AKASHIC REVELATION One sits on heels by keeping the knees folded. One bends the head forward and touches the head on ground. Hands are stretched in front on ground.AKASHIC REVELATION Inhaling prana through the nose and carrying it along the kundali, one should hold it comfortably off and on. This is sahaja-kumbhaka narrated by Sri-krttivasa(Shiva).AKASHIC REVELATION Fixing the gaze inwards into the inner space and with the eyes opening out, but devoid of the acts of opening and closing of the eyelids, this Shambhavi-mudra is assumed. This mahā-vidya (the great ultimate source knowledge) is, of all the Tantras, what is kept a profound secret. With the experiential knowledge of this, is attained freedom and completion from the state of worldly existence.By its worship, is bestowed the fruit of liberation.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.
