wisdom

AUM has three sounds. Those who meditate on A Come back to earth, led by the Rig Veda,To lead a pure life, full of faith and love.
Those who meditate on the first two sounds,A and U, led by the Yajur Veda,Go to the lunar world, full of pleasure,From which they come back cloyed to earth again.But those who meditate on A, U, and M Are led by the Sama chants to the sun,Where freed from sin, as a snake sheds its skin,They see the supreme Lord, who lives in all.-Prashna Upanishad

The one original transcendent Shakti, the Mother stands above all the worlds and bears in her eternal consciousness the Supreme Divine. Alone, she harbors the absolute Power and the ineffable Presence; containing or calling the Truths that have to be manifested, she brings them down from the Mystery in which they were hidden into the light of her infinite consciousness and gives them a form of force in her omnipotent power and her boundless life and a body in the universe. -Sri Aurobindo
