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.
