If you've ever been curious about Aum, this episode is just for you. I’m thrilled to have Indu Arora back on the show as we dive deep into the essence of Aum—its meaning, its significance for yoga practitioners, and the difference between Om and Aum. We explore when and how each syllable should be chanted for maximum benefit and how each one plays a role in creation, sustenance, and dissolution. Indu shares how Aum exists as both a mantra and a symbol, and how these two aspects influence our practice and daily lives.

Episode Highlights:

• Why is Aum so significant in yoga practice?
• What is the difference between Om and Aum?
• Aum as a Sound, Mantra, and Symbol
• How do the three syllables A, U, and M relate to different states of consciousness?
• When should we chant Aum versus using its symbol?
• Is there a more potent way to chant Aum—out loud or silently?
• How can we integrate Aum into daily life and yoga practice?
