- pranav
- A transformed form of the divine, transcendental vibration emanated at the moment of first creation, and from which all other sounds, and ultimately the sacred Veds, come forth. The speech of Virãt-Purush became the form of pranav by becoming the three sounds of ‘A’, ‘U’, and ‘M’, and then became the fifty-two syllables, and took the form of the four Veds. The three-syllable – ‘A’, ‘U’ and ‘M’ – sound known as AUM.
