Akashic Revelation
Contract the bowels equably
above and below the navel
towards the back, so that the
abdominal viscera may touch
the back. He who practices the
Uddeeyaana (Flying up),
without ceasing, conquers death.
The Great Bird (Breath), by this
process, is instantly forced up
into the Sushumna and flies
(moves) constantly therein only.
Technique
1. Remaining in Anilāsana,
contract the upper and lower
parts of the navel, above and
below equably towards the back.
2. Hold as long as you can.
3. When you can't hold anymore, relax.
