The energy of tranquility

While holding and after exhalation

Kumbhita Rechita Vaapi Poorita Ya Yada Bhaveth
Tadante Shanthanamasau Shaktya Shaanthah Prakashate

When you draw in the breath, along with the Prana and hold it for a while or exhale, completely, be in those few moments of emptiness. There is a certain energy called Shanti or peace. In fact, it is tranquility. In that tranquil state, shakti or energy, which is the first manifestation of consciousness, shines.
