About This Section of the Lecture
“If you would like to know how subtle prana is, every time you have a thought you disturb it…you send it in a different direction. Every time you have an emotional feeling, it influences the movement of prana. So if you can leave the prana alone, then you have dissolved the ahamkar, the ego…because the ego is continuously disturbing the flow of prana. So this is a very wonderful practice–to see the function of the ego, to dissolve it slowly and allow the intelligence of the prana to come back… This is how we meet the internal physician.”
In this section of the class, David guides the students through the ‘Four Levels of Prana’ and show us how to gain direct experience of the Life Force Intelligence, the intelligence of nature, as it exists within you. We begin to sense that the same life force that causes the sap to flow within the tree is also that which causes the flow of the fluids within your own physiology.
Below is an overview of the four levels of prana to help you remember. Enjoy the recording (more on the way!)
