Om Mantra and Mandukya Upanishad: Yoga Vedanta Meditation
BackThe pinnacle of the wisdom and practices of the ancient sages is contained in the terse twelve verses of the Mandukya Upanishad, which outlines the philosophy and practices of the OM mantra (written as either AUM or OM). The three stages plus the fourth of Om mantra are central to Yoga Meditation, Advaita Vedanta, and Samaya Sri Vidya Tantra.

Simply superb, the quality of presentation is gr8 and clearly signifies the vast scientific association to Hinduism.I learnt new knowledge about A U M , but AUM means krishna the one without a second.

Respectfully, would other readers please note that the view that "AUM means Krishna the one without a second" is a particular view of some particular lineages, and is not a universally agreed upon principle.

Greatly simple and precise narration of one of the most valuable ancient scripture available to humanity. Thank you.

Google Karika by Gaudapada. There are English translations of this ancient text, which is widely recognized as authoritative on Mandukya Upanishad (Ramakrishna mission publishes one). The book Enlightenment Without God by Swami Rama is superb. It is short, but very dense with wisdom. It's out of print, but you can google it. There are also Om articles on my website swamijdotcom.
