Prashna Upanishad 5.3
intermediate
स यद्येकमात्रमभिध्यायीत स तेनैव संवेदितस्तूर्णमेव जगत्यामभिसम्पद्यते। तमृचो मनुष्यलोकमुपनयन्ते स तत्र तपसा ब्रह्मचर्येण श्रद्धया सम्पन्नो महिमानमनुभवति॥
sa yadyekamātramabhidhyāyīta sa tenaiva saṃveditastūrṇameva jagatyāmabhisampadyate | tamṛco manuṣyalokamupanayante sa tatra tapasā brahmacaryeṇa śraddhayā sampanno mahimānamanubhavati ||
""If one meditates on OM with only one syllable (matra), thus informed, one quickly returns to the earth. The Rig Vedic hymns lead him to the human world, where, endowed with austerity, celibacy, and faith, he experiences greatness.""
What This Means:
Meditating on OM superficially (one matra) leads to quick rebirth on earth, but with spiritual qualities that bring greatness.
Going Deeper:
Partial practice yields partial results. One-matra meditation brings human rebirth with good tendencies.
How To Apply This:
Even basic OM meditation improves your next life. But go deeper for higher results.
