"The Pranava-Vada of Gargyayana" ("pranava-vāda" is the Sanskrit for "uttering of Pranava (AUM)") is a book by Bhagavan Das, published in three volumes in years 1910-1913 by the Theosophical Society, Adyar with notes by Annie Besant. Das alleges that the work is a "summarised translation" of an otherwise unknown "ancient text" by a sage called Gargyayana. Das states that the text was dictated to him from memory by one "Pandit Dhanaraja", a theosophist friend of his who was blind in both eyes and had died before the book's publication.
