Continuously resounding in silence on the background of everything that exists

"It is not just a sound or vibration. It is not just a symbol. It is the entire cosmos,
whatever we can see, touch, hear and feel. Moreover, it is all that is within our
perception and all that is beyond our perception. It is the core of our very
existence. If you think of it only as a sound, a technique or a symbol of the Divine,
you will miss it altogether. ..... It is the mysterious cosmic energy that is the
substratum of all the things and all the beings of the entire universe. It is an
eternal song of the Divine. It is continuously resounding in silence on the
background of everything that exists." 1

"It" sounds pretty cool doesn't it?  I especially like the last sentence; "It is continuously resounding in silence on the background of everything that exists." Wow. That is some powerful it.

What is it?

Om.

These are two of the many symbols representing Om (or Aum), and upon a little wiki-research (take it for what it's worth) it seems to have many meanings as well.  I just found the above passage to be beautiful in language and meaning, and while I don't know if I believe it all, it's kinda cool just to ponder it. Om.

Peace to the Planet....
