oṃ in the Siddhaṃ script.

Note that this is oṃ not auṃ. All the ones that look like - ॐ - are actually auṃ - a long vowel, or diphthong depending how you look at it.

This oṃ in the Siddhaṃ script is what you will see in Japanese Buddhist, especially Shingon, contexts. Auṃ is more associated with the Upaniṣadic traditions of India, especially the Maitrī Upaniṣad.

My website has lots more oṃ
