Om–the tower of peace! Om–the form of peace! Om! Salutation to Omkar! (80)<br />
Omkar <strong>is</strong> one without a second. Omkar <strong>is</strong> the cause of both creation and d<strong>is</strong>solution.<br />
Omkar destroys manas [the lower mind of the senses and the ego]. Omkar <strong>is</strong> really the atman<br />
in you. Omkar <strong>is</strong> indiv<strong>is</strong>ible. (109)<br />
Omkar <strong>is</strong> the light of consciousness. (110)<br />
Shiva who dwells in the heart-space <strong>is</strong> the ONE, everlasting. Shiva <strong>is</strong> Omkar. Omkar <strong>is</strong><br />
Pranava. When united with forms, it <strong>is</strong> Pranava. Omkar <strong>is</strong> the “unawareness” of bodily ex<strong>is</strong>tence.<br />
(121)<br />
Omkar <strong>is</strong> the most awesome of all forms. (122)<br />
One <strong>is</strong> the dwelling; one <strong>is</strong> the eternal dwelling (mukti); that dwelling <strong>is</strong> Omkar. (130)<br />
Realization of Omkar <strong>is</strong> the annihilation of the world. Realization of Omkar <strong>is</strong> the destruction<br />
of the manas. (133)<br />
All <strong>is</strong> He, pervading everything. He <strong>is</strong> the One, pervading all creatures; qualitiless; the one<br />
Omkar; one, whose form <strong>is</strong> everlasting peace; blesser of those who have faith in Him. (172)<br />
He [the Lord] <strong>is</strong> the Omkar, Brahma, V<strong>is</strong>hnu, Maheshwara, the origin–Para-Brahma. (188)<br />
All things with form <strong>is</strong> Omkar. Omkar <strong>is</strong> the divine in them. What <strong>is</strong> Omkar <strong>is</strong> the subtle<br />
Bindu. Omkar pervades both in and out. (189)<br />
A Raja Yogi mahatma <strong>is</strong> all pervasive Omkar, all pervasive Pranava. (194)<br />
<strong>The</strong> form of <strong>God</strong> <strong>is</strong> peace. Om and peace are H<strong>is</strong> forms. (208)<br />
Om <strong>is</strong> without beginning or ending. Omkar <strong>is</strong> like a stage manager in a drama. As it works<br />
through the bodies of men, those bodies are pervaded by Omkar. Th<strong>is</strong> syllable <strong>is</strong> inside us,<br />
outside us and everywhere. It <strong>is</strong> the cause of everything that ex<strong>is</strong>ts. <strong>That</strong> sound ex<strong>is</strong>ts in<br />
everything. Th<strong>is</strong> energy <strong>is</strong> not div<strong>is</strong>ible but indiv<strong>is</strong>ible. What <strong>is</strong> called Pranava <strong>is</strong> another name<br />
for Omkar. When it <strong>is</strong> united with prana and moves in the body, it <strong>is</strong> called “Pranava.” When<br />
the nature and the subtle [i.e., physical and non-physical], sthula [gross] and sukshma [subtle],<br />
are separate, it <strong>is</strong> Pranava. When we feel both to be one, then it <strong>is</strong> called the feeling of<br />
oneness. Th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong> identical with “Omkar.” At that time, one sees the ONE everywhere. <strong>That</strong><br />
which you worship with faith, becomes ALL. (259)<br />
<strong>That</strong> energy called “Omkar” pervades the universe and <strong>is</strong> formless. It <strong>is</strong> the light in ALL<br />
and the light of ALL. (260)<br />
<strong>The</strong> giver of peace, the Lord of the Universe <strong>is</strong> the Omkar. Let h<strong>is</strong> bhakti become<br />
