SADHANA SVARA
Svara Sadhana, or breath meditation, is the source of Satya,
Brahman, and Supreme Knowledge and Bliss. During the Ida wave, act calmly, and
during the Pingala flow, act harshly. During the Sushumna's flow, perform
actions that lead to the acquisition of psychic energies, such as yoga,
meditation, and so on. It confers substantial good results if the breath rises
by Ida (moon) at sunrise and flows throughout the day, and Pingala (sun) rises
at sunset and flows throughout the night. Allow Ida to breathe throughout the
day and Pingala to breathe throughout the night. He who practices in this
manner is unquestionably a great Yogi.
CHANGE THE FLOW IN THE NADIS
The exercises below will help you move from Ida to Pingala flow. Choose the form that best serves your needs. Simply repeat the exercise on the opposite side to change the rhythm from Pingala to Ida:
1. For a few minutes, plug the left nostril with a thin piece of cotton or fine fabric.
2. Spend ten minutes lying on the left side.
3. Sit up straight. Keep the left leg drawn up and the left foot next to the left buttock. Now press the Axilla (left armpit) against the shin. The flow will pass through Pingala in a matter of seconds.
4. Keep the two shoes near the right buttock. The right knee would be higher than the left. Allow the weight of the trunk to rest on the left hand by keeping the left palm on the ground a foot apart. Bending at the elbow is not a good idea. Turn the back to the left as well. This is a very powerful technique. In the right hand, grab the left ankle.
5. Nauli Kriya may also alter the flow of breath.
6. Certain people have the ability to adjust the rhythm at will.
7. Place the Yoga Danda or Hamsa Danda (a wooden stick about 2 foot long with a U-shaped rest at one end) in the left armpit and lean on it to the left.
8. Adjusting the flow with Khechari Mudra produces the most powerful and immediate outcome. The Yogi's tongue is turned inside out and the tip of the tongue is used to close the airway. The above exercise is designed to help you regulate your breathing in general.
Several more special exercises for the purification of Nadis and the awakening of Kundalini will be given; a knowledge more hidden than the science of air, a friend more real than the science of breath, has never been seen or heard of. Friendships are formed by the force of air. The force of breath is used to gain wealth, comfort, and prestige.
Through the force of breath, a man gains awareness of the past, current, and future, as well as all other Siddhis, and enters the highest state. I want you to do the Svara Sadhana systematically and routinely every day, allowing the air to flow through the left nostril during the day and through the right nostril at night. This will undoubtedly provide you with many advantages.
A variety of ailments are caused by incorrect Svara. Correct Svara,
as mentioned above, leads to good health and a long life. I say this to you, my
precious ones, verily, verily! Begin doing this as soon as possible. Get rid of
your sedentary habits, indolence, and inertia. Put an end to the idle chatter.
Make a realistic decision. Before you begin the practice, pray to Lord Siva,
the giver of this marvelous science, and Sri Ganesha, the remover of all barriers,
by uttering Om Namah Sivaya.
NADIS OTHER
Other significant Nadis include Gandhari, Hastajihva, Kuhu,
Sarasvati, Pusha, Sankhini, Payasvini, Varuni, Alambusha, Vishvodhara,
Yasasvini, and others. These can be traced back to Kanda. Both of these Nadis
originate on the Sushumna, Ida, and Pingala sides and travel to various areas
of the body to fulfill specific functions. Both of these are subtle Nadis. This
give rise to a slew of small Nadis. Like the Asvattha tree's leaf is wrapped in
minute fibers, so is this body, which is permeated with thousands of Nadis.
