AKASHIC REVELATION
Now I shall talk about
sarpāsana that is especially
good for inhaling breath. Tie
both the feet with a rope and
stand erect like a rod. The airy
Kundali devi is shaped like a
finger held in a ring form. It is
adorned with ornaments
etcetera. What I said is the
stable sarpāsana.

Do this asana several times in
the night by sacrificing sleep
and indolence. By the help of
vital breath, all obstacles such
as sleep etcetera come under
your control.

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) 104.

Mandala Brahmanopanishad 3.5

लक्ष्येऽन्तर्बाह्यायां
दृष्टौ निमेषोन्मेषवर्जितायां
च इयं
शांभवी मुद्रा भवति ।
सर्वतन्त्रेषु गोप्या

sarvatantreṣu gopyā mahāvidyā
bhavati |
tajjñānena saṃsāranivṛttiḥ |
tatpūjanaṃ mokṣaphalam ॥ 5 ॥

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.
