The book is about the secret ancient science of breathing which had its origin in the dialogues between Lord Siva and his consort Parvati (Sakti) in ancient Sanskrit text Siva-Svarodaya. Modern science makes no distinction in breathing from left and right nostrils. Its periodical changes appear to be nature’s hidden mystery. Breath (Prana), the life-force or vital energy, forms the ethereal body and surrounds the physical body of all creatures. It is the basis of all movements, sounds and vibrations, interconnected with body, mind and spirit. It makes unified field of various cosmic energies working in the human body (microcosm) and the universe (macrocosm) covering tattvas (elements), Kosas (sheaths), Cakras (energy centres) in a subtle body and the levels of consciousness. Prana or Reiki or spiritual healing is systematisation of that phenomenon. The concept of channels (prana nadis) and energy centres has also been discussed. The book is a must to maintain good health, harmony and happiness.
