The Om Symbol is an important symbol in hindu and buddhist cultures. It is believed to be the first word/syllable that occurred during creation. It is the first part of the “Om Mani Padme Hum”. “Aum” is, in truth, a three-part word: A-creation, U-manifestation, M-Destruction. It represents the cosmic world. Placing the Om symbol in your home, work, or place of worship reminds people of its teachings. It is a sacred sound that gives the mind peace, making this item a great option for those who wish to incorporate the word more into their daily lives, or the lives of others.
