All intuition, inspiration and even miraculous powers are experienced through the magic action of the breath. The power of the breath, called kundalini by the Hindus, circulates within the spine along basic channels or 'nadis'. This most important subject is incorrectly disregarded by some who imagine that distress might be the result of opening up the chakras through the use of breathing exercises. It is like saying that the eyes of a child should never be opened to reality for fear of being exposed to temptations. All virtue lies in self-control, not in ignorance.
Life is only really worthwhile if it is lived fully.
Breath is the central theme to be considered in life since the breath governs the entire physical and mental mechanism of our being. Along with the importance of the purity of the breath channels, rhythm in breath is the magic key which can unlock all the treasures which the breath can offer. Rhythm is a natural tendency which is seen in all creation. No atom would move if it were not subject to the laws of rhythm. Orderliness in one's life is a sign of rhythm.
