Aum

Aum (also spelled Om), is the most sacred symbol in Hinduism. Hindu scriptures tell many things about this symbol. In Hinduism, Aum is like calling god's name towards you. This name is generally said three times, before chanting any prayers. Om is usually related to the Hindu God [Shiva] who is the creator and the Desroyer . He has a third eye that does all the destroying when it opens when Shivji gets angry.
