तीव्रसंवेगानाम आसन्नः ॥२१॥ = tīvrasaṃvegānām āsannaḥ

For those who practice forcefully, in a very intense way, the skill of yoga will be achieved very soon.

AM

Woke up at 5:00 AM (Brahma-Muhurta). Practiced yoga all day.

Austerities:

1.   Social interaction kept to a bare minimum, so as to concentrate fully on the practice of yoga.

2.   Restrictive diet on track. No solid food after lunch.

Study: Study of same spiritual books from same author, including summary, drawings and notes, continued. Read also Swami Shivananda’s “Kundalini Yoga”.

Additional Spiritual Practice:

1.    Tratak on Sun for 2.5 minutes.

2.    Conducted rounds of Thokar Kriya prânâyâma in between practices.

Breath Infusion: Practice of 35 minutes was good for the AM.

Meditation: Meditation on Naad for 30 minutes.

Dream recall: 1 dream recalled.

PM

Strong prânâyâma practice for 30 minutes.

Meditation was good. Naad was quite strong throughout the back of the head and led the meditation most of the time with few interruptions.
