apāne juhvati prāṇaṃ prāṇe’pānaṃ tathā’pare | CommentaryOther Karma Yogins are devoted to the practice of breath control (prāṇāyāma) which has three actions — Pūraka (inspiration) is that [sacrifice] in which the inward breath is sacrificed into the outward breath. Recaka (expiration) is that in which the outward breath is sacrificed in the inward breath. Kumbhaka (retention of breath) is the sacrifice when the flow of both inward and outward breaths is stopped. |
