In the very first chapter of the Yoga Sutras (1.27) written by the ancient sage Patanjali, he states that OM is the True Name of God (“tasya vacakah pranavah”) and that by meditating on OM (focusing our consciousness on this Divine Sound), obstacles are cleared and we eventually will experience God firsthand. Indeed, if we treat others around us with kindness and see them as limited expressions of the Divine, then God will eventually reveal His True Spiritual Self through this most sacred and auspicious mantra. Thank you, Sage Patanjali. Namaste. /|\
