Today's query, yesterday's answer

ANSWER: Yes, it is an exhalation!

QUERY:  Why are advanced pranayamas not taught casually or must not be practiced for long periods of time -- meaning several hours a day? Choose from the following...

a) They have lots of contraindications, including aggravating physical ailments.
b) Can make you more withdrawn, preparing u for brahmacharya state of mind, from society.
c) Can cause excessive heat in the body if the preparation is not adequate, in terms of sattvic diet, keeping the mind pure (from distractions, like media exposure, gossip).


Let's hear it from u:)
