Pranava is the subject of Naad Sadhana. Naad is the sound 'OM'.
Pranava means Prayer.
Apprehension of the sound waves of OM emanating from the Five Elements (Panch Tatwa)
constitutes Naad Sadhana. The Shastras prescribe that practitioners
of Yoga must pray (do Pranava) by vocalizing the sound "OM" This Naad Sadhana done at the
beginning and at the end of Yoga
Sadhana, helps to achieve the stability of mind that is necessary for further Yogic progress. The restlessness of the mind ceases. Concentration is facilitated. Naad Sadahana also causes the environment to become quite and peaceful.
Sadhana cannot commence without acquisition of the required knowledge.
The Shastras explain the relation ship of Pranava to the different modes of Sadahana .
