TRANSLATION
The meditative devotee 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, slowly, and search out the proper places with intelligence.
PURPORT
There are six circles of the movement of the life air, and the intelligent  bhakti-yogi  should search out the places with intelligence and in a meditative mood. Among these, mentioned above is the  svādhiṣṭhāna-cakra , or the powerhouse of the life air, and above this, just below the abdomen navel, there is the  maṇipūraka-cakra . When upper space is further searched out in the heart, it is called the  anāhata-cakra , and further up, when it is placed at the root of the palate, it is called the  viśuddhi-cakra .
