The nadis are the subtle nerves and ida and pingala are associated with the left and right nostrils. The prana or life-force generates our external life and our psychological life. Both ida and pingala rise and subside in the space of Consciousness, the sushumna, which can also be accessed by focusing on the space between two breaths.

The technique I am describing here is different from the focus on the space between two breaths. Rather, keep the attention on the inbreath and the outbreath and be alert for the third breath, which is sushumna, the manifestation of the Self. That third breath will arise by itself spontaneously.

Through the inner contemplation of the inbreath and the outbreath, the third breath, kundalini Shakti, is revealed. The third breath does not go in and out of the body, but rises up the sushumna. It is the hidden river known only to yogis. Fittingly, in 1971, as the bus I was in, filled with pilgrims, paused to admire the confluence of the Ganges and Yamuna at Allahabad, suddenly Neem Karoli Baba appeared on the other side of the bus. I felt that mystically the third river had revealed itself in his person.
