Paramahansa Yogananda Refers To Om/Aum

The Yoga teacher and Swami, Paramahansa Yogananda mentions Om/Aum numerous times in his teachings, for example on page 277 of his "Autobiography of a Yogi": "Patanjali speaks of God as the actual Cosmic Sound of Aum that is heard in meditation. Aum is the Creative Word, the whir of the Vibratory Motor, the witness of Divine Presence. Even the beginner in yoga may soon hear the wondrous sound of Aum."

Famous quotes containing the word refers:

    Away profane philosopher! seekest thou in nature the cause? This refers to that, and that to the next, and the next to the third, and everything refers. Thou must ask in another mood, thou must feel it and love it, thou must behold it in a spirit as grand as that by which it exists, ere thou canst know the law. Known it will not be, but gladly beloved and enjoyed.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
