Guest guest Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 achieve which you will have no problem. If you want that lung power to increase - 1. Monitor your breathing frequency at all times and make effort to slow that down. 2. To increase lung power - do Paranyama as Swami suggests in Dhyana vahini. Pull in breath to the fullest in 5 seconds and exhale in 5 seconds. Increase this inhale exhale time gradually. As you progress you may hold your breath for half the inhale / exhale time after inhaling. It is important that you focus on Swami while doing this - this will help you in meditation.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 Om Sri Sai Ram. I wish to appreciate and thank bro Jatindar Shad for the wonderful piece of info provided to the group. May Swamy Bless him and all of you and guide you all in your meditation attempts. One small correction what mithun has said below. It is NOT "1 or 2 times breathing in 1 minute"... what it might mean is , try to reduce BY 1 or 2 times in 1 minute.....say in 1 minute you normally breath 12 cycles ( both inhale & exhale )... in meditation SLOWLY try to reduce this cyle to 11 or 10 in 1 minute... Please note that care should be taken NOT to strain the body resulting in unwanted results... Devotees are requested NOT to follow any bookish exercise in such practices.. utmost devotion and surrender to Swamy pleading for guidance will take them gradually in the path. ( I also learnt from some eminant yoga teachers, that in the breathing cycle, holding of breath inside - after inhale - is NOT ADVISABLE - for normal householders) Jai Sai Ram.
