TRANSLATION
“The transcendental vibration omkara is the sound form of the Supreme
Personality of Godhead. All Vedic knowledge and this cosmic manifestation
are produced from this sound representation of the Supreme Lord.
PURPORT
Omnkara is the representation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead in sound.
This form of His holy name is accepted as the transcendental vibration (maha-
vakya) by virtue of which the temporary material manifestation has come into
being. If one takes shelter of the sound representation of the Supreme Personality
of Godhead (omkdra), he can realize his constitutional identity and engage in
devotional service even though in conditional life.
