I feel a delightful sense of playing hide-and-seek as I scan each gorgeous nature photo for
AUM.
Even when I fail to find the sacred symbol, I know that
AUM abides there in the same way that
AUM’s ever-present divine vibration accompanies me in meditation with inner expansion into unity and diversity simultaneously.

I just love visiting the
AUM Nature Gallery! After coming back to it again and again, I'm learning to be more patient as I scan each photo. I can see now that it's also becoming easier for me to find this symbol in nature around me.
When I am able to spot the
AUM symbol in nature, I think of it as a manifestation of the Self bubbling up. Feelings of joy and gratitude bubble up throughout my being.

I come back to this gallery again and again. As I spend time with each image, I find myself silently chanting
AUM. I see the shape of this sacred syllable, and I also feel the vibration of
AUM in the entire image. As I look at the landscapes of my daily life, I remember that this primordial sound sings through everything I perceive.
What a blessing it is to remember this Truth!

Contemplating the images in this gallery inspired me to go for a walk in a nearby natural reserve with the intention of refining my perception in such a way that I could appreciate the presence of the creative voice of God in the world around me. I sat under a tree, closed my eyes, focused on my breath, and allowed myself to enjoy the wonderful symphony of nature: an overture of rustling leaves and whistling wind was followed by a crescendo of humming, flute-like, harp-like and bell-like sounds. As I went deeper within, a sweet sound whispering in undertone to the natural concert around me emerged: AUM—within and without. I experienced I was part of a unified, vibrating, divine network. A fleeting
satsang moment to treasure and go back to, anytime.
Thank you, Gurumayi, for inspiring me to go beyond my ordinary perception through the beauty of the AUM Gallery.

Watching the
AUM Nature Gallery, I remember Gurumayi's teachings on
AUM.
I experience the same stillness of mind that I experience after chanting
AUM. This gallery creates a pool of serenity in my heart.
Thank you, Gurumayi.
