time since that which is done all at once will decay. Therefore it should be practised, of sages, little by little. When the tongue goes to the hole of Brahma (randhra) through the outer path, then one should place the tongue after moving the bolt of Brahma (randhra ) which cannot be mastered by the gods. One doing this for three years. enters Brahmadwara (or hole). On entering the Brahmadwara one should practise mathana (churning) well. Some intelligent men attain Siddhi even without mathana. One who is versed in Khechari Mantra accomplishes it without mathana. By doing the japa (in reciting the mantra) and mathana, one reaps the fruits soon. By connection a wire made of gold, silver, or iron with the nostrils by means of a thread soaked in milk, one should restrain his breath in his heart, and seated in a convenient posture with his eyes concentrated between his eyebrows he should perform mathana slowly. In six months the state of mathana becomes natural like sleep in children. And it is not advisable to do mathana always. It should be done (once) only in every month. An Yogi should not revolve his tongue in the path. After doing this for twelve years, Siddhi is surely obtained. He sees the whole universe in his body as not being different from Atma. This path of UrdhwaKundilini (the Kundilini going higher up), oh Chief n gs, leads to the Macrocosm. Thus ends the d Chapter.
