Ekam, derived from Sanskrit and meaning "One," is significant in spirituality and healing. It symbolizes the energy that formed the universe and is synonymous with God or the highest form of oneness — The Supreme Oneness.

In spiritual contexts, Oneness often implies a deep sense of harmony, wholeness, and non-duality, where distinctions between self and others or between the individual and the divine dissolve.
Oneness is the core principle and essence of Ekam. Hindus and other cultures believe it’s the origin from which the universe emanates, symbolizing the ultimate unity or oneness of all creation. Ekam helps us understand Oneness as a philosophical and transformative spiritual experience.
