In fact Brahman can be indicated as any entity. All is Brahman. (Sarvam Brahmam). Truth, Wisdom, Eternity is Brahmam (Satyam-Jnaanam-Anantham-Brahma). In accordance with these expressions of intuitional experience, each and every thing can symbolise and denote Brahman. All things have emanated from Brahman, all things are projections of Brahman. Gold does not lose its nature, however many names and forms it may assume as jewellery. No one should be misled by the multiplicity of name and form in the objective world, the variety of sights and sounds. When the truth behind the diverse is identified, one is aware of Brahman as the Prime Cause, the Basis, the Goal. Indra the deity is none of these.

The Sutra with which the enquiry started "Janmaadi Yasya Yathaha" (That from which is derived the birth of the universe) - laid down that Brahman is the cause of the entire cosmos, space and all the vital forces. So the word Praana applies to Brahman Itself.
