This primordial syllable has been analyzed by countless sources of Indian literature. For this reason some texts consider the OM as the purest expression of totality, its vibration generates and creates, it is in fact considered the primordial sound that gave rise to the Universe.
It is also defined as ''the mantra of all mantras'' and we find it in all religions albeit in slightly different forms. The mantra OM is therefore not a single one, but is composed of 3 distinct sounds: A, U and M with a specific meaning.
The letter A is therefore associated with the waking state, darkness, ignorance and the present time, the letter U is associated with the dream state, the unconscious, dynamism and the past time and finally the letter M is associated to the state of deep sleep, to truth, to purity and to the future time.
Finally, there is a final silent element that makes up this mantra: the continuation of the vibration and the silence.
Mughal painting is a particular style of South Asian, particularly North Indian, painting that is limited to miniatures preserved either as book illustrations or as individual works in albums (muraqqa).
It evolved from Persian painting in tiny dimensions and developed in the court of the Mughal Empire from the 16th to the 18th century. The Mughal emperors were Muslims, and they are credited with consolidating Islam in South Asia and spreading Muslim (and especially Persian) art and culture and faith.
