Trishikhi Brahmanopanishad (Sanskrit Edition)

Trishikhi Brahmanopanishad is Volume 7 in the Yoga Upanishad series. * A brahma?a goes to aditya-loka, the world of the Sun to ask: "O Lord! What is the body? What is the breath? What is the cause? What is the soul?" The Sun replies that all comes from the form of Siva, whose light is Brahman. Then follows explanations of how the world was formed through the five major elements, their qualities, properties and functions, their synthesis and through pañcikara?a, the divisions and combinations of the elements. The brahma?a is advised to follow both the eightfold path of yoga leading to jñana and the path of karmayoga or kriyayoga. Renunciation and satsang, company of the wise, are emphasised. Teachings are given of the subtle body, viz. cakras, ko?as, na?is, pra?as, dhatus, four states of consciousness ku??alini and atman as well as the agni ma??ala, the region of fire and its role in awakening the subtle energies, and the na?ikanda, where the three main na?is, i?a pi?gala and su?umna, unite and separate. The main pra?ayama practices are na?i sodhana and kumbhaka. A peaceful solitary place in nature is recommended for progress in sadhana. Signs of approaching death are described. Practices for meditation with ?a?mukhi mudra, h?dayañjali mudra or khecari mudra are: the five elements; the deities of the elements; Vasudeva, the Transcendent Self; Vi??u; and the forms in the Universe. 9780648910770 0648910776 0 BOOK Body, Mind & Spirit NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=2JQ-0AEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api sa
