Om

Om is everything said the Guru.

But ‘Om’ said his listeners is such a little word, how could it be in everything?

Om is just a syllabus, how could it be the living force that sings?

Om said the Guru is the very essence of the living.

Om in the rivers,

Om in the trees,

Om in the taking and the giving.

Om is the one,

Om is the other,

‘Om’ is the distance in-between.

‘Om is the universal force seen and unseen.

Om is the galaxies,

Om is the whole universe.

Om to every word imaginable of the poets verse.

Om is everything” said the Guru.

But Om said his followers is just a tiny word!
