Ang pangkat na apat na kinalalagyan ng mga pantig ng Banal na Pangalan ay tinatawag na ‘apat na siddhi’. Kapag kinuha sa ayos na pakanan (paikot na ayon sa orasan), ang ikalawang pangkat ay ipinahahayag na ‘Sādhya’.

It defines a precise, rule-based way of arranging the Name’s syllables into a fourfold scheme, linking correct order (prādakṣiṇya) with specific spiritual outcomes (siddhis) and a distinct category called Sādhya.
By emphasizing the ‘Name’ (nāma) and its syllables as the core element, it supports nāma-centered practice—devotion expressed through disciplined mantra use rather than mere sentiment.
It highlights technical mantra-vidhi: phonemic/letter-based arrangement (linked to Śikṣā and Vyākaraṇa concerns) and the ritual principle of rightward/clockwise sequencing (prādakṣiṇya) used in nyāsa and related procedures.
