Ang pinakamainam na sādhaka ay dapat magsagawa ng nyāsa sa paglalagay, sa lalamunan, sa magkabilang tagiliran, at sa likod, ng mga pantig na nagmumula kay Manu—na ang bawat pantig ay hinihiwalay at pinangungunahan ng praṇava na “Oṁ”.

Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: bhakti
It teaches a precise nyāsa method: sanctifying specific body-points by installing mantra-syllables, each joined with Oṁ, so the practitioner’s body becomes a fit vessel for japa and worship.
By prescribing mantra-nyāsa, it supports bhakti as disciplined worship: devotion is strengthened through correct mantra-vidhi, where Oṁ-centered placement prepares the sādhaka for focused remembrance of the Divine.
Mantra-vidhi and śikṣā-oriented precision: correct use of praṇava with mantra-syllables and their ritual placement (nyāsa), reflecting technical liturgical practice emphasized in Book 1.3.
