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.
