Music, aum and the universe

Namaste,

IMHO, Anirukta = Anih + ukta = Not spoken. One does not use any consonant, sound that comes from the stomach.

Could be, also as it is not a spoken word that can be used to communicate with others, non-language word. Or simply SOUND.

Respectfully, as a non-Hindu asking in the Hindu RF foxhole....

Have any of you ever actually heard Om/Aum when in deep meditation? I've been lucky enough to have had the experience twice. Once indoors in the wee hours of the morning and one afternoon in a field surrounded by trees and chirping birds. Both experiences were quite... ahhh.. ummmm... incredible....

Likewise, I haven't found that it makes much difference where said as "OH-mmmm" or "AH-mmmm"

Thoughts for this infidel dog?

Oh lucky!! I'm not much for meditation right now. Perhaps when I get a bit wiser

How it's pronounced depends on many things. I always assumed the difference was merely an accent lol
