PLATE FOUR
By the strength of scientific knowledge of transcendence, the meditative devotee should be well situated in absolute realization and thus be able to extinguish all material desires. Then he can give up the material body by blocking with his heel the air hole through which stool is evacuated and then lifting the life air progressively through the six primary places. Slowly, searching out the proper places with intelligence, he should push up the life air from the navel to the heart, from there to the chest, and from there to the root of the palate. Thereafter, he should push up the life air to the space between the eyebrows, and then, blocking up the seven outlets of the life air, he should maintain his aim for going back home, back to Godhead. If he is completely free from all desires for material enjoyment, he should then reach the cerebral hole and give up this material connection, having gone to the Supreme. ( pp. 99-102 )
