Dear Tanuja, I'd love to digitize a design for you, but not this one, because it was used for a very destructive cult in Japan, and its lider and followers, in 1995, killed 12 and injured more than 5000 people in Japan, by spreading gas sarin in Tokyo's subway system. Please, I hope you understand, it's for respect to the killed and injured people of my country.
Love,
Yoriko

Yoriko, AUM is a sacred Hindu syllable.
Only because this person used it as part of his cult does not make the word bad.
If anything, this person defamed the syllable.

Dear Yoriko,
I do understand what u feel n respect it.
It is very sad that 2 of the most sacred symbols to us HINDUS have been used by mad n evil men not knowing the true power of these symbols.
I was not aware of the use of this symbol.I only new of the use of SWASTIKA by Hitler.
To us HINDUS these 2 smybols are very sacret and they mean GOD the the destroyer of evil,and that is why we alway have them at the entrance of our house to keep away evil.
Love Tanuja

Dear Yoriko,
this is just a little bit of research i did on the cult u mentioned.they did not use the symbol of AUM... they just used one of its meaning, that is, universe. even when Hitler used the SWASTIKA he did not use it the way we HINDUS write it, he left out the dots in it.
You see these 2 symbols are symbols of very high energy levels ,hence evil always wants to have it but has never been able to, and as long as there is good,love n forgiveness on this earth it never will.
love tanuja

It is the most sacred alphabet to all we HINDUS.every one has a right over it,it is like a cross to catholic. we as Hindu believe that the universe started with the sound of AUM and will end with it.
