Prana :
Prana is the vital force - but its always misunderstood as the atmospheric air/oxygen we breathe in.
Oxygen contains Prana within . Seat of the Prana is at the centre of the brain inside the head
Prana can be related to Atman - Soul
Pranayaama , in Astanga Yoga tradition, in its real meaning and sense , is the control of this Prana thru yoga practices and meditation and not
1. Rechaka - exhalation
2. Poorakam - inhalation
3. Kumbakam , retention of atm oxygen which we do as a part of regular exercise at home daily
When control of this Prana within oneself is achieved, it leads to the control of all matters in the universe from smallest atoms to biggest suns.
If a yogi gains control over this Prana, there will be nothing in nature not under his control.
Whole nature will obey him .
It is not possible to know everything in the universe individually or separately. Hence, our Vedas say : “ Know the One , with which you can know everything in the universe” - It means that knowing this Prana, you can know everything in the universe and have control over them.
Vedas say : “ KNOW THYSELF “
Control of this Prana leads to the crossing of realms of TIME and many miracles can be performed after attaining this feat
