AUM Cannot Be Chanted

Описание: While the sacred mantra AUM (or OM) is very common in spiritual scriptures and many chant this mantra as part of their practice, in this video vignette Paramahamsa Prajnanananda shares with us that the sacred mantra cannot really be chanted. AUM represents the formless Brahman and hence is inexpressible in words. Watch this video to understand the deeper metaphorical significance of this special mantra. The vignette is taken from Paramahamsaji's discourses on the Yoga Sutra of Sage Patanjali delivered to his students at Hariharananda Gurukulam at Balighai near Puri in India.
