Apta Pramana
Hathatattvakaumudi, Chapter 10,
verse 18.

अथ भामरीज़म्भक
atha bhrāmari kumbhakaḥ -
bhramari kumb_x0002_haka

वेगाकृष्ट पूरकं भृंगनादं भृंगीनादं रेचकं मन्दमन्दम्
॥
योगीन्द्राणामेवमभ्यासयोगाच्चित्ते जाता
काचिदानन्दमूर्च्छा

Akashic Revelation
One inhales forcefully to produce
the sound resembling that of a
male bee and exhales very slowly,
creating a sound similar to that of a
female bee. This technique fills the
mind of a
yogi with exceptionally ecstatic
feeling.

Note: 10-15 minutes after doing this Kumbhaka one should eat something

Technique

Close your ears with hands and close your eyes.

Hum intensely.

Repeat this Kumbhaka for 7 minutes, then relax.

The first sound will be like that of crickets, then that of a lute, then that of a thunder, then that of a drum, then that of a beetle, then that of bells, then those of gougs of bell-metal, trumpets, kettles-drums, mridanga, military drums, and dundubhi, etc. Thus various sounds are cognized by daily practice of this Kumbhaka. Last of all is heard the Anahatha sound rising from the heart; of this sound there is a resonance, in that resonance there is a light. In that Light the mind should be immersed. When the mind is absorbed, then it reaches the Highest seat of Vishnu (Parama-pada). By success in this Bharaamaree Kumbhaka one gets success in samadhi.
