The human brain is a highly volatile and explosive substance. If one practices any exercise pra.1ayama or so called meditation and controls it for some time no sooner does one stop such a practice (𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐢𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝟐𝟒 𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬) than this devil of a conscious brain will, with vengeance, torment the individual and normal life will be miserable. So it boils down to the fact that along with certain practices and exercises a certain type of pranayama should be included that can be relentlessly carried on for all twenty four hours. The key to this eternal vigilance is the introduction and establishment within the body-brain system of the 𝐓𝐇𝐑𝐄𝐄 𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐏 𝐑𝐇𝐘𝐓𝐇𝐌𝐈𝐂 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 ( 𝟑𝐒𝐑𝐁) the natural rhythmic breath we humans are born with. Only then will this conscious brain surrender, and when it does, the individual mind is no longer polluted the vision becomes pure and the mind turns inward. Over mind and brain we have no direct control.

Dear Friends,
Dear Friends,
When this ('𝐚𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭') state is total i.e. for twenty four hours, this state is paradigmatic state or the inherent design state of waking and sleep leading to '𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬', this awareness if total and permanent is the intuitive perception beginning state that sees and understands without any need of brain processes and is to be diligently established.
This is known normally as the doctrine of '𝐧𝐨 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝' '𝐧𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭' which clearly shows that the understanding about mind is faulty; for with mind there is no thought, only brain is responsible for brain processes or thought forms.
One can at will changes or pass from or to the state of brain processes to mind 'at rest' conditions in 𝟑𝐚 & 𝟑𝐛.

In Chapter XI we have stressed the need for one meal a day and how gradually we could come to that stage. We have however not discussed how much to eat, how to eat, and what factors effect food, and how. Food and drink, as we have seen, is one of the three ways in which the human body takes in coded impulses. Let us examine what care should be taken, and how.
It is an absolutely undeniable fact, whether we like it or not, that one should observe silence while eating. Besides this, the other rule we have to observe is that one good morsel for each hour of the day, i.e. twenty-four morsels in that one meal would be good quantity of food intake. These twenty-four morsels include desserts and everything else. This much for the actual food intake.

But all these remained exercises and one could not indulge the whole day in them and so for the rest of the day the old deep rooted memory patterns re-established their sway on the mind and brain. To avoid this many left homes for ashram life and adopted brahmacharya little realising that this was a big step to escape the realities of life; that God and Nature will force them again and again to ghrahasthi (householder) life style.
So, the sages finally arrived at a way of breathing; a natural, full twenty four hour rhythmic breathing (the last noted exponent was sage Patanjali) which could have the effect of the various special breathing exercises together with the noted asanas and that such a natural and effortless breathing technique based on sound scientific fact, would give the desired result.

Dear Friends,
This presupposes that the mind state which is one of 'at rest' always does not work through memory and so it's conclusions are free from prejudices of the past and free from the pairs of the opposites i.e. emotions. What is this 'at rest' condition of mind and therefore of the intuitive perception? No individual can live in this world and be free from the assaults of the world that impinge through the five senses and imagination. But in this state of mind 'at rest' seeing, hearing, etc. are experienced totally detached as one would a stranger and without analysis, remarks or suggestions, and this is possible because memory is not involved that creates such emotions and one is free from doubt, fear and uncertainty.

If we have, by now, cut down our hours of sleep, altered our food habits, and perfected the three-step rhythmic breathing, we have, indeed, gone a long way, though much still remains to be done. The one great additional advantage that will accrue will be saving of valuable time by cutting down the hours of sleep and much that still remains to be done can be profitably done during these hours.

We also know that normally unlearning is not possible. Yoga for long has tried to work with this indoctrinated human mind and brain, yet keeping in focus the absolute autonomous state of each human being no real success was possible. Hence at first entered the ideas of japa, tapa, bhajans and satsangs. This did not help though till today many indulge in such escape methods. So what was or is the remedy for the mass of humanity? The sages who discovered the science of svar-nadi relationship realised that the breath is a powerful and tremendous force. At first they came out with various breathings aided by various asanas. Hence creation of the important branch of Hatha Yoga. Side by side originated the Bhakti Yoga, Gnana Yoga, Laya Yoga, Raj Yoga and so forth.

Dear All,

Shri Rajen Vakil will be continuing his online series on the Yogasutras (in English) on Sat, 27th September 2025 at 7 pm IST

Topic - Patanjali's Yogasutras (Talk 42 Book I, Sutra 43 continued)

Details - Sutra 43 says - स्मृतिपरिशुद्धौ स्वरूपशून्येवार्थमात्रनिर्भासा निर्वितर्का

which is translated as "Nirvitarka [samāpatti] happens on the purification of memory. It is as though [citta] empties itself of identity. There is a shining of the object alone.”

Tavariaji translates this as “Perception without judicial reasoning (or intuition) is arrived at when the memory no longer holds control, the word and the object are transcended, and only the idea is present. “

Let’s delve deeper together and understand this sutra.

Date and time - Sat, 27th Sep, from 7 to 8 pm IST
