" Aum (Om) is a word that represents to our ears that sound of the energy of the universe of which all things are manefestations. You start in the back of the mouth 'aahh', and then 'oo', you fill the mouth...and 'mm' closes the mouth.
A-U-M. The birth, the coming into being, and the dissolution that cycles back. AUM is called the 'four element symbol' A-U-M and what is the 4th element? The silence out of which Aum arises, and back into which it goes, and which underlies it. My life is the A-U-M, but there is silence underlying it too." ...Aum is "The mortal and the immortal."
- Joseph Campbell, The Power of Myth
