Verse Context

• Pranava (Om) as upasana leading toward siddhi and purification (sadhana)
• Mahavakya: Indirect: Praṇava as a pointer to Brahman, supporting realization aligned with ‘Aham Brahmāsmi’/‘Tat Tvam Asi’ through purification and concentration rather than a direct mahāvākya statement.
• Krishna Yajurveda
• Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (śloka)
