Source: SOAS University of London: Protective Rites in the Netra TantraPraṇavayojita (प्रणवयोजित) refers to “being yoked with oṃ”, according to the Netratantra of Kṣemarāja: a Śaiva text from the 9th century in which Śiva (Bhairava) teaches Pārvatī topics such as metaphysics, cosmology, and soteriology.—Accordingly, [verse 2.28cd-33]—“Now, I shall explain the limbs of the mantra, with which, tied together, he achieves perfection. The hṛdayamantra, [which] confers all perfections, is the letter that terminates in the middle [j], followed by the fifth sovereign vowel [u], and summits with the conclusion of wind [ṃ]. The śiras is terminal Soma [v] joined with that from anala [y] and yoked with oṃ (praṇavayojita—yena yuktaṃ praṇavayojitam). [...]”.
