Om symbol
Hindu spiritual icon
The Om symbol (ॐ) is a sacred character in Hindu, Buddhist, and Jain traditions representing the sound Om—a syllable considered the primordial vibration of the universe.
The symbol appears in religious texts, temples, and meditation spaces.
In Western contexts, it often decorates yoga studios, jewelry, and tattoos, sometimes stripped of spiritual significance: She has an Om symbol on her wrist.
