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 minimum.

2.    Restrictive diet and daily fast on track. Citric diet.

Study: Study of same spiritual books from same author, including summary, drawings and notes, continued.

Additional Practices: Conducted rounds of 2nd-Kriya prânâyâma between the AM and PM sessions.

Breath Infusion: Practice of 30 minutes. Continued the practice of breathing from the navel. At this point in my practice the navel does not heat up anymore as before, perhaps due to having done the breath infusion twice daily for a while.

Meditation: Meditation on Naad for 25 minutes.

Dream recall: 2 dreams recalled.

PM

Strong prânâyâma practice for 35 minutes. Continued training myself to breathe from the navel in order to conquer the navel chakra.

Meditation for 30 minutes on Naad.
