Pranayama is not breathing abnormally, it is the mastery of prana. Pranayama, as described by Rishi Patanjali is the natural cessation of breath (kumbhak). That is how yogis sitting in samadhi in the Himalayas survive in hostile environments for long periods of time without food, water, light, or even breath. They appear to be lying in a state of hibernation but it is a completely alert state, fully conscious with their awareness at its peak.

Pranayama can therefore, not be practised in alienation and has a much higher purpose than is being prescribed in mass orientations. A single pranayama is never done in isolation. It’s always a combination of hypo and hyper depending on an individuals chakra awakening level and state of body and mind.

What is Prana?

What is Prana?

The complete philosophy of Yoga is based on prana, and pranayama is one of the eight limbs of Ashtanga Yoga.

Prana is 'the force' in the universe. There is nothing devoid of prana in the entire Creation. Everything is prana, the only thing which distinguishes one from the other is the unique frequency of prana vibrating in them

Prana is also the life force in a living body. Breath, food, water etc. are all sources of prana. One can survive without breath but not prana, even for a second.

There are many hidden energies in creation.Through pranayama, yogic siddhis are possible and these hidden energies inside can be awakened. This can be seen in the sciences of clairvoyance and healing where one can see others' aura from a distance, as well as in thought manifestation. All of these are hidden powers and potentials inside the human body and pranayam awakens them.

With the practice of certain pranayamas, the yogic practitioner learns to derive prana from sources other than oxygen, food, water, etc., and is able to hold on to the prana for long periods without the body going into a state of trauma. Since the metabolic processes are stilled, the body ceases to age. The secret of forever youth of yogis. Pranayama also promotes the elongation of life and the sustenance of the physical body.


Pranayama itself is thus a whole other dimension. There are various tantras which talk only of pranayama and doing things solely through pranayamas. As you go into these learnings you will go deeper and deeper into the vedic sciences and a lot of secrets of creation will be revealed to you.

Pranayama uses breath to influence the flow of the prana in the body through the nadis (energy channels).

Guidance of the Guru

A word of caution, all pranayamas should only be done under the guidance of a Guru, as prana is the most potent energy, which needs to be channelised according to the individual's capacity. Wrong practice can damage the body beyond repair. Never forget each person is a unique frequency, his/her state of balance and requirements are also unique, therefore any yogic practice is done keeping the individual requirement in consideration. Wrong pranayam always results in problems
