    Dear Jennifer,

    >> and thanks for the posting of the Science of Breath. I have begun to
    use it. Since I have experience in the past with yaga it is a good
    refresher. I had abandoned it when Bardon said it was not necessary
    though, so I was curious about this conflict with his teachings,
    however, upon reading the material. after reading it I have come to
    terms with the 'Psychic breathing' aspect as being very similar to the
    Bardonian kind of breathing. What say you? <<

    Yes, Bardon's pore breathing of the VE is almost exactly the same as
    Ramacharaka's psychic breathing. There are just a couple of conceptual
    differences. To my mind, the thing of greatest significance for the
    Bardon work in Ramacharaka's book is the "yogic complete breath". Once
    the technique itself has been integrated, one can perform the complete
    breath within the parameters of the normal, unregulated breathing
    rhythm. In other words, without lengthening the breath, one can still
    do a complete breath. It's the alteration (i.e., lengthening of the
    inhale) of the breathing rhythm that isn't compatible with the Bardonian
    pore breathing, accumulation of VE, Elements, etc.

    Mastering the complete breath also makes for an excellent exercise in
    the Step Two, physical exercise of bodily discipline or control. Plus,
    maintaining the complete breath makes mastering Bardon's asana easier.

    My best to you,
    :) Rawn Clark
