Breath

The one thing that we do without thinking is ….breathing.Have we ever stopped and THOT abt it?? How important its is to us?? Hey! its free.. why do we need to think abt it? , you may say..but what if i told you…if you stop.think.and breath properly…you could actually live longer!.

Many Illustrations could be given of the mathematical relationship between man’s(and of course woman’s too) respiratory rate and the variations in his/her state of consciousness.A person whose attention is wholly engrossed, as in the following some closely knit intellectual argument, or in attempting some delicate or difficult physical feat, automatically breaths very slowly.Fixity of attention depends on slow breathing; quick or uneven breaths are an inevitable, accompaniment of harmful emotional states: fear,lust,anger.The restless monkey breaths at rate of 32 times per min.,in contrast to a man’s average of 18 times.The elephant,tortoise, snake and other creatures note for their longevity have a respiratory rate that is less then man’s.The gaint tortoise, for instance, which may attain the age of three hundred years(Remember Nemo), breaths only 4 times a min.

The rejuvenating effects of sleep are due to man’s temporary unawareness of body and breathing.The sleeping man becames a yogi; each nite he unconsciously performs the yogic rite of releasing himself of bodily identification, and of merging the life force with the healing currents in the main brain region and in the six subdynamos of his spinal centres.Unknowingly, the sleeper is thus recharged by the cosmic energy that sustains all life.

So the next time you breath…stop and think, do you wanna live longer with proper breathing or breath like the restless Monkey?…but which ever you decide.. do not STOP and think too long…you may die of shortness of breath.

Now take a deep breath ….
