Om Jewelry And Yoga

Om Jewelry And Yoga

 
What do Om jewelry and Yoga have in common? They both come from the same origin which is the Hindu religion. The Om jewelry and Hindu jewelry collection we will look at is all made from sterling silver including the Hindu necklace and the Om pendant.
 
 
 
Back to the shared origins of Hinduism and yoga. For hundreds, if not thousands of years (excuse my lack of history) yoga was primarily something that occurred within the Hindu religion and culture. It wasn't until Hindu Monks like Swami Vivekananda brought yoga to the West in the late 19th century. In the 1980s, yoga became popular as a physical system of health exercises across the Western world. In a national survey, long-term yoga practitioners in the United States reported musculo–skeletal and mental health improvements.
 
 
 
Of all the Hindu jewelry the Om pendant or the Om necklace is the most popular with the yoga crowd because the sound "om" is the first sound in creation according to Hindu teachings. The silver Om necklace shown above is sold as an Om necklace and the pendant is sold separately as an Om pendant.
 
 
 
There are other types of Hindu jewelry and Hindu necklaces that are very artistic and do justice to the art world of Hinduism.
 
 
 
This is a small collection of Hindu jewelry but with the Hindu charms you can add them to charm bracelets and you can also make Hindu necklaces.
