Ask Osho!

Why have rishis and sages always supported Omkar?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Omkar is not something to be chanted; it is the unstruck sound of the cosmos that reveals itself in the silence of your being."

Core Insight:
According to Osho, rishis uphold Omkar because it is the anahata—the unstruck, ever-present sound that constitutes the very fabric of the cosmos. Omkar is not produced by chanting; it is discovered by becoming utterly silent and hearing the inner resonance already flowing within. Sages support it as the direct doorway to the source of consciousness, where bliss, beauty, truth—the divine—are realized.
Because Omkar is the natural inner hum of existence; you don’t make it by chanting—you hear it when you become truly quiet.
Why this matters practically
- Replace mechanical chanting with deep silence and listening.
- Recognize every sound as an echo of the sacred, growing presence and reverence.
- Use inner listening to access peace, clarity, and self-realization.
