Guest guest Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 Hello Tanveerji , Adding on to what Neeraj has written, Shiva's most powerful mantra for samadhi is SOHAM. It means TAT I AM. It expands your atma to Universe level and also contracts the universe to accomodate within your Atma. My analysis of Soham is, S sound belongs to Shiva, Shani(Yogi), Kumbha Rasi and is a pure intellectual ,philosophical sound having immense potential. OOO Kar... sound again belongs to Sani and is aged or Vridhha sound.Meaning that this universe is old. (ageless) Hidden meaning of O kar is that it is composed of A kar... and U kar. Creation and sustanence. Aham ... means Me. The hidden meaning is, That which creats and sustains, (Brahma and Vishnu is Me.. Shiva) This is a very loaded mantra .Purity of intention will uplift anyone to great heights. HT Om Namah: Shivaya. --- Tanvir Chowdhury <j_remedies wrote: > Thanks.
