Fitness is the condition of being physically strong and healthy, encompassing the ability to perform daily tasks with vigor and energy, and to enjoy leisure activities without undue fatigue

The M sound gradually leads into silence, allowing for complete release into a void while maintaining awareness. This chant is self-sustaining and indicative of profound stillness.
