Om Purnam

À propos

This is one of the most important mantras in the entire Vaidik literature. it was also one of the first I learned from my ādi-guru. oṁ pūrṇam adaḥ pūrṇam idaṁ pūrṇāt pūrṇam udacyate pūrṇasya pūrṇam ādāya pūrṇam evāvaśiṣyate "Because Brahman (ĀŪṀ) is perfect, whole and complete, everything created by Brahman—such as this phenomenal world—is also perfect, whole and complete. Even though so many complete units emanate from the Complete Whole, Brahman remains the complete balance." — Śrī Īśopaṇiṣad Invocation
