Secret Yogic Breathing Part 2/3

 A plane pushes the air backwards with force to attain a lift, a rocket is lifted into space through thrust principle acting downwards provided by its powerful engines, a ball bounces back from the surfaces due to the force with which its directed. In the same manner as we are continuously losing energy from our body in normal breathing method, but if we devise a specific method so as to conserve all this energy and use it for final thrust at the right moment then we can achieve great results. Yogis and Rishis applied this method and worked on its details. They utilized the thrust of our outgoing breath to create a lift by reversing the pranic flow.

Another important aspect is shaktichalan. It’s a subtle movement of pranic energy in our body which subtle sadhaks or practitioners can experience. When we breath in, one energy current rises up and moves from the base of the spine up towards the brain and when we breath out similar current descends downwards from the brain towards the base of the spine. This movement is of pran and occurs in our subtle body while the movement of breath occurs in the gross body.

In the stomach area we have Ha-kaar, in the throat area we have A-kaar while in the forehead area we have U-kaar.

The whole process is divided into Physical-stage, Psychological-state, Para Normal-state and Vibration-less-state.

Thus in the first stage, we need to have smooth flow of air and not allow it to get struck somewhere, which can occur due to wrong breathing method or wrong food intake. Dearth of oxygen and excess of oxygen both are not good for the system. The presently discussed method does a lot of cleansing on the way to qualify or raise us to the next level of psychological breathing. It starts the breathing from the bottom end or base of spine and moves up towards the brain, inhaling more oxygen.

Our physical parts have a limit. When thrust of breath exceeds them then it connects with our Medulla-oblongata which is controller of our respiratory system. The psychosomatic diseases can be controlled by the upward moving energy impulses. The repeated thrust of our breathing system obstructs the downward flowing energy. As these downward energy impulse get trapped, slowed down, we gain more control over our breathing process, hear beat, blood pressure and can control them in much better way. Since the unrhythmic system is always stress, tiredness inducing, thus we get more and more relaxed, mind clears and consciousness becomes more and more clear.

Normally a human being is regulated through five senses and he sees the whole world through the lens of its five senses which on one side is provider of a wide horizon to experience the world, while on the same level it is also a limiting factor for him. As different senses overpower us during our reception of worldly impulses, our brain releases different enzymes in our body, generating different reactions from various organs in our body. Thus different vibrations are produced inside us, as in the end it is all a play of energy which travel in certain value(Hertz) and certain wave form(Sine, Square, Sawtooth or Triangular). The waves can be in visual spectrum or Infra red region or Ultra violet region. All the waves exist around us but normally we can see only visual spectrum. Changing of this spectrum requires special techniques which only a guru teach or explain.

Generally observing, when we receive a worldly impulse it changes the balance of energy in us and create a higher energy state which are affected by entanglement of our senses with that impulse. Due to that we move to experience that sense objective. Thus, we generally see the end of impulse as movement in us. But actually it is not. For example, while driving a car, we see a hording of ice cream on the road and we immediately want to have it. Which means that hoarding has caused a state of higher energy in us and making us to experience it. We turn our car to the nearest ice cream parlor and buy our desired object. After eating it we get satisfied and come to rest. In this whole process, one thinks that the cause of movement is of experiencing the ice cream. But in actual, the goal of the movement is no-movement or stillness. So in the above example our sense of sight saw the hoarding, it conveyed it to our brain, who checked all the past records about its feeling and found that it was very tasty during last experience, it achieve it it directs our karm indriya to proceed to that place where this desire can be realized.

Thus, one has to learn the process of converting relative movement into pure stillness or absolute motion where time and space do not exist. It occurs in the absolute consciousness where all the wave forms turn into a minute line or point. We have shared one example here but like wise there can be many such example of different senses which can be seen as different tributaries in which we are moving forgetting the main current of Pranic energy which is the cause of all of it. Had we taken the support of that current we could easily have been saved from the movement to experience the senses. Upward movement of this current is life and downward movement of this current is death. It is gateway to our knowledge and wisdom. It is our dearest friend. Just by knowing breathing, one can know life and death as without it we will not be able to survive. Thus, we can see that one may indulge in anything but should not lose the sight of the One behind all, is the key to realization.........concept from 'When I met a yogi'.
