‘سَوَں’ یہ بیج تین طویل سُروں سے آراستہ اور بائیں پہلو کے تَتْو سے ملا ہوا، لوک پال کا ہردیہ-منتر ہے؛ یہی تیسرا شِو-اکشر ہے۔
Sanatkumara (teaching Narada)

It frames a specific Śaiva bīja (“svaṃ”) as a ‘hṛdaya’—the essential inner core—showing that precise sound-structure (akṣara and vowel-length) is treated as spiritually potent in mantra-vidyā.
Bhakti here is practiced through disciplined japa and correct mantra-form: devotion is expressed by preserving the revealed phonetic form (vowel-length and components) of Śiva’s sacred syllables.
Śikṣā (Vedic phonetics) is implied—especially the role of dīrgha (long vowel quantity) and exact akṣara-combination in ensuring mantra efficacy during recitation.
