Maha Narayana Upanishad
*Yashcchandasaamrishabho vishvarupah cchandobhyah chhandaamsya aavivesha
sataamshikyah provaachopanishadindro jyeshtha indriyaaya rishebhyo namo
Devabhyah swadhaa pitrubhyo bhurbhuvashcchandanva om/ *The supreme Indra is
the representation of the excellent essence of Vedas embodying the *entire
Universe emerged from *the chhandas ‘or prosody being the collection of
mantras in Gayatri and other meters. The link of the Vedic utterances as
learnt by Sages and Vedic Experts, who re-emphasised by them in Upanishads
was basically the subject matter of Indra Himself. This empowered the
higher knowledge of the Unknown Reality. Indeed we greet Devas who
facilitated the realisation of the Path of the Splendorous Ultimate. The
awareness of trilokas representing Bhu-Bhuvah-Suvah and the totality of the
higher knowledge is summed up in the single and singular OM. The opening
stanza of Chandogya Upanishad states:
*Omit yedat *aksharam *Udgitam upaaseeta, Om iti hridgaayati tasyopa
vyaakhyaanam/ *(Even as ‗Udgita‘ or the chant of the Supreme signifies as
OM emphasising that very word as the essence of Reality and Truth,
Upanishads underline the proximity and the symbolic expression of
Paramatma!) *Om is the very first sound and word of all Vedas and* Scriptures
expressed in Udgita or the chant of the Supreme; the chant of Udgita
explains Universal Creation, Vedas, Meditation, Rites vis-à-vis the
Reality. Om is the very first sound and word of all Vedas and Scriptures
expressed in Udgita or the chant of the Supreme; the chant of Udgita
explains Universal Creation, Vedas, Meditation, Rites vis-à-vis the
Reality.
[A scientific explanation was offered by modern experts about OM:
According to Astro-Physicists and Astronomers, a Sound is produced due to
the fast movement of Earth, Planets, and Galaxy or the Milky Way, called
Akshya Ganga, with some 100,000 million Stars. The Galaxy, the Moon and the
Earth-all revolving around the Sun-each moving on their own axis at a
mind-boggling velocity of 20,000 miles per second, produce the Sound and
the Sages named the Super Sound as OM. The Sum of the Gayatri Mantra
states: The Earth (*Bhur), the Planets (*Bhuvaha), and the Galaxy (* Swaha)
are rotating on their own axis at a great velocity as the Sound OM, which
is the Formless Entity. The total Kinetic Energy generated by these
movements balance the over-all energy consumption of Cosmos and this is
named the ‗Pranava‘ or the Body Energy ie Mass of Galaxies multiplied by
two: Mass x Velocity x 2. That Supreme Entity (God) who manifests in the
Form of Utmost Radiance (The Sun or Savitur) is indeed worthy of surrender
(Varenyam). One should meditate (Dheemahi) upon the Light (Bhargo) of that
Entity (Devasya) and perform the chanting of OM. May He(Yo) guide in the
right Direction (Prachodayat) our (nah) Intellect (dhiyo)!]]
