Among the general populace, prana is often equated with breath, oxygen, or even the soul. However, prana is a unique form of energy, distinct from these concepts. It is the force that not only sustains life but also grants vitality, enabling long life, freedom from illness, and resistance to the aging process.
Prana is not merely a concept but an essential force that links the microcosm of the individual with the macrocosm of the universe. Through its understanding and application, we unlock the profound potential to heal, transform, and connect with the divine essence of existence.
Like a game with defined rules and boundaries, life provides us with a framework governed by karma and its fruits. Within this framework lies free will, allowing us to navigate life’s challenges.
Our ancestors were aware of atomic structures and their three fundamental particles, just as they understood the interplay of sattva, rajas, and tamas in human nature. They recognized these parallels between the physical and spiritual realms, integrating them into their practices.
Observing nature, the universe, and our own bodies reveals that everything we do—consciously or unconsciously—is karma. Whether large or small, every action is karma. Life begins with the first breath and continues until the last.
Now, let us share a breathing technique that will free you from excessive thinking, anger, insomnia, and other mental and physical ailments, while also enhancing your meditation practice.
