Well you know Sanskrit, which HK transliterated letter would it be? FWIW all the basic TM mantras end in the bindu-chandra which is usually written as a crescent and a dot: the unification of the sun and the moon, the transcendent. This sound is attributed to a chakra at the tip of the epiglottis. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
