Om vs AUM mantra

[Rikki1511]

I have been researching this for a long time. And even in this forum, I found out that many people pronounce the mantra ‘AUM’ as “Ooooommmm”. And many pronounce it as “Ahhh-uhhhhhh-mmmm”. Help is appreciated.

I think DarkestKnight pronounces it as “Ooooommmm”. I got it from one of his threads labelled as the 350 day challenge.

I pronounce AUM as “AHHHHH-OOOOO-MMMMM,” like described here:

Crown Chakra has always been painfully tender

Try doing the full version of the AUM mantra, start with AW in your chest, move it up in the same out-breath with OOOO in your throat, then feel the MMMM coming out through your crown with your lips closed tight (don’t clench your teeth) - this may dislodge any blocks. Try one go with it and see if it helps, if it feels like it’s moving things in a good way, do 2 more, or as many as you feel are helpful.

it’s pronounced AUM, those who write as OM also pronounce AAA-UUU-MMM
