Tantrasāra Saṅgraha
Tantra Sāra 1.003
अहमेकोखलिगुणो वाचकः प्रणवो मम। अकाराद्यतिशान्तान्तः सोSयमष्टाक्षरो मतः ॥३॥
I am the only one who is complete with all auspicious qualities. I am denoted by syllable praṇava i.e. Ōm. It consists of eight letters starting with A, and ending with Ati-shanta (i.e. Ā, Ū, M, Nāda = sound, Bindu = pause, Ghosha = roar, Shanta = calm, Ati-Shanta = intense calmness)
A pictorial reprasentation of how everything is derived from the Pranava, 'Om':

...

बहुचित्रजगद्बहुधाकरणात् परशक्तिरनन्तगुणः परमः ।
सुखरूपममुष्य पदं परमं स्मरतस्तु भविष्यति तत्सततम् ॥
"The one who has created this variegated vast universe with varied forms has infinite power and is of infinite auspicious qualities. He certainly bestows the highest state of bliss to those who meditate on his ever happy essence." -Dwādasha stōtra 4.3
