a word which, when pronounced along with Siva and Rama, is believed- by the Hindus to bring down numberless blessings upon him who utters it. The moment these three sacred words escape from the lips, all sins are cancelled, but if they are thrice repeated, the gods are so honored that they are at a loss to find a recompense equal to the merit. Such privileged persons are no longer obliged to pass into other bodies, but are straightway absorbed in Brahm.
