Perhaps you will acquire or take-up a sound vibration without instruction (oṁ śivāya namaḥ) ; yet what of the guidance of time¹, place... what of proper technique to guide the mind inward i.e. sādhana = upāya = a means by where one reaches their aim?
What mantra's are best for japa (muttering, whispering) or ajapa , without muttering on the lips (infers internal japa). And what of one's experiences - which ones are fruitful , which are to be dropped or adjusted?
So, the sound vibrating is one part of other considerations that would be addressed.
...well begun is half done, say the wise.
