Om ity ekaksharam brahma vyaharan mam anusmaran, yah prayati tyajan deham sa yati paramam gatim
The one-syllable Om is Brahman. One who departs the body while chanting Om and remembering Me attains the supreme destination. Om is the sonic form of Brahman — the primordial sound that contains all of creation. Departing while vibrating Om while holding God in mind leads to the highest goal.
- •Om is the sacred syllable that embodies Brahman in sound
- •Chanting Om at death while remembering God grants the supreme destination
