Guest guest Posted August 5, 2004 Report Share Posted August 5, 2004 Hi everyone; Over the short time I have been doing KY I have noticed that there are a lot of exercises that require the pumping of stomach in and out while doing breath retention. Could someone give me a detailed answer as to why this is so important?? It brings up a lot of different things, literally, but I can only conjecture as to what is going on. If possible I would like to here about the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of doing these movements. I look forward to your replies. Regards J.

Guest guest Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 Pumping with breath held IN give one "mastery" over Prana We overcome our blocks, weaknesses and fears of Life Pumping with breath held OUT give one "mastery" over Apana We overcome our blocks, weaknesses and fears of Death Prana is creative Apana is eliminative Various words or phrases can be used in place of Mastery. Non reactiveness comes to mind. It's the blending of Prana and Apana at the navel point that allows the Kundalini to open Hope this helps?
