The History and Development of the OM Choir Narad In an introduction to the quotations I complied of Sri Aurobindo's words on OM, I wrote the following: 'I have been seeking through sound the Divine Voice; not only to hear the heavenly music but to manifest it's vibration in the collective bodyof those who are called to help the New World descend and by a supreme sympathetic vibration to establish a new harmony upon earth.' My directive was given by the Mother in these words to me in 1961, 'You must bring down a new music!' I have come to realize that the

-04_Aurelio on the OM Choir – 27 Nov 2007.htm Dear Narad ! I felt already moved since 2 days to write you, and cannot resist to do it now , after the Om Choir of tonight. Sending well wishes and positive thoughts for your good health ! There had been a goodsize group in the dome ( which somehow seems to have also been created for the OM Choir !),and a surprisingly deep concentration. We went through the recorded exercises, and then into those descending waves of sound....

GUIDELINES FOR  OM CHOIRS I would like first to offer some general guidelines for OM Choirs around the world, followed by the words of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother on OM, and then, to share some of the experiences of various members of the OM Choir, and lastly to speak of the lines I quote each week, before we begin each OM, often from Savitri but also from the writings of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother to help raise our consciousness to its highest heights. Mother gave us no road map of the New Music, no instruction manual, but told us to sit in a circle and have no
