2.83

ekākṣaraṃ paraṃ brahma prāṇāyāmaḥ paraṃ tapaḥ
sāvitryās tu paraṃ nāsti maunāt satyaṃ viśiṣyate //

The monosyllable (Om) is the highest Brahman, (three) suppressions of the breath are the best (form of) austerity, but nothing surpasses the Savitri truthfulness is better than silence.

Georg Bühler 1886, The Laws of Manu
