Om is also called as Pranava. The Pranava is the epitome of the Vedas. It is both philosophy in its essence as thought and practical Yoga as experience. The Pranava finds a detailed expression of mystical explanation, and corresponding eulogy at the beginning of Chandogya Upanishad, as Udgitha. It is a whole Vidya there, an entire and independent mode of intuiting the Divine through Holy sound or word. Above anuvaka says: Om comprehends all cosmic laws as well as ethical principles. In short it is the Chant, the Shastra, the Sacrifice, The Priest, the Exposition, the Wisdom, the Wish for immortality and the Means towards it.<ref name=":1" />
