"Some others offer the outgoing breath to the incoming breath and the incoming breath to the outgoing breath; in this way checking the flow of both the incoming and outgoing breaths they arduously practice breath control. Others strictly reducing their food intake offer the senses into the life breath".
(Bhagavad Gita IV, 29))
This masterly verse of the Song of God, the most important Holy text of the Hindu scripture, says this old breathing technique, called in modern ages Rebirthing by Leonard Orr, in Sanskrit was called Pranapaganati and was known and followed by Hindu and Buddhist. The Pranapaganati passed from Master to follower through initiation and his primary goal was the Spiritual Rebirth of man.
Rebirthing means literally rebirth, like a change and a new discover of oneself; a chance to live again psychophysical and emotional experiences of birth and our pre- natal life.
