A different seed thought is used each month. The new seed thought will be found in each study set. Using the seed thought in each study set is encouraged because they have been designed to be in-tune with each other. The sacred word, to be sounded during the morning meditation, is spelled OM . The value of its use lies in the direction of one's thought while sounding it and in the realization that its sound implements the soul's intent.
Every sound produces some effect or other upon substance.
The OM is the word of the soul. Sounding the OM is partly a symbolic act, reminding the meditator that the highest function of his threefold personality is to express, to sound forth, the nature of the indwelling soul. In addition, correct use of the OM helps to recreate the lower self into a better instrument of expression for the inner god. Further explanation of the value of the sacred word and exercises for its use will be presented in later study material. The sacred word should be intoned softly, using very little breath.
