Watched the video, I can tell your breathing very deeply and quickly, holding breathes I just can’t really grasp it from the video if you could maybe give me an explanation of what you’re doing. Appreciated!

There are some other videos. These were put up by Bernard, I guess. I will ask him to put up the older ones and then we can discuss this.
=============================
That is bhastrika pranayama process. It begins with what is called kapala bhati breath which is rapid breathing with focus on the exhale. In bhastrika which is a more advanced stage because it takes more concentration, focus is both on the exhale and inhale with more emphasis on the inhale. So what is that all about? Why do that? Why not be satisfied with normal breathing? Normal breathing is not designed for anything but survival of the material body. Under normal healthy circumstances, for normal breathing your attention is not required. Some bodies keep breathing on their own when the person is unconscious. Doctors are able to keep a body alive for hours or days or sometimes weeks or months by providing a steady air supply to the lungs in rhythmic machine pumping of air. So that means that there is something in the psyche besides your objective I-self, which uses air to maintain minimum awareness in the body. The breathing I do concerns kundalini yoga which is a process for surcharging kundalini or the life force on a daily basis, twice per day. This provides the life force with more energy so that it may maintain itself in a higher state of consciousness with more memory capability and awareness sensitivity. Most religious system focuses on dealing with the subtle body or the psychic side of existence after death. Their idea is that you can comply with the religious beliefs now and then subsequently you will be rewarded after death by going to heaven or to some other special place with a deity or for blissful happiness. The system of kundalini yoga is for bypassing these religious beliefs and to strive to experience heavenly states and the subtle body now, before the physical system passes away. By surcharging the subtle body one gains increase dream recall, increase incidence of astral projection and experience of other dimensions. If you can surcharge the life force in the body, the subtle body is freed from having to invest so much energy on the material side and then it is able to realize its psychic potentials.
