Yoga Sutra 2.50 e: Advanced Yogic Breathing Pranayama practice


Listen Later

50th Sutra Chapter 2: e
Advanced Yogic Breathing involves first understanding our breath, and then slowing down the process of this breath.
Our breath does not involve only inhalation and exhalation, but their are gaps between the two.
Our breath has four stages: Inhalation, stoppage of breath, exhalation and stoppage of breath.
Our Yogis realised that once we have mastered our breath, we could master our mind, and hence master our life.
To master our breath, we have to consciously master the four stages of our breath.
