| "The sound is śabda-brahma. Sound is actually spiritual, the Vedic sound oṁ, oṁkāra. Oṁkārāsmi sarva-vedeṣu. So Vedic sound begins: oṁ. So that is a sound. So if we capture that sound and make further progress, śabdād anāvṛtti. . . In the Vedānta-sūtra it is there, anāvṛtti: no more repetition of birth and death. Oṁkāra. If one can chant oṁkāra at the time of death, he immediately transferred to the spiritual world, impersonal spiritual effulgence. But if you can chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, then immediately you go to the spiritual planet."
