite consciousness of God is inherent in the Sacred Syllable OM, just as the tree is inherent in the seed. Since the individual spirit and God are essentially one, we can conclude that OM, repeated sincerely within the mind in both prayer and contemplation, will produce the consciousness of God (Brahman; Supreme Spirit). This will bring about the restoration of our union with God through the awakening of our spirit-Self that is also OM.” – Abbot George Burke (Swami Nirmalananda Giri), “Om Yoga Meditation, Its Theory and Practice”.
