Aum hrīṁ Nityānandāya namaḥ (Om Hreem Nithyanandaya Namaha) In this mantra, Aum is the primordial sound and is the representation of Śiva's energy, the male aspect of the universe. Actually, Aum is the cosmic sound that pervades the grahas, their movements and their effects on us. The Bīja mantra (seed sound), Hrīṁ, has no linguistic meaning but encloses a powerful vibration which attunes you to the primordial energy from which the grahas originate: the female energy, Śakti. Nithyananda means Eternal Bliss and invokes the truth which is our true nature, and the nature of our own intelligence. It is the pūrṇa mūla mantra (the complete mantra) because it represents a straight path to both Śakti (success in this world) and to Śiva (success in the cosmic world) which is 'enlightenment'.
