#Thread on decoding the ॐ/AUM/OM
AUM is made up of 3 syllables: A, U, & M, or, phonetically, “aaah,” “oooh,” & “mmm.” A is the first of the guttural sound, so it is the very first sound that human can utter, M is the last of the labial sounds and
MnOm is Brahman. Om is everything here.
At a physical level, the Aum syllable addresses the whole of the human sound instrument: we open the mouth (a), move the lips closer to each other (u) & then close the mouth (m).
Moreover, the syllable AUM represents several important triads:
Sattva; Sacred Vedic scriptures - Rg, Yajur, and Sama; Actions: Creation, Preservation, and Destruction; Time: Past, Present, and Future;
According to Maitrayaniya Upanishad 6.3-
He(God) came to have Om as his soul. He divided into three parts. So Om is the three units (a,u,m).
Waking state is the 1st unit (A)
Dream state is the 2nd unit ( U)
Sleeping state is the 3rd unit (M)
The symbol of AUM contains 3 curves, one arc/semicircle & a dot. Each aspect of its appearance is said to symbolize something deeper.-
B. The center curve represents the Subtle realm of the universe,
C. The upper curve represents the Causal realm of the universe, Subconscious processing level of the mind, and Deep Sleep state of consciousness,
D. The dot, point, or bindu represents the fourth state of absolute consciousness, which includes and infuses the other three levels and is called Turiya. (Silence of AUM Mantra)

1/OK, data mystery time.
This New York Times feature shows China with a Gini Index of less than 30, which would make it more equal than Canada, France, or the Netherlands. https://t.co/g3Sv6DZTDE
That's weird. Income inequality in China is legendary.
Let's check this number.
2/The New York Times cites the World Bank's recent report, "Fair Progress? Economic Mobility across Generations Around the World".
The report is available here:
3/The World Bank report has a graph in which it appears to show the same value for China's Gini - under 0.3.
The graph cites the World Development Indicators as its source for the income inequality data.
4/The World Development Indicators are available at the World Bank's website.
Here's the Gini index: https://t.co/MvylQzpX6A
It looks as if the latest estimate for China's Gini is 42.2.
That estimate is from 2012.
5/A Gini of 42.2 would put China in the same neighborhood as the U.S., whose Gini was estimated at 41 in 2013.
I can't find the <30 number anywhere. The only other estimate in the tables for China is from 2008, when it was estimated at 42.8.
