Can I chant Om silently?
I've been exploring the various practices of meditation and mantra chanting, particularly the sacred syllable 'Om'. I'm curious about the efficacy of chanting silently, without vocalizing the sound. Does chanting Om silently still yield the same benefits as chanting aloud? I understand that chanting aloud is said to resonate throughout the body, but I'm wondering if the internal focus and stillness of silent chanting can offer a unique experience or deeper connection. I'd appreciate any insights you might have on this topic, as I seek to enhance my meditation practice.
