AKASHIC REVELATION
Pressing the anus with the heel,
(the practitioner) should forcibly
draw up the vital air in such a way
that the air would move upwards
stage by stage. The Prana and
Apana (vital airs), as also the
Nada (Intellect) and the Bindu
(mind), becoming one by means of
the Mula-bandha, bestow the
successful accomplishment of
Yoga. Herein there is no doubt.
