The Sanskrit word pranayama consists of two words. "Iran" means a subtle life-force, energises the mind and body, and "pit" - a person's own efforts to control and direct the prana.
Pranayama, therefore, - is a process control prana through self-regulation of respiration, it involves temporary posture, the intervals in the flow of breath.
The main elements are rechaka pranayama (breath), pooraka (breath) kumbhaka and (breath holding).
Teach us the mastery of meditation posture (asana) with a fixed and stable seat, during which the thought or attention to flow in one direction, Patanjali will now proceed to great-nayame and devotes her five sutras.
"Having a fixed and stable posture can be adjusted life force (prana) by the natural, self-suspension of breath after inhaling or exhaling - the essence of Prana (Yoga Sutra 2: 49).
In this sutra, he says: "Take a breath and hold your breath." This does not mean you need to exhale, inhale and hold your breath - rather it is understood that if the exhale and inhale again refuse, you can very quickly see what is prana.
She quickly begins to act when you have to breathe again. That makes the prana to take the next breath after a long breath-holding.
Try it in practice, since no single definition can not be so fully explain the nature of prana, as cross-sectional test. If you want to know what the total immersion of thought, do breath and hold your breath. You will find that at this moment you can not think of anything else except his breathing. This is simply impossible. A few seconds will seem an hour.
Hatha Yoga explains this by saying that it is the breath (or the movement of prana) allows the mind to think. If his suspension, then the mind will lose its "fuel", and if it is no longer disturbed, he calms down.
Naturally, that during deep meditation, breathing is interrupted for a short period of time, and this is the essence of pranayama. For immersed in such deep meditation there is no sense of time: his thoughts stopped, and in this deep and appeasement are the joy and bliss.
"Pranayama is external, internal and paused. Delays respiration differ in the place, duration and number, becoming longer and more subtle "(" Yoga Sutra "2: 50).
In this Sutra, Patanjali describes three kinds of Pranayama in terms of the nature of intervals, leading to a temporary suspension of breathing:
- Pause after a very slow and prolonged exhalation (Bahia kumbhaka - external breath holding);
- Pause after a long deep breaths (abhyantara kumbhaka - internal breath holding);
- Long pause between inhalation and exhalation.
According to him, in this technique ranges vary in location, duration and number:
- Location: refers to what time to hold your breath (external, internal or suspended);
- A defined period of duration of breath-holding;
- Number - this is the temporal relationship of inhalation, breath holding and exhalation.
"The fourth type of pranayama - the spontaneous interruption of breathing that occurs when the concentration in the external or internal pressure" ( "Yoga Sutra" 2: 51).
This sudden delay of breath (known as keva kumbhaka) has done an exercise feels, at any time, and it requires no effort. This happens spontaneously after a long Pranayama.
"Possession pranayama eliminates spiritual darkness and ignorance, enveloping the inner light of soul ... And the mind reaches the ability to concentrate "(Yoga Sutra 2: 52-3).
In these two sutras say about the benefits of Pranayama. If effectively and successfully deal with pranayama, removed the dark veil of ignorance, obscuring the inner light. Pranayama promotes contemplation, eliminating the distraction that facilitates concentration and meditation.
"Yoga Sutras" brings to our attention by a simple but very important point: "yoga, to remove all obstacles to the mind." When the obstacles removed, then himself (Seeing) appears in its true form, and life becomes enlightened.
