I didn't notice the dotted line seperating your signature so i thought the PUNCH YOU IN THE EYE was part of your answer...hahahaa
Anyways so it's an OM and it stands for the the sound at the beginning of creation?
That's cool, i always wanted to know.
Thanks  |

Here is a little info. I have also always had the same inturpretation as the first sound of the creation.But, it seems a little different if you check the link, look at the end of page though and you will find,("The symbol is also the main representive of the Goa trance music.")

a nice explanation.
The Music of Om
Om is not a word but rather an intonation, which, like music, transcends the barriers of age, race, culture and even species. It is made up of three Sanskrit letters, aa, au and ma which, when combined together, make the sound Aum or Om. It is believed to be the basic sound of the world and to contain all other sounds. It is a mantra or prayer in itself. If repeated with the correct intonation, it can resonate throughout the body so that the sound penetrates to the centre of one's being, the atman or the soul.
There is harmony, peace and bliss in this simple but deeply philosophical sound. By vibrating the sacred syllable Om, the supreme combination of letters, if one thinks of the Ultimate Personality of Godhead and quits his body, he will certainly reach the highest state of "stateless" eternity, states the Bhagavad Gita.

yes the om... or something spelt like this... its the top chakra point... all sound and life is based on this expression... but of course it part of many which make the whole demension... this is a over used symbol like a cross... and is miss used for a fashion thing... personally its a religious symbol which is very much the same to other symbols found in most cultures!
