“Om” is the most important mantra in all of Hinduism and, in fact, all Indic religions. It has been called the cosmic, primal sound of the universe. But many who chant Om do not realize its true significance or meaning.
The real meaning of Om is explained in the Mandukya Upanishad.

This Upanishad is considered one of the finest and most concise treatises of Vedic philosophy. In fact, the Muktikā Upanishad, mentions Bhagwan Rama telling Hanuman that Mandukya is the one Upanishad that, in itself, is sufficient to gain knowledge about moksha.
