THE SECOND AND THIRD STEP OF PRANAYAMA

[Guest guest]

      THE SECOND STEP OF PRANAYAMA

 

As long as you inhaling,mentally utter the sound  ‘ ‘ So’’continuously.

As long as you are exhaling utter not only mentally but also vocally ‘ ‘

Ham’’.While inhaling utter ‘ ‘So’’ mentally and exhaling ‘

‘Ham’’vocally.(Master demonstrated this process).After doing these nine

breaths of the first step,you take up the second step.All steps have to be taken

up simultaneously.Everyday you should do all these steps.The second, we are

describing . As long as you are inhaling,You do ‘ ‘So’’with the mind.As

long as you are exhaling,you do  ‘ ‘Ham’’ vocally continuously and

listen to your own voice.That is the most important part of it.With out it, the

whole experiment is a big failure.Listen to your own voice.You should not listen

to the telephone calls etc. ,while uttering. ‘ ‘Ham’’,you should listen

to it, i.e., your own voice.Like this ,do 3+3+3.Do three respirations like

this.Take a pause.Again three

respirations.Take a pause.Again three respirations.

   THE THIRD STEP OF PRANAYAMA

 

You have to be seated mentally near ‘OM’ by worshipping it i.e., uttering it

vocallyl.Three breaths,like this you do.Take a pause .Again three breaths,Again

take a pause.Again three breaths. 3+3+3.third step.In total, three steps  of

nine breaths each are there.These include first practice,second practice and

third practice. This is all  what we have to do. (along with the preliminaries

already told before).The rest is what happens  and not what we have to

do.Volumes and volumes of book written deal with what happens inside. So we have

no concern with it.Only if we do this,all that written in the books becomes

reality.What we have to do is confirmed to only this much.Later ‘ ‘GURU’

comes to us from inside and instructs us inside what we have to do and there is

no more instruction from the Guru coming from outside.Gradually,when you feel

the comfort and ease and happiness of it,you increase the time and also number

of respirations, with out

incurring any discomfort .After sometimes, you will be able to conduct the same

type of process continuously, while you are attending to your own business or

office work etc.While you are listening to others words, this process goes on in

you, but while you talk, it will be disturbed .After some more time, even while

you are talking, there will be no disturbance for this process to go on in

you.That point of time will occure.It will deal with the time of this

occurance.This is what is expected of us.

So here what are we doing ? When we are starting to utter vocally,we are

bringing this(mind and the pulsation that causes respiration) to Rigveda.Thus we

have brought yajurveda to samaveda and samaveda and yajureda to rigveda.That

means,we have linked the whole series the vocal-chords and utterance and began

to listen to our own voice. ‘ ‘ESHA THRAYI VIDYA’’ . This is the three

fold wisdom. ‘’ YA EVAM VEDA SA SHOKAM THARATHI’’ one who experience it,

has no sorrow.This is for today.
