The
practice of prana Yoga helps in developing all the sense faculties, viz.,
perception, audition, olfaction, touch and taste. A yogin can, by his thought-
attract to his aid from the atmosphere all the powers that he may like, by
relating them to his thought. In bitter cold winter, a sadhak may sit in sidh
asana with his chin fixed on his chest, think of the sun, and start the
practice with pingala or the solar nadi. Heat would generate of itself and
cover him with perspiration. In the same way one can, in themed- summer heat,
have the experience of cold. All this depends on thought – force, provided one
knows how to fix his attention at the seat of the soul. This is the height of
prana Yoga. One can develop all these powers by bringing the mind and the
pranas to one common level. Thought- force spring from the mind, and prana Yoga
consists in bringing the prana into unison with the mind at the level of the
soul , or the divine plane. |
