HARI OM TAT SAT

Extract taken from an Article By Swami Satyananda Saraswati
“What is the Meaning of Hari Om Tat Sat
Hari Om Tat Sat’ – ancient mantra derived from the Vedas.
‘Hari Om’ is one mantra and ‘Tat Sat’ is another.
Together ‘Hari Om Tat Sat’: – means ‘This is Truth’. That what I see with my eyes and what is beyond my eyes are the same, not different things. The creator and creation are not two. The creator did not create the creation, but he has manifested or transformed himself into the creation
‘Hari’ – represents the universe and life manifest.
‘Om’ – represents reality not manifest and absolute. By the word ‘reality’, I mean total existence. You can also use the word reality, existence, God, Brahman, absolute are all synonyms but do not effectively define it.
Hari Om Tat Sat – I remember that the visible and the invisible are one.
Hari Om Tat with you”
