Yoga-Breath of fire practice session:
Session was focused on the lower part of the body with a need of relatively more effort in the left thigh.
Life Force Energy:
Shift in practice: attempts at willing the energy downward versus soliciting it to rise as usual.
The energy aroused strongly about the chest outward to the extremities.
And attempts were made to maintain locks until the energy dissipates, along with momentary deep breaths to increase breathing capability.
Compression was executed in a limited fashion, as attention/ will power followed the energy as it spread/ manifested, encouraging it to spread further, as well as shed insight/ light into the subtle body.
One aspect of the compression is more about the trail of pain at this stage.
Bringing about an increased control over the life force energy.
Mind focus: a dynamic and exerted process of observing and analyzing by the mind and intellect.
There seems to be an altogether shift in the perception of the transcendental sound vibration, I am working to become more familiar with the change if it is actual and adjust to it.
It was perceived that the frequency at the right ear as usually attained was rather faint. However it was realized that this diffused and disorienting sound all around that makes it difficult to find a source was one that was perceived some time ago and described as a sea of crickets.
Searching for a good portion of the time did not point to a particular node, but it might have seemed that there at least one and that they were both at the left side with one more so to the center top.
Goals and Objectives–long term/ adjusted:
Subtle body detection: looking down in the trunk more.
Book Readings:
The "Yoga Sutras" of Pantajali; Enlightenment in practical terms!
Subtle body ventures or interests recalled synopses/ retell:
Family association.
Reflections:
Still thinking, lest I stop imagining!

Thousands of crickets sounding is the general naad sound which is heard even when one is not particularly listening to naad and might be focused on something else. Usually then it is heard high up in the back part of the head, seeming like it is outside of the head but very close to it at the back top.
This particular frequency of naad sound is a reminder that one is lost in the material world and needs to take a break to enter naad to get away from pressing social demands.
If one goes into a cave like yogis of antiquity did, this naad sound becomes very loud and one does not hear anything else. It is exactly like on nights in the tropical countries when one hears thousands of cricket chirping after sundown and then all of a sudden the crickets usually all stop and another type of silence sound kicks in. Then again during the night or before dawn sometimes the crickets all begin again and then at daybreak they stop again.
The sound is exactly like that. This means that you are actually on to the naad sound without a doubt.
You are also correct that a node is not found in this naad sound. This is true but if you listen carefully to it, you will find that there is a zone in it which seems to be shinny, like when one piece of polished brass is in container which has other dull pieces.
That polished piece attracts your attention. So with this naad you will find that there is that shinny part and you should go to it. That is the node.
The other type of naad node is a vibrational node like if there is a tuning fork, if you could see the sound emanating from it like say in a scan machine, it will have nodes for points from where the resonance emanates. So in naad there are also vibrational nodes but that is when your subtle body is on a higher plane, then you develop the senses to perceive them.
So much of this is based on developing supernatural senses, but you cannot command these senses to be produced by your will power. They develop out of long meditation practice over time.
