Soham  सो ऽहम् 

(so - 'ham)

​

Is a Hindu mantra, meaning "I am He/That" in Sanskrit.

In Vedic philosophy it means identifying oneself with the universe or ultimate reality.

The mantra is also inverted from so 'ham (the sandhi of saḥ + aham) to ham + sa.

The combination of so 'haṃ haṃsaḥ has also been interpreted as "I myself am the Swan", where the swan symbolizes the Atman.
