Pranayama with Vishwaguruji
Equality is the foundation of spiritual practice. All are equal as practitioners, regardless of external status. The practice of Prāṇāyāma purifies and balances the system. Sit straight and relaxed, maintaining awareness of the body and breath. Begin by inhaling and exhaling fifteen times through the left nostril, using the right hand to close the right nostril. Then, close the left nostril and breathe fifteen times through the right. This completes one round. Practice alternate nostril breathing: inhale left, exhale right; then inhale right, exhale left. Perform several rounds. Follow the breath from the navel to the crown chakra and back. Conclude with Brahmrī prāṇāyāma, inhaling deeply and creating a humming sound with fingers gently closing the ears. Observe the internal vibration and balance. "In yoga and life, people are very equal." "We inhale and exhale. Prāṇa is everywhere."
