OM
Amazing how the rose image in the mandalas seems jewel-like...
I'm so fascinated that you move back and forth from working with radiant colour to b&w this way, so adept in each. Love what you are doing!~SpiritBear

Concentrate on OM in the heart centre as though it is like a candle flame the same size as your thumb.~Dhyana Bindu Upanishad


OMdala1

Let OM be the bow, mind the arrow, and Higher Consciousness the target. Those who want enlightenment should reflect on the sound and the meaning of OM. When the arrow is released from the bow it goes straight to the target.~Dhyana Bindu Upanishad


OMdala2

The eye with which I see God is the same as that with which He sees me.~Eckhart

OM is the primordial throb of the universe. It is the sound form of Atma (Consciousness).~Maitri Upanishad~This mantra OM indeed represents Brahman (the Absolute). It is the highest. Those who know its meaning and worship it attain the supreme goal and know everything.~Katha Upanishad


OMdala3

Fire, though potentially present in firewood, is not seen until one stick is rubbed against another. The Atma is that fire; it is realized by the constant awareness of the sacred mantra OM. Let your individual personality be one stick and OM the other. Thus you will realize your real nature, which is hidden within just as fire is, in a sense, hidden in cOMbustable materials.~Sweteshwatara Upanishad

O Arjuna, I am the taste of pure water, and the light of the moon and the sun. I am the essential nature of the mantra OM mentioned in the holy scriptures, the sound in ether, as well as the courage and virility of human beings.~Bhavagad Gita verse 7.8


OMdala4

The mantra OM symbolises Reality. At the time of death, repeat OM and you will go forth frOM the body and attain the Supreme Goal.~Bhavagad Gita verse 8.13


Reality is a circle whose centre is everywhere and whose circumference is no-where.~ Ancient Hermetic Statement


Shree YantRA, the GeOMetric Form of OM.
