[QUOTE="BhagatSingh, post: 207125, member: 2610"] To clarify, I am saying - 1. Both ॐ and ੴare Onkar symbols but in different languages and from different regions of India. Harkiran posted the Tibetan Onkar symbol. There is also Tamil Onkar symbol from South India - [IMG]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/60/Tamil_Om.svg[/IMG] There is also Kannada Onkar symbol, another one south Indian one - [URL]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9d/Kannada_OM.png[/URL] I mean you can just google how many Onkar symbols exist in India and one for each of the different languages that exists in India. They all appropriated the Onkar symbol to their local language. ੴ is from North India in the Gurmukhi script. The Gurus appropriated Onkar for the masses in North India. 2. All Onkar symbols including ੴ, all mean the same thing. That is One Continuous Vibratory Aum. All Onkar symbols are inherently One Onkar, whether the symbol has 1 or not. That Tibetan one? One Onkar That one from Java? One Onkar That one from South India? One Onkar 3. So if Onkar is always 1. [B]If there is only 1, absolutely 1 Onkar then naturally the question gets asked - why did Guru Nanak Dev ji add ੧ to the Onkar symbol ੴ?[/B] This is not for any philosophical reason - because Onkar means One Onkar. This is not for any mathematical reason - because Onkar means One Onkar. The absolute One that vibrates and gives birth to all creation. This is Onkar. People have given various reasons. However they never remember that Onkar is always 1. So when you place 1 next to Onkar, at a philosophical level or mathematical level or religious level, that 1 is redundant because Onkar is always 1. Waheguru has blessed me with this understanding that - ੴ/ Onkar is written with a 1 because of reasons pertaining to Graphic Design. The reasons pertaining to the design of the symbol in Gurmukhi.
