| पञ्चमोध्यायः,-Pranayama, (Ch.-5, V.-40) |
चतुःष्ट्या मात्रया च कुम्भकेनैव धारयेत्। द्वात्रिंशन्मात्रया वायुं सूर्यनाड्या च रेचयेत् ॥४०॥ |
catuḥṣṭyā mātrayā ca kumbhakenaiva dhārayet। dvātriṃśanmātrayā vāyuṃ sūryanāḍyā ca recayet ॥40॥ |
Let him restrain the breath for a period of sixty-four repetitious of the Mantra. This is Kumbhaka. Then let him expel the air by the right nostril slowly during a period occupied by repeating the Mantra thirty-two times.
