Hindu Om
pendant
"In
the beginning was the Word, and the Word was
with God and the Word was God". These are
the opening words to the Gospel of John, from
the New Testament. Interestingly, it is also the
expression of a mystical truth that is held in
high regard by other major world religions. Even
modern science concurs, "all is vibration", and
we all know that vibration creates sound.
In
Hinduism, "the Word" which is the foremost
expression of Divinity is "Om". Om is the
original, uncreated foundation from which
manifest phenomena springs. In India, the Hindu
yogis meditate on Om, and they start all other
mantras or prayers with Om. Indeed, Om could be
considered the very essence of their
metaphysical doctrines.
This
sterling pendant is crafted in the form of the
word "Om" as it is written in Sanskrit (the
Sanskrit script is properly known as Devanagari). |
